Foreign assistance is an important part of international development cooperation，It is a bond connecting domestic development and global development，It is also a channel for helping the country's development experience to share and diffuse。Enter the 21st century，With the continuous growth of China's foreign aid scale and the continuous increase in international influence，China's foreign aid has become an important topic for the joint attention of academic and policy circles。The impact of assistance allocation and assistance is the one -in -one wings of China's foreign aid research。Why China and how to provide assistance to other countries，What impact does China's foreign aid project have on the recipient country，These two problems are the core issues in China's foreign aid research。Where，"Spatial Analysis of China's Foreign Aid" is the most prominent feature in the cutting -edge research on foreign aid in China in the past few years。

"Space Revolution" is a major feature of the development of social science in the 21st century，More and more researchers use geographical information data and related spatial analysis technology to carry out scientific research。The research team of William Mary College in 2018 announced the geographical information data of China's global aid projects，This becomes the "first year" of China's foreign aid space analysis。Geographical information Bet365 lotto review and spatial analysis methods through assisting projects，Assist project data and local national governance、Data between economic development and social surveys becomes reality，This brings the academic wave of China's foreign aid space analysis。For example，Matching the location of the assistance items with the support of the Night Lighting of the Aid China，Researchers can analyze the relationship between Chinese foreign aid projects and local economic activity。

On the one hand，The emergence of the geographical information data of the aid project enables the analysis unit to be micro，Improving the scientific and credibility of the study。Most of the analysis units of traditional foreign aid focus on the national level，Discuss the relationship between the scale of assistance and the economic growth of the country's country，But such a study ignored the space limit of the role of aid project。For example，The assistance project of Duoduo Mama is difficult to generate cause and effect with the economic growth of Benba Island，But by using geographical information data，Researchers can analyze the accurate spatial range of the development impact and impact of the aid project on the surrounding range (such as 25 kilometers)。

On the other hand，The spatial analysis of assistance is also promoted with causal recognition methods。Generally speaking，Local influence of research aid projects，Scholars can analyze the differences in the region of China's foreign aid projects，can also analyze the differences before and after the arrival of assistance projects in the same area。But the Bet365 app download existing data, especially a large amount of existing social survey data，There is no possibility of two interviews about the same interviewee before and after assistance。If there is only aid assistance and the differences in the impact of the people without assistance on the people，Then this difference may be produced due to the location choice preferences of the aid project，The role of not aid projects。To overcome this endogenous problem，A method called "Candidate List Control Law" is used in the causal effect recognition of Chinese foreign aid。

The goal of foreign aid in China 

In the past, when using national -level data to analyze the problem of foreign aid in China，It is found that China ’s foreign aid is more oriented with good political relations with China、A country with close economic and trade relations and support China's sovereignty。But even the national level analysis can answer why China's foreign aid should choose a specific country instead of other countries，It is impossible to answer why it is the same domestically aid domestic，Some regions have accepted more Chinese assistance，Some regions have received less China assistance，No region has not received China assistance。

The emergence of geographical information data for foreign aid in China makes researchers scientifically analyzes the law of Chinese foreign aid projects in the internal spatial distribution of Chinese foreign aid。For example，By matching the geographical location of China's African aid projects with the geographical grid of African countries，Researchers can capture the economic and social bet365 best casino games characteristics of China where the non -assistance project is located。Research indicates，China's foreign aid project selection tends to be close to the capital and relatively developed areas near the aid country，Avoid the marginal ethnic area，Affected by the distribution of resources in the country is not obvious。

The effectiveness of China's foreign aid 

The influence of assistance, especially the impact on the country of recipients, has been in controversy。Space analysis provides strong evidence support for the effectiveness of China's foreign aid。Most of the empirical research results based on geographical information data analysis indicate，China's foreign aid brings a positive economic and social impact on the development of the recipient country。China's foreign aid not only promotes economic growth at the national level at the national level，Effectively reduced the degree of inequality of local economic development，improved the employment level of the local people。China's foreign aid project can also be improved by improving the infrastructure construction and industrialization of the aid country，So as to reduce the frequency of domestic conflict in the country。

China's foreign aid also helps improve the national governance capabilities of the national aid。The relationship between China ’s foreign aid and the governance of the country’ s governance of the country is a long -term neglected research topic。Latest Studies Digesty，There is cause and effect correlation between the two。For example，By matching the location of the assistance project with African people, it Bet365 lotto review matches the government's performance evaluation data，It is found that China's foreign aid project effectively improves the performance legality of the local government。This reveals how China's foreign aid has enhanced the government ability of the country in governance and governing the country，Then promote the independent development of the recipient country。

Future research direction outlook 

The spatial analysis of China's foreign aid has expanded the scientific understanding of the academic community for China's foreign aid。The spatial analysis of China's foreign aid is not only helpful to understand the geographical distribution rules and characteristics of Chinese foreign projects，It also provides empirical support for China's foreign aid。Of course，There are still some difficulties and challenges in the spatial analysis of China's foreign aid，For example, in the availability of data、The theoretical foundation and causality recognition methods still need to be continuously improved。

First, strengthen theoretical refinement of China's foreign aid practice。Compared with technology and data update，The innovation of social scientific knowledge finally relies on theoretical breakthrough，China's foreign aid research is the same。Although there are many studies and analysis of the differences in distribution and influence in Chinese and Western traditional assistance，But still lacks the theoretical paradigm that explains the in -depth cause of such differences。

Second, integrate research wisdom in different disciplines。Foreign assistance is a cross -disciplinary research topic，Political Science、International relations、Sociology、Economics、Bet365 lotto review International Development、Regional National Studies and International Public Policy areas can provide them with theoretical literacy or empirical support。

Third is to integrate different research paradigms and analysis methods。The spatial analysis method can provide regular understanding and evidence，But it cannot fully reveal the causal mechanism of foreign aid phenomena。The qualitative research method, especially the long -term tracking and in -depth analysis of specific types of assistance projects, is more likely to provide a reliable causal mechanism。

Fourth is to speed up the underlying knowledge supply of China's foreign aid。Chinese scholars should actively play the host advantage，Make up for the academic "shortcomings" in related fields，Research on China's foreign aid system and mechanism，Provide underlying knowledge for the in -depth advancement of China's foreign aid。

Five is to strengthen the interactive research on China's foreign aid and global governance。Global sharing of development experience in China requires Chinese foreign aid、The benign interaction and mutual plastic of international development cooperation and global governance。Chinese scholars should start more interaction and communication with domestic and foreign policy institutions，Kangzhuang Avenue, which jointly explores and builds the world's common development。
