Kevin Gallagher, Professor of Global Development Policy and Director of the Global Development Policy Center at the Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies at Boston University, was recently interviewed for an article on China’s growing influence in Latin America in light of perceived weakened ties between the United States and Latin America under the Trump administration. 

Gallagher was quoted in a February 9, 2018 article in CNN Money entitled “China Sees an Opening as Trump Loses Confidence of Latin America.

From the text of the article:

“Literally and figuratively, the Trump administration is building walls against Latin America,” says Kevin Gallagher, an expert on China-Latin America relations at Boston University. “The Chinese are proposing to build bridges, and they’re actually doing it.”

Gallagher served on the U.S. Department of State’s Investment Subcommittee of the Advisory Committee on International Economic Policy and the International Investment Division of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development.  He has served as a visiting or adjunct professor at the Paul Nitze School for Advanced International Studies at Johns Hopkins University, the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, Tufts University; El Colegio de Mexico in Mexico; Tsinghua University in China; and the Center for State and Society in Argentina.
