A, Bouroubi & M, Okbi The role of Japanese economic diplomacy in promoting trade with Africa

Abstract

Many countries have been aware of the development of their trade exchanges, especially after the global economic crises, using their economic diplomacy to conclude trade and economic agreements.This study has shed light on Japan's approach to economic diplomacy and its implications for its international trade with the African region (south africa, nigeria, algeria, liberia, egypt, kenya, …).The study concluded that Japan's economic diplomacy had very little impact on its trade with Africa in terms of geographic remoteness and economic risks.
