【出版の背景・目的】

アジアインフラ投資銀行(AIIB)[1]は、中国主導で設立したアジアのインフラ整備を支援する国際開発金融機関。2013年に中国の習近平国家主席が創設を提唱し、2016年1月に開業した。創設メンバーはインド、英国、ドイツ、フランスなど57か国で、2022年10月末現在は加盟国として105か国・地域を認可している。日本とアメリカは、運営の透明性の欠如等を理由に参加を見送っている。本書はAIIBについて、グローバル経済ガバナンスの文脈と中国からの視点の説明を目的としている。

【本書のポイント】

本書はAIIBの概説のあと、いくつかのトピックに焦点を当てている。
第1部はAIIBの概要であり、特徴となっている中国による事実上の拒否権や、理事会は常設とはしないこと等の説明も含まれている。第2部はAIIBが資金供与するプロジェクト向けの機材やサービスの調達の方針、第3部はAIIB(とその職員や資産等)への免責の観点から見た加盟国との法的関係、第4部はAIIBによる紛争処理メカニズムについて説明している。
全体について、国際復興開発銀行(IBRD、または世界銀行)[2]、アフリカ開発銀行(AfDB)[3]、アジア開発銀行(ADB)[4]、欧州復興開発銀行(EBRD)[5]、米州開発銀行(IDB)[6]の参照や比較がなされている。
