China's' new  Asia Infrastructure Investment Bank is drawing controversy from the U.S who is opposed to its' development because it might challenge the world bank and other internationally funded institutions. the scholarly sources I've chose talk about The influence the U.S holds over international monetary institutions   and the economic relationship between China and the U.S.

• Purpose: An Empirical Assessment of Informal Influence in the World Bank is written to illuminate on the question of  which countries have influence in international monetary institutions . In Sino-Capitalism: China's Reemergence and International Political Economy the writer seeks to contrast the relationship between the U.S and China economies . The purpose of these two articles is to inform students of this study to be used as resources in future papers.

• How and Where it was published: The Empirical Assessment was published by the University of Chicago Press in the Economic Development and Cultural Change journal. Sino-Capitalism was published by Cambridge University Press in the World Politics journal

• What kind of Sources Does it Cite: Empirical Assessment cites 41 references from other  journals and academic sources such as the International Studies Quarterly and the European Economic Review. Sino-Capitalism cites 247 references from authors of academic sources as well.

• Author: The  author of Empirical Assessment is Christopher Kilby  , an associate professor  of economics at the Villanova school of Business at Villanova University in Pennsylvania . The author of Sino-Capitalism is Dr. Christopher A. McNally a political economist who earned his PhD at the University of Washington.  

• Intended Audience: The intended audience is other academic scholars in this discipline who , I would assume, have prior knowledge in this field.

• How I found it: I found both sources through The University of Arizona Library database, JSTOR
