The Case of the Belt and Road Initiative
The manuscript offers insights into precisely how the B&RI boosts China’s international momentum and worldwide globalization, and explores the significance of various crossing-cutting issues, such as digital corridors, AI and the health Silk Road. Furthermore, the book highlights how the B&RI creates less Western-centric globalization, actively reflecting an Asia-Pacific outlook.
This handbook offers readers various perspectives on globalization and multilateralism with Chinese characteristics. Its originality is derived from the hybrid approaches the handbook takes, where chapters provide complementary, intertwined, and multi-level analysis on the topic. Based on contributions of scholars and practitioners from a number of countries, the handbook helps readers to comprehend ongoing debates on the Belt and Road Initiative and global governance, within a shifting balance of world power, characterized by competing views between Western and Chinese norms, standards, values, and narratives.
Split into three Parts, and consisting of 46 chapters, the handbook views globalization as comprehensive concept that benefits from the contributions of various disciplines such as geography, geo-economics, political science and international relations. In producing one of the most ambitious and updated outputs on the topic, the handbook as a whole seeks to discuss what globalization with Chinese characteristics looks like, and the role of the Belt and Road Initiative in this process.
The book has been catalogued as International Relations and Political Science.
