The Belt and Road Initiative: What will China Offer the World in Its Rise Kindle Edition

by Wang Yiwei (Author) Format: Kindle Edition

See all formats and editions
This book presents an authoritative interpretation of the Belt and Road Initiative by Professor Wang Yiwei, a distinguished expert on international issues. It is China's first book to explain the Belt and Road Initiative from the perspective of international relations. The author points out that the Belt and Road Initiative embodies the inherent logic of China's all-round opening-up, demonstrates the inevitable trend of human civilization revival, reflects the necessary requirements of inclusive globalization, and marks China's fundamental transformation from being a participator to a shaper of globalization. The Belt and Road Initiative is a great proposal put forward by China. It is a result of international cooperation, which is faced with opportunities in terms of China's all-round opening up, peripheral diplomacy, regional cooperation and global development, as well as risks in security economic, moral and legal fields. All these are interpreted through a dialectical approach in this book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Author's Focus is on the Economic Intent of this Project
    Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2019

    I enjoy seeing new and impressive infrastructure projects and have enjoyed watching documentaries and reading books on China's Belt and Road Initiative. I was surprised to see the project was somewhat controversial with respect to their intentions so I read more about their economic and commercial goals in funding these projects. The author is a Chinese professor who has a great deal of experience in following their economy. In reading this you get the Chinese perspective of what they hope to gain by all this economic activities. The author gives a honest opinion of what this will mean for China's economic standing in the world and discusses this effort in some detail. Its not my perspective but it is nice to read an honest observation from a USA competitor.

    I have been impressed with the amount of and advanced architecture and engineering of the recent buildings and infrastructure in the Asian and Arab areas of the world which is starting to make American cities look dated. One of the major subjects that is not covered in the book is how and whether all these countries which are receiving all this aid will ever be able to increase their economies to pay for all this building. I imagine that story will be covered in future studies and writings.

    While China publishes many works on the "One Belt One Road" initiative, few are printed in English. I enjoyed reading this.
