There is escalating concern over BRI's potential environmental impacts in Southeast Asia, a global biodiversity hotspot and a focus area of BRI development. Case studies of Indonesia, Myanmar, Lao PDR and Malaysia show that the success of BRI in bringing about sustainable growth and opportunities depends on the Chinese government and financiers, as well as the agencies and governments involved when BRI investments take place. The adoption of best environmental practices is critical in ensuring that growth is sustainable and that bad environmental practices are not locked in for decades to come. 410 0$aTrends in Southeast Asia ;$vNumber 18. 606 $aInvestments, Chinese$zSoutheast Asia 615 0$aInvestments, Chinese 676 $a382.30951 700 $aLechner$b Alex M.$01139139 712 02$aISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818320503321 996 $aThe belt and road initiative$94089082 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03283nam 22005775 450 001 9910407723203321 005 20230810230707.0 010 $a9789811547089 010 $a9811547084 024 7 $a10.1007/978-981-15-4708-9 035 $a(CKB)4100000011280844 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6221632 035 $a(DE-He213)978-981-15-4708-9 035 $a(PPN)259454583 035 $a(Perlego)3481165 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000011280844 100 $a20200605d2020 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 14$aThe Prequel to China's New Silk Road $ePreparing the Ground in Central Asia /$fby Tilman Pradt 205 $a1st ed. 2020. 210 1$aSingapore :$cSpringer Nature Singapore :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2020. 215 $a1 online resource (ix, 126 pages) 311 08$a9789811547072 311 08$a9811547076 327 $a1.

Status Quo of BRI & Outlook. 330 $aThis book offers the prequel to China's successful implementation of its New Silk Road, the so-called Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). The preconditions for the establishment of especially the land route between China and Western Europe have been set decades ago in Central Asia. In the political, security, and economic realms, China had to find arrangements with Russia as well as the Central Asian states. Border disputes had to be resolved, a security architecture and political cooperation was lacking. The key to BRI's success today lies in China's successful diplomacy of the 1990s and 2000s. This book tells the exciting story behind the largest geopolitical infrastructure project of our time. Tilman Pradt is a geopolitical analyst and consultant based in Berlin.
