This globe-spanning strategy has reshaped local economies and regionals networks, and it has become a contested subject for scholars and practitioners alike. How should we make sense of the complex interactions that the BRI has enabled? Understanding these processes requires truly global perspectives alongside careful attention to the role that local actors play in giving shape to individual BRI projects. The contributions in this volume provide both 'big picture' assessments of China's role in regional and global interactions and detailed case studies that home in on the role agency plays in BRI dynamics. Written by leading area studies scholars with diverse disciplinary expertise, this book reveals how Chinese efforts to recalibrate the world are taken up, challenged, revamped, and reworked in diverse contexts around the world. 606 $aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / International Relations / General$2bisacsh 610 $aAgency. 610 $aBRI. 610 $aBelt and Road Initiative. 610 $aChina. 610 $aConnectivity. 615 7$aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / International Relations / General. 676 $a382/.30951 702 $aFerchen$b Matt$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aForough$b Mohammadbagher$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aGhiasy$b Richard$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aGonzalez-Vicente$b Ruben$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aKuik$b Cheng-Chwee$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aLinks$b Stacey$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aLugt$b Sanne van der$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aMosquera Valderrama$b Irma Johanna$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aPetkova$b Mirela$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aPutten$b Frans-Paul van der$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aSampson$b Michael$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aSchneider$b Florian$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aSchneider$b Florian$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aWang$b Jue$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $ad'Hooghe$b Ingrid$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996411335903316 996 $aGlobal Perspectives on China's Belt and Road Initiative$92263046 997 $aUNISA
