This handbook critically analyses and examines the impact of China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) geostrategy in Eurasia. Over the last decade, the BRI contributed to China becoming an economic and political superpower, but the Russo-Ukrainian War brought seismic geopolitical and geoeconomic impacts and a new struggle between great powers. Covering the impact of the BRI and the positions of other great, middle, and small powers, the ten parts explain the geopolitical and geoeconomic dynamics along the Silk Road Economic Belt's six major economic corridors, implementing case studies on Europe, South Caucasus, Central Asia, Russian Far East, Middle East, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and East Asia.Expert scholars from East, West, North, and South engage with BRI concepts to create a book that will be of interest to policymakers, businesspeople, scholars, and students of area studies, cybersecurity and digitalisation, economics, security studies, the politics of international trade, foreign policy, global governance, and international organisations.
