Routledge Series on the Belt and Road Initiative

The Routledge Series on the Belt and Road Initiative publishes peer-reviewed scholarly contributions in the wider context of International Relations, International Political Economy, Global Governance, Security, Geopolitics, and Geo-economy.

The series offers a venue for monographs and edited volumes making substantial contributions to the ongoing debate on the origin, processes and impacts of China’s BRI. Examining the related tools of diplomacy, trade, investment, finance and security and their impact on countries, regions, continents, global governance, security, international and multilateral institutions, the series draws together key thinking on the BRI as it continues to development and forge links around the world.
