This book focuses on the multi-national perspectives of BRI with an underlying observation that BRIs geo-politically driven economic development approach exhibits significant differences from the US and European precedents of the previous centuries. Publisher Description International Perspectives on the Belt and Road Initiative investigates the most significant globalscale international trade expansion and capital investment programme since the Second World War.This book focusses on the multi-national perspectives of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) in order to interrogate the Chinese governments representation of it as a symbol of "peace, cooperation, development and mutual benefit." With specific focus on the interrelationship between geopolitics, infrastructure investments and urban regional development, the book reflects on 12 countries experiences in depth, including those of Iran, Pakistan, Brazil, Thailand, Indonesia, Japan and Ethiopia, specificly to their economic development levels, political systems, power dynamics and socio-environmental issues. The book clarifies and contributes new knowledge on the nature of BRI concerning its relationship to globalism, neo-colonialism, the notion of developed vs developing countries and their institutions and macro-micro benefits and impacts. In doing so, the book offers a balanced account of the antagonistic geo-political narrative of socio-political conflict and the collaborative framework of real socio-economic flows and development.The book will appeal to academics, researchers and policy-makers with an interest in the BRI and its impacts on politico-economic development and urban, regional and spatial systems in the Indo-Pacific and beyond.
