Join us in this episode as we unpack “Global Perspectives on China’s Belt and Road Initiative,” edited by Florian Schneider. Discover the fascinating interplay of voices and influences that shape this monumental project. We’ll explore how a diverse array of actors—ranging from grassroots organizations to international stakeholders—impact the decision-making and implementation of BRI initiatives. Rather than seeing nations as singular entities, we’ll reveal the rich tapestry of interactions that drive this global endeavor. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of how collaboration and competition coexist in this transformative initiative!
