The Structural Challenges of Transnationalizing the China-led BRI

It examines the implications and structural challenges of the China-led BRI in Pakistan at the domestic, geopolitical, and geo-economic levels, focusing on 2013–2023 within the broader timeframe o…

Brazilian Perception of the China-Led Belt and Road Initiative
In the past two decades, Brazil and China have deepened their political cooperation and intensified their economic relations. They have done so by founding multilateral institutions, such as BRICS and the New Development Bank. However, Brazil’s policymakers have not accepted China’s proposal to sign a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). This article examines why and how Brazil— China relations have evolved to …

Why Did China's Rise Succeed and Iran's Fail? the Political Economy of Development in China and Iran
There are many shared historical experiences and similarities between Iran and China. Both are legacies of the long-lasting empires and civilisations in West and East Asia, respectively. Like other great Asian empires, Iran and China were confronted with the expansion of the European imperial powers in the early-nineteenth century which ultimately led to the dislocation of these ancient empires. Both countries had resisted pressures towards perip…
Energy and Environment in China and the European Union
China’s Geopolitical Economy of Energy Security
China’s transition to an urban-industrial society relies predominantly on its abundant domestic coal supplies and, secondly, on an increase in oil and gas imports. For this reason, China’s strategic investments in the oil and gas industries of resource-rich, energy-exporting countries have vastly increased. Given the high levels of import-dependency, the domestic power-wealth structures in China rely on uninterrupted supplies from beyond state bo…
The eu-Energy Security and Geopolitical Economy
Although energy supply security is an important long-term goal of the eu , member states are in control over external supplies and their domestic energy mix, and an overarching institutional structure is lacking. In this paper, we focus on the availability of oil and gas and the risks of supply disruptions for the eu . The last two decades have been marked by a decrease in fossil fuel production and increasing import dependence. Proven oil and ga…
China’s Statist Energy Relations with Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan
During the last decade, China’s diplomatic, economic, security and multilateral relations with Resource-Rich Countries ( rrc s) in general, and with Central Asia and the Caspian Region ( cacr ) in particular, created a regional web of complementarity connecting states and societies. This trend reflects a dimension of the “statist globalization” of the Chinese economy. Chinese National Oil Companies ( cnoc s) are powerful actors within this emergi…
