“…It is believed that the BRI is a regional strategic initiative that emphasizes partnership. This is in line with the development of Asian regional integration and the impact manifested by third regionalism [ 1 ]. It is worth noting that the hot topics also mention the "crisis" sense brought to some countries by the proposal of the BRI.…”

China’s "the Belt and Road Initiative" (BRI) is a top-level cooperation initiative among countries proposed by China, which has promoted China’s cooperation with relevant countries in various aspects and fields. Research reports from think tanks and experts on the evaluation, analysis, and research conclusions of the BRI can reflect the stance, opinions, and demands of various countries abroad regarding the initiative. This paper takes the BRI reports of important think tanks in the " Global Go To Think Tank Index Report 2020" as the subject of its research, and analyzes the key points and development trends of foreign think tank research on the BRI by using text mining, topic evolution, and social network analysis. It provides reasonable suggestions and ideas for promoting the construction of the BRI and deepening related cooperation in China. Research shows that the thematic distribution of research reports on the BRI by think tanks is mainly focused on the fields of politics, economy, and military. The research areas are relatively stable, and there is not a strong trend of thematic evolution. The evolution paths are also mainly distributed in the fields of politics, economy, and military. There are not many expansions in the thematic evolution directions over the years, and there is a strong inheritance of themes. The connection between research themes and the main purpose of the BRI is somewhat inadequate, indicating a certain limitation in the understanding of the BRI.

“…Due to the limitation of the year in which samples can be obtained, this paper fails to verify the relationship between BRI and EV in the context of COVID-19, the Russia-Ukrain war and Sino-US competition in recent years. However, based on the previous review of contemporary BRI literature and relevant information on BRI (Chaisse and Kirkwood 2020;Shan and Feng 2021;Burnay and Raube 2022;Marcoux and Sylvestre-Fleury 2022;Chaisse and Hsieh 2023), we have found the following trends: (1) BRI shows a 'North-South difference' globally. On the one hand, countries such as Europe, the United States, and Japan believe that BRI is important for China to challenge its dominant free trade system and maintain a distance and sceptical attitude towards it.…”

This study examines the association between the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and export variety (EV). We propose three hypotheses on how BRI may foster export markets (destinations) or export product lines. The estimates are based on a dataset constructed specifically for this analysis, covering 183 countries and linked with trade data from 1996 to 2019. We apply the instrumental variable (IV) approach in regressions for covering the endogeneity. The results indicate that participation in BRI is negatively related to EV. Specifically, we find evidence that, on average, BRI participants have less EV (by product and by destination) and greater export concentration. As regards participation in the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and BRI meanwhile (AIIB_BRI and AIIB_MOU), the results show a more negative effect. And there are heterogeneous effects of BRI across different economies and sectors.

“…China actively supports institutions such as the WTO and has engaged in regional trade agreements, most notably the RCEP. These efforts have allowed China to expand its economic influence and assert itself as a major player in global trade (Chaisse and Hsieh, 2023).…”

Thirty Years' Crisis: The Decline of U.S. Hegemony and the Rise of China

This article examines the current global landscape, characterized by the decline of US hegemony and the rise of China, and draws parallels to Carr's "Twenty Years' Crisis." The implications of these shifts are explored, including the resurgence of realism, China's ascent as a global power, challenges to US leadership, and the potential risks of a global military conflict. The resurgence of power politics challenges the prevailing belief that it had diminished in the post-Cold War era. Territorial disputes and the pursuit of national interests by major powers such as Russia and China highlight the enduring relevance of realism. China's rapid rise as a global power echoes the emergence of the United States as a superpower in the past. Meanwhile, the United States faces challenges as its economic and technological superiority wanes, with China posing a significant threat to its leadership. In conclusion, the current global landscape, similar to Carr's "Twenty Years' Crisis," demands a holistic approach to understanding and addressing the complexities of our time.
