“…As the Chinese President Xi Jinping asserted at the World Economic Forum in Davos in January 2017, "Mankind has become a community of common destiny that one is inseparable from the other, and their interest is highly inter-mingled and inter-dependent" (Zhang, 2018). There is a growing realization amongst the more developed economies in the region that to achieve stability and prosperity there needs to be global peace and security.…”

“…China's, Yídài Yílù (One Belt, One Road) or as it is now known, the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is a series of projects linking new land and maritime trade routes with a vision of sharing the fruits of peace and development under its concept of a Community of Common Destiny (Zhang, 2018). BRI is an evolving process that is engaged in constructing a macro level imagined-community in search of common destiny and highly depends upon increase of economic interdependence and regional integration.…”

Recent history of international relations suggests that economic interdependence largely contributes to the mitigation of the major political conflicts in the world. CPEC, a flagship mega development project of Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), has not only initiated massive development projects in Pakistan, which will eventually help in socio-economic development of Pakistan but it will also ensure regional integration. Development of Pakistan through CPEC is desirably focused on a people centric growth model that primarily seeks to resolve the issues of human security. This paper seeks to establish the relationship between economic interdependence and regional integration with human security. Furthermore, this study looks into the role of Gilgit-Baltistan, a geographical lynchpin region, in making CPEC a successful developmental project. Findings of the study suggest that the viability and success of this mega project is highly dependent on the inclusiveness of projects in terms of engaging all stakeholders. The fruits of this mega project are expected to be positive. This is only possible if all the different dimensions of national security, i.e. social cohesion, economic development, and political stability are ensured by the state.

“…Interdependent democracy establishes the bases for rule of relation, rule of law, liberty for debates and votes, and professional organizations to deal with various issues. Rule of relation is based on the international community of common destiny as expressed by Chinese government (Zhang, 2018). The common destiny provides the base for international cooperation.…”

In this paper, the Auguste Comte's parallel human-civilizational developments in the early nineteenth century are broadened and updated for the twentyfirst century. Comte establishes the parallel between European civilizational development as the law of three stages (the theological stage, the metaphysical stage, and the positive scientific stage) and human development (childhood, adolescence, and adulthood). He holds that each individual human develops from the stage of a devout believer in childhood as in the theological stage, to a critical metaphysician to question the abstract notions of existence in adolescence as in the metaphysical stage, and to a natural philosopher in adulthood as in the positive scientific stage. The Comte's parallel human-civilizational developments are broadened to include collectivism-individualism, human evolution, and developmental psychology from Erikson's psychosocial development, and are updated to include the stages after the nineteenth century. The four stages of infancy, toddlerhood, childhood, and adulthood in the proposed human development are parallel to the four stages of premodernity, modernity, postmodernity, and eu-modernity (post-postmodernity) in the proposed civilizational development. Each individual human develops from believing infancy to believe in parent as believing premodernity to believe in authoritative religion, to autonomous toddlerhood to explore as rational autonomous modernity to explore, to diverse childhood to learn diversity as diverse postmodernity to learn diversity, and to eusocial adulthood to establish eusociality by interdependent division of labor, multigenerational generativity, and intergroup generosity as eusocial eu-modernity to establish eusociality by interdependent division of labor between individualism and collectivism, multigenerational generativity for long-term wellbeing

“…Çin bölgeselciliğinin ikinci aşaması ise 2012 yılında Çin Komünist Partisi'nin liderliğini devralan Xi Jinping'in ülkenin başına geçmesi ile başlamıştır. Derinlemesine işbirlikleri çerçevesinde ekonomik diplomasiyi ön plana çıkaran yeni lider, bölgeyi "ortak kadere sahip topluluk" ve "ortak çıkarlara sahip topluluk" söylemleri ile nitelendirmiştir (Zhang, 2018). Bölgesel işbirliğini bir topluluk inşası olarak değerlendirmeye başlayan ve tarihsel ve kültürel bağlar ile Asya' da derin entegrasyonu sağlamak isteyen Çin'in temel bölgeselcilik sloganı "Yi-Li", bir diğer deyişle ahlak ve çıkar kavramları etrafında şekillenmeye başlamıştır (Xiaotong ve Xiaouyue, 2014 Zaman içerisinde bölgeselleşme anlayışında değişimler meydana gelmiştir.…”

boyuta ulaşmıştır. Bununla birlikte Rusya ve Çin'in mevcut konjonktürde izlediği politikaların işbirlikçi olması nedeniyle, MİY ile AEB arasındaki ilişkinin tamamlayıcı yönü ağır basmaktadır. AbstractVisibilities of Russia and China began to increase in international arena, after the 2008 Global Financial Crisis. Within this context, while Russia tries to imply policies to prevent Western influence toward ex-Soviet region and their cooperative initiatives with regional actors; China, who is one of the biggest economy in the world thanks to production capacity and its accumulation of capital, aims to raise its political effect and enhance sphere of influence as did in economic field. These two states, that are located in Asia, cooperate in various areas and lead Eastern frontier against to Western hegemony, make regionalization efforts in their own geopolitical and geoeconomical interests in the continent. On the one side, Russia adopts classical regionalism understanding which is shaped by political motivations, has geographical boundaries, exclusive and strict institutional mechanism, and eligible for nation-states; on the other hand China indigenises new regionalism approach that is surrounded by economical goals, has distanceless and borderless characteristics, inclusive and flexible mechanism, and open to all actors in international arena. In this direction, while Russia tries to maintain its influence over and dependency relationship with ex-Soviet countries through Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) which is output of twenty years process; China aims to revive old Silk Road geography and puts itself in the center politically and economically via One Belt One Road Initiatives (OBOR), also known as Modern Silk Road Project. In this paper, China's and Russia's regionalism understandings had been evaluated within the scope whether they are cooperative or complementary by taking into consideration their needs and positions in international arena. As a result of this assessment, Chinese OBOR contains and overcomes Russian EAEU, thanks to its economical advantages, better bilateral and multilateral relations with other actors in the international society and inclusive regionalism understanding. By dint of these countries' converging policies in international issues, bilateral relationship of OBOR and EAEU turns the scale toward complemantary situation.
