Abstract
China-Pakistan Economic Corridor—A Game Changer is a
collection of essays, written by experts in the fields of International
Relations, Political Economy, Current Affairs, and Sino-Pak relations.
The book takes its readers on an exuberant journey through the history
of Silk Route to the One Belt, One-Road (OBOR) initiative and the
political economy of the Sino-Pakistan relations. The book not only
underscores the challenges that lie ahead in making the China-Pakistan
Economic Corridor (CPEC) a success, but it also presents suggestions for
making it a real game changer for development and prosperity of
Pakistan, and the entire region. The book highlights the economic and
political importance of CPEC by integrating analysis with the latest
data. In the first article, Li Xiguang discusses the importance of the
OBOR initiative. He asserts that “opening to both the east and the
west”, China will become the centre of Central Asia. The idea of OBOR
raised by China would not only achieve economic purposes but cultural,
religious, and educational exchanges can also be made possible through
this project. Historically, Silk Road had its own influence and it
helped in shaping the governance and transportation of even the most
distant countries and influenced the culture of even the remotest areas.
In the past, the area around the CPEC has seen the ascent of the
cultural centres of the world. The CPEC, which encompasses countries
including Pakistan, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan,
Turkmenistan, and Iran has once again put China on the central stage.
The author feels that China needs to maintain social relationships and
political cooperation with these nations. This initiative is shaping a
new world order through common destiny, common interests, values,
culture, and security.
