At the Dawn of Belt and Road: China in the Developing World

Abstract

This report documents research and analysis conducted as part of a project entitled China in the Developing World, sponsored by the United States Army Pacific. The purpose of the project is to examine Chinas economic, political, and military activities in the Developing World and provide insights to help inform U.S. Army decisions regarding presence and force posture in the region. Specifically, the study explores Chinas economic, political, and security roles in Southeast Asia, Oceania, Central Asia, South Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America and the Caribbean. The report also examines Chinas bilateral relationships with the key states in each region. Finally, the report contemplates the consequences of the Chinese strategy toward the Developing World for the United States. It should be of interest to U.S. Army strategists and planners, other U.S. military personnel focusing on China, and anyone interested in Chinas international relations.
