商品描述
This book offers a critical and original analysis of how China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is actively reshaping the geopolitical architecture of the Middle East. Far from being a neutral economic enterprise, the BRI is conceptualized here as a deliberate and strategic modality of power--what the book terms "diplomacy by design"--through which China is redrawing regional alignments, recalibrating state relations, and subtly displacing long-standing Western influence.
Drawing on case studies from key Middle Eastern states--including the Gulf monarchies, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and some part of the Levant--the book situates China's infrastructural diplomacy within the broader context of regional fragmentation, post-American recalibration, and the emergence of multipolar diplomacy. It engages critically with concepts such as sovereignty, strategic autonomy, and the infrastructure-security nexus, arguing that the BRI constitutes a new grammar of international engagement that departs from traditional Western models.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書對中國的「一帶一路」倡議（Belt and Road Initiative, BRI）如何積極重塑中東地緣政治架構進行了批判性和原創性的分析。BRI並非一個中立的經濟企業，而是在此被概念化為一種有意識且具戰略性的權力模式——本書稱之為「設計外交」（diplomacy by design）——透過這種方式，中國正在重新劃定區域聯盟、重新校準國家關係，並微妙地取代長期以來的西方影響力。
本書以中東主要國家的案例研究為基礎，包括海灣君主國、伊朗、沙烏地阿拉伯及部分黎凡特地區，將中國的基礎設施外交置於區域碎片化、後美國重新校準及多極外交興起的更廣泛背景中進行探討。它批判性地探討了主權、戰略自主性和基礎設施與安全之間的聯繫等概念，並主張BRI構成了一種新的國際參與語法，與傳統的西方模式有所不同。
