The book clarifies and contributes new knowledge on the nature of BRI concerning its relationship to globalism, neo-colonialism, the notion of developed vs developing countries and their institutions and macro-micro benefits and impacts. In doing so, the book offers a balanced account of the antagonistic geo-political narrative of socio-political conflict and the collaborative framework of real socio-economic flows and development.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book will appeal to academics, researchers and policy-makers with an interest in the BRI and its impacts on politico-economic development and urban, regional and spatial systems in the Indo-Pacific and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSidh Sintusingha\u003c\/strong\u003e is Senior Lecturer in Landscape Architecture and coordinator of its postgraduate programme in the Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning at the University of Melbourne, Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHao Wu\u003c\/b\u003e is Senior Lecturer in Property in the Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning at the University of Melbourne, Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWenqi Lin\u003c\/b\u003e is Associate Professor of Urban Planning and Design in the School of Architecture and Chief Planner of Urban Planning and Design Institute at Tsinghua University, China.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSun Sheng Han\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Urban Planning in the Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning at the University of Melbourne, Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBo Qin\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Urban Planning and Management in the School of Public Administration and Policy, Renmin University of China.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 332\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.74 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 09, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47457110458621,"sku":"9780367761813","price":100.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/3414\/0157\/files\/TlZvVXpFUzlnTUdSNU1kcGFHaUg3dz09.webp?v=1777234273","url":"https:\/\/booktolia.com\/products\/international-perspectives-on-the-belt-and-road-initiative-a-bottom-up-approach-paperback","provider":"booktolia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
