China’s Grand Strategy: Weaving a New Silk Road to Global Primacy by Sarwar Kashmeri.
Sarwar Kashmeri is an international relations specialist, author and commentator. He will be joining us from Vermont USA.
In this relatively short book he gives interesting details of China's "New Silk Road" strategy of challenging the Western domination of the East. It helps to understand how China rose from one of the poorest countries on earth to one of the richest.
India is an important part of the larger geopolitical equation now, especially in the Indo-Pacific region. Is India really interested in taking on China as part of the U.S. strategy? Kashmeri's pragmatic, strategic suggestions for the future says that there is a path forward that doesn't require the west to beat back China in order to avoid our own ruin.
This is a must read account of China’s world-changing strategy, the Belt and Road Initiative.
