Belt and Road has dramatically amplified the diplomatic value of the Silk Road. A number of the projects here are explored in the book. The text critically examines the implications of this form of cooperation. It discusses, for example, how Silk Road heritage diplomacy contributes to a rethinking of regional and world histories, seeks to influence politically sensitive maritime affairs, impacts livelihoods and landscapes across hundreds of locations, and is now influencing the politics of identity in multiple countries. The pages here complement this analysis through imagery and videos.
