Chinese President Xi Jinping's signature foreign policy endeavor, BRI has the potential to meet developing countries' needs and spur economic growth, but its implementation creates risks that outweigh its benefits. Unless the United States offers an effective alternative, China could reorient global trade networks, set technical standards that would disadvantage non-Chinese companies, lock countries into carbon-intensive power generation, increase its political influence over countries, and acquire power projection capabilities for its military. The COVID-19 pandemic has made a U.S. response more urgent as the global economic contraction has accelerated the reckoning with BRI-related debt. China's Belt and Road: Implications for the United States proposes that the United States respond to BRI by putting forward an affirmative agenda of its own, drawing on its strengths and coordinating with allies and partners to promote sustainable, secure, and green development.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jennifer Hillman, David Sacks\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0876098006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780876098004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Council on Foreign Relations Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/23\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 190\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.40d","brand":"Jennifer Hillman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43990505095423,"sku":"9780876098004","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6fea3c5b-29e2-45dd-bfe1-934e06166e22.jpg?v=1683305060","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/chinas-belt-and-road-jennifer-hillman-9780876098004","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
