Abstract The resources and industries between the two largest neighbor countries (Russia and China) complement each other, the level of political mutual trust is high and the prospects for trade cooperation are broad. The selection of the best regions and the best industries to strengthen investment in Russia is of great strategic significance to the promotion of the “Belt and Road” and the construction of the China-Mongolia-Russia Economic Corridor. However, the relevant research is very limited, and the current research on the investment environment in Russia is mostly at the provincial level. The unclear investment environment and unknown investment risks have severely restricted trade cooperation with Russia. The research team conducted several years of scientific investigations, government visits and scientific research in Russia, and obtained a large amount of first-hand valuable data. This study scientifically evaluated the investment environment of 16 key Russian cities in terms of economy, society, infrastructure, policies, etc., and classified the investment environment. The results of this research will provide direct scientific and technological support for strategic decisions such as strengthening bilateral economic and trade cooperation. It is an important reality for ensuring the smooth implementation of the China-Mongolia-Russia Economic Corridor.

Abstract This article surveys the existing international legal framework governing China’s energy cooperation with the Belt and Road countries at multilateral, regional and bilateral levels. A satisfying international legal framework should manage to balance the legal certainty and political acceptability needed for energy cooperation. We argue that political acceptability was the primary goal driving the current energy legal framework, providing basic rules for energy cooperation. However, these rules did not sufficiently legalize and institutionalize the investment environment. China should endeavor to promote a comprehensive Belt and Road Energy Framework on the basis of intra-network diversification. By increasing the redundancy of the energy network infrastructure and allowing countries to import and export energy via multiple routes, China can contribute to the achievement of a more secure energy market.

After the belt and road initiative was put forward, the relevant domestic regions responded positively and carried out research work in succession, making suggestions for the implementation and planning of the belt and road initiative. However, the relevant research work mainly focuses on the political, economic, and cultural problems existing in the implementation of the belt and road initiative. The research on intellectual property protection issues has rarely been reported. By analyzing the intellectual property environment both of domestic and international in which the belt and road initiative located, this chapter focuses on the intellectual property protection strategy in the implementation of the belt and road initiative, aiming at providing reference for intellectual property research under the belt and road initiative.

AbstractIn 2013, China launched its ambitious Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), a large portfolio of infrastructure projects across 71 countries intended to link Eurasian markets by rail and sea. The state-led nature of the Initiative combined with its transformative geopolitical implications have conditioned the type of engagement that many governments and firms in host and third countries are willing to take in Chinese-funded BRI projects. Building on two theoretical streams that have originated in international political economy but have received growing attention in international business, varieties of capitalism and geopolitics, this perspective shows how a greater understanding of the institutional and geopolitical context surrounding BRI helps decipher the selection of host-country firms and third-country MNEs in Chinese-funded BRI projects. We portray firm selection in a BRI project as the outcome of a one-tier bargaining game between China and a host country. We show how institutions and geopolitics influence both the legitimacy gap of Chinese SOEs in a host country and the host country’s relative bargaining power, affecting the likelihood that host firms and third-country MNEs are selected in BRI projects. We also discuss the geopolitical jockeying strategies that these firms can adopt to influence the outcome of the bargaining game.

The purpose of this article is to examine Sino-Italian political and economic cooperation. The first part of the paper reviews the still ongoing process of China`s ambitions to present itself as a 'non-Other' to the international society by carrying out economic development and political opening and offering the Belt and Road Initiative to international partners. However, Beijing still faces (un)justified accusation that it affects the implementation of the already established norms, principles and procedures of the international law, sustainable development, geopolitical order, and geoeconomic distribution of wealth. For the purpose of this research, our focus will be on Italian understanding of the maritime perspective of the Belt and Road Initiative. The second part examines tools that the two countries use for overcoming obstacles to political and economic cooperation, whilst striving not just to widen and strengthen mutual trust, sincerity, and pragmatism, but to protect national interests as well.
