Introduction: China’s interactions in Eurasia

Introduction: China’s interactions in Eurasia The rise of China is so far the biggest global phenomenon of the 21st century. It is also evident around China, on the Eurasian continent.

Abstract

The rise of China is so far the biggest global phenomenon of the 21st century. It is also evident around China, on the Eurasian continent. The Symposium in this issue of Human Affairs focuses on this current significant phenomenon of China’s interactions in Eurasia.China’s global interactions have become increasingly relevant since the beginning of the century when the results of new China’s model introduced gradually since 1978 began to show markedly. In 2001, China joined the WTO, and agreed with Russia and four Central Asian countries to set up the Shanghai Cooperation Organization. China handled the 2008 global economic and financial crisis well, which was mainly a crisis in the USA and other Western countries. Then, China’s global impact has been enhanced since 2013, when Chinese President Xi Jinping announced the Belt and Road Initiative in Kazakhstan, a project to revitalize and update the long-term historical cooperation via the Silk Road. Eurasian integration has also gained momentum since 2014, when Western powers began imposing sanctions on Russia over an accession of the Crimea, preventing Russia from cooperating more closely with the European Union and inadvertently prompting it to develop a partnership with China, its largest potential partner in Asia.
