BELT AND ROAD: BENEFITS AND PROSPECTS FOR KAZAKHSTAN
Keywords:
China-Kazakhstan relations, sinology, Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), Silk Road Economic Belt (SREB).Abstract
The novelty of this article is determined, first, by the very topic of research, because the object of study is cooperation between Kazakhstan and China under the Chinese Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), while the initiative itself is a new research topic for the scientific community as its implementation began only five or six years ago. Second, we consider the Chinese Belt and Road Initiative from the perspective of the interests of Kazakhstan, with a comprehensive analysis of the implementation, problems, and prospects of integration of China’s Silk Road Economic Belt and Kazakhstan’s Nurly Zhol (Bright Path) projects. And third, an assessment is made of the successes achieved in the implementation of this integration project in the Central Asian region, as well as its political risks and potential threats to Kazakhstan’s reindustrialization plans.
