Topic: China's Belt Road Initiative (OBOR): It's Strategic, Economic and Security Implications for India

Talk Abstract:
China's $1 trillion Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), earlier known as OBOR (one Belt one Road), aims to improve its connectivity with as many as 65 countries, including Europe. The initiative has been equated with Marshal Plan or 21st Century Silk Road etc. However, concerns have been raised in India and globally whether BRI is a form of economic imperialism that gives China too much leverage over other countries.
In this talk, Professor Kaul will answer the following questions:
• Is BRI a new growth strategy using globalization as an opportunity and old Silk Route as a brand to build China-centric 21th century Empire?
• Are Chinese attempt at building a new International Financial Architecture a step toward creation of Chinese hegemony?
• Are the strategic and security concerns of India and other Asian countries in Chinese neighborhoods genuine and serious?
• Are the proposed Asia-Africa Growth Corridor and other maritime initiatives undertaken by India an effective balancing strategy?
