This book analyses the opportunities enabled for Armenia by China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) in the framework of economic cooperation, policy diversification, social inclusion and regional cohesion.

Structured in five parts, the chapters outline the economic, geopolitical and legal agenda for Armenia, in order to formulate policy diversification and risk mitigation principles for participation in BRI projects. Experiences from Russia, Central Asia and the Caucasus are included in the discussion. Offering international and Armenian perspectives on the advantages and disadvantages of participation in the Belt and Road Initiative, the book also suggests an alternative for Armenia: A deepening of its cooperation with democracies in the EU, and India.

A critically timed study, this book is an important addition to the literature of the South Caucasus region, the Indo-Pacific, and China studies. It will be of interest to policy-makers and researchers in the field of international relations, security studies and area studies.
