This book offers a critical and original analysis of how China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is actively reshaping the geopolitical architecture of the Middle East. Far from being a neutral economic enterprise, the BRI is conceptualized here as a deliberate and strategic modality of power--what the book terms diplomacy by design--through which China is redrawing regional alignments, recalibrating state relations, and subtly displacing long-standing Western influence.
