Abstract:
The Silk Road connected the East and West for almost 2,000 years from B.C. 300 to the 1700s. It provided a network of trade routes as well as the mechanism for the reciprocal exchange of knowledge that stimulated and diffused great innovations such as printing, textiles, and gun powder. This Special Issue (SI) aims to highlight the need to expand our understanding of new paradigms for cultivating innovation development along the ‘New Silk Road’ enabled by the BRI that connects traditional innovation leaders and those catching up in Europe and Asia. This SI attempts to develop an analytical framework to study the BRI based on six research articles focused around three different topics. The first topic is the innovation catch-up opportunities enabled by the BRI; the second is the new collaboration models of BRI, and the third is the new technology-transfer practices of BRI. These three research topics form the key dimensions for studying the BRI in this SI. However, with the shifting center of gravity of economic activity over recent centuries, the thriving Silk Road declined and largely faded away.
Keywords:
