Belt and Road Initiative - Professor Richard Griffiths, prof. Marcin Jacoby

China's role in contemporary international relations is constantly growing. The concept of the development of a society based on the idea of "living in unity", as well as economic, political or cultural cooperation is an introduction to the dialogue about the future of the world in the era of globalization. The concept of the new Silk Road proposed by China is a comprehensive strategy, the implementation of which may contribute to the development of third country markets. What political and economic challenges is China facing? How is the One Lane One Road concept evolving? What problems of the modern world will this initiative respond to? These questions will be answered by prof. Richard Griffiths in an interview with Dr. hab. Marcin Jacoby. The Culture Zone of SWPS University is a project in which, together with the invited guests, we discuss various elements of the culture that surrounds us, as well as introduce the realities, phenomena and customs present in other countries.
