This book analyzes the Chinese-centered globalization 'from below'
brought about by China's entrepreneurial migrants and conceived of
as a projection of Chinese power in the Belt and Road Initiative
partner states. It identifies the features of this globalization
'from below,' scrutinizes its mutually reinforcing relationship
with China's globalization 'from above,' and shows that these two
globalizations are intrinsically related to the construction of a
new international order. It outlines how the actors in China's
globalization 'from below' include Chinese emigrants who are
located in informal transnational economic networks. It reveals
that Beijing has enacted many laws that compel these emigrants to
contribute to the development of their country of origin but also
influences them through the successful promotion of a specific type
of deterritorialized nationalism; and that China is ready to impose
harsh punitive actions on political elites in partner states which
fail to protect its migrants or limit their economic activities.
Finally, it argues that China's globalization 'from below' is
fundamentally different from the non-hegemonic globalization 'from
below' represented by, among others, Lebanese and East Indian
traders, and that China's globalization 'from below' is rather a
self-interested national strategy intended to support the
construction of a Chinese-centered international order.
