The Trans-Siberian and the Silk Road

Global Infrastructure and Regional Development

Pages 50-64 | Published online: 05 Jun 2018
 

Abstract

This article analyzes the problem of the competitiveness of the Trans-Siberian as compared to overland versions of the Silk Road. It proves the utility of creating international transport corridors in order to not only organize transit shipments but also integrate both economically and politically the Eurasian space; that is, first and foremost, to activate cross-border economic cooperation between the adjacent regions of Russia, China, and Kazakhstan. Such cooperation is a promising path that lessens the unprofitable consequences of the intracontinental position of these regions.
