From 2013 China promotes the project of a new Silk Road with the aim of transforming a global network of transport in a network of cooperation between China and the countries that will be crossed. According to the Chinese project the new Silk Road will have two directions, "Silk Road Economic Belt" by land, and the "Maritime Silk Road", with the aim of creating a northern corridor of roads and a southern maritime one, for the most direct link between China and Europe. Both routes should help to maintain high growth rates of the Chinese economy and, at the same time, improve the economies of countries crossed in Asia, Africa, Middle East and Europe. For some time, China is investing in strategic infrastructure such as ports and railways located in Asia and Europe to realize this important project.

Abstract
From 2013 China promotes the project of a new Silk Road with the aim of transforming a global network of transport in a network of cooperation between China and the countries that will be crossed. According to the Chinese project the new Silk Road will have two directions, "Silk Road Economic Belt" by land, and the "Maritime Silk Road", with the aim of creating a northern corridor of roads and a southern maritime one, for the most direct link between China and Europe. Both routes should help to maintain high growth rates of the Chinese economy and, at the same time, improve the economies of countries crossed in Asia, Africa, Middle East and Europe. For some time, China is investing in strategic infrastructure such as ports and railways located in Asia and Europe to realize this important project.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
