The Digital Silk Road: China’s Quest to Wire the World and Win the Future

byJonathan Hillman

An expert on China’s global infrastructure expansion provides an urgent look at the battle to connect and control tomorrow’s networks. Using economic evidence, institutional analysis, and historical examples, The Digital Silk Road moves between close observation and a wider account of the systems surrounding its subject. By placing The Digital Silk Road within business & economics and computers, the book reveals why its central tensions extend well beyond one person, place, or moment. The Digital Silk Road emphasizes the specific circumstances that made this story possible and the consequences that followed.
