La complejidad que implica el tablero de las relaciones internacionales ha experimentado importantes cambios en este último siglo. La iniciativa impulsada por China desde el 2013 conocida como “Iniciativa de la Franja y la Ruta” (IFR), o como el “proyecto del siglo” tiene el potencial de cambiar la geografía económica y estratégica del mundo, re orientándola hacia el pacífico, con centro en Oriente. En el caso de América Latina se refleja en una fuerte cantidad de inversiones en infraestructura, orientando el comercio hacia una reprimarización de las economías regionales. Después de siete años del lanzamiento oficial de este proyecto se abre el interrogante sobre si las nuevas estructuras y entidades financieras creadas por China se orientarán a profundizar el denominado consenso de Beijing, y sobre cuáles son los riesgos y desafíos de la nueva Ruta de la Seda para América Latina. El presente trabajo tiene como finalidad analizar geopolíticamente, desde una perspectiva latinoamericana, cuales son las implicancias de la Nueva Ruta de la Seda para la región, planteando el desafío que implica insertarse dentro del plan chino, las oportunidades que genera en términos de desarrollo y cuales son los márgenes de autonomía. Para esto a los fines metodológicos, el trabajo está centrado en tres aspectos: a) los lineamientos generales y estratégicos de la Nueva Ruta de la Seda; b) el significado y alcance para la región; y c) y el desafío entre las oportunidades y la autonomía que se plantea la región ante el BRI.

description |
The complexity of the international relations board has undergone significant changes in the last century. The initiative promoted by China since 2013 known as the “Belt and Road Initiative” (IFR), or as the “Century Project”, has the potential to change the world’s economic and strategic geography, re-orienting it toward the Pacific, centered in the East.
In the case of Latin America, it is reflected in a strong amount of investment in infrastructure, directing trade toward a reprimanization of regional economies. Seven years after the official launch of this project opens the question of whether the new financial structures and institutions created by China will be geared toward deepening the so-called Beijing Consensus. And what are the risks and challenges of the new Silk Road for Latin America.
The aim of this paper is to analyze geopolitically, from a Latin American perspective, what are the implications of the New Silk Road for the region, posing the challenge of being inserted into the Chinese plan, the opportunities it generates in terms of development and what are the margins of autonomy. For this, for methodological purposes, the work is focused on three aspects: (A) the general and strategic guidelines of the New Silk Road; b) the meaning and scope for the region; and c) and the challenge between opportunities and autonomy that the region poses to the BRI. |
