This book delves into the realm of Silk Road studies by taking a unique perspective within the vibrant arts sector of China's Southwest region. By examining the intricate connections between China's cultural heritage and its global influence in the creative industry, it seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of the macrocosm. While exploring China's cultural hegemony and its ideologies within the context of the New Silk Road regions, the book also incorporates fresh regional research from both within China and across the New Silk Road territories. With a wealth of twenty years of experience in China, Sophia G. Kidd fills a significant gap in discussions of the New Silk Roads, emphasizing the vital role of the people-to-people component. Cultural diplomacy plays a pivotal role in fostering cooperation among New Silk Road Regions by mitigating the "cultural discount" of Chinese cultural exports, including ideas and values. This shift in geo-cultural thinking contributes to a more inclusive and interconnected global landscape. This book is a valuable resource for students interested in the arts and the dynamics of soft power in greater China, offering insightful perspectives and illuminating insights into the complex interplay between culture, history, and international relations.
