China, BRI, regime alimentar, segurança alimentarResumo
Em meio a atual desordem internacional, a nova Iniciativa do Cinturão e Rota (BRI) da China tem chamado a atenção como uma estratégia global que reflete seu crescente poder político-econômico. Este ensaio adopta uma abordagem basada no "regime alimentar" para analisar esses desenvolvimentos. Exploram-se duas dimensões relacionadas: a primeira concentra-se em como a China está abordando as futuras necessidades de segurança alimentar, tanto interna quanto internacionalmente; e a segunda situa a recente política de "sair para fora" da China no contexto da transição do regime alimentar global.
