Abstract
Situating the ‘Belt and Road’ or the One Belt One Road (OBOR) concept in a historical context, this chapter examines the civilizations along the Silk Road, as well as their encounters and interactions, which have formed the social, cultural, religious, and political landscapes of the present Silk Road Economic Belt. Since civilizational rebalancing has been defined as one of the objectives of the OBOR, it argues that the long-existing trading activities along the Silk Road not only promoted the exchange of goods, but also established larger arenas for the exchanges of people, knowledge, and beliefs.
