摘要

Chapter 7 is about the enigma of the Silk Road spirit inheritance and contemporary development. Since the German sinologist Richthofen coined the term “Silk Road,” it has been recognized and used by domestic and international scholars. The Silk Road has been there since 2000 years ago and is related to the Chinese civilization as the prosperity and continuity of the Chinese civilization sustain the Silk Road’s enduring civilization. The Silk Road was also related to the output of handicrafts in China’s farming era; in particular, the development and prosperity of Jiangnan culture and economy served as the intellectual and material foundation for the Silk Road development. How to look upon the overseas community’s observation of China’s proposal and pursuit of the Belt and Road Initiative? What does today’s Belt and Road Initiative mean for the world? What positive significance does China’s experience have for the development of the world? This chapter discusses the above issues.
