| Summary/Abstract |
The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has attracted wide scholarly attention. However, discussions among social scientists on BRI have largely premised on the academic infrastructure in English language contexts. Academic research on BRI in China has often been only briefly mentioned as background information in English language publications. This disjuncture between scholarship on BRI inside and outside China reflects the multiple geographies of BRI. Thinking through BRI in English and Chinese scholarship, this paper considers how existing and future factors such as funding sources, language politics, political framing of the research and institutional surveillance may yield different intellectual spaces for understanding the knowledge production of BRI.

| Summary/Abstract |
The articles in this special issue examine engagements across ethnic boundaries in Asian cities over the past two centuries. We see these cities as stages for the co-production of ethnicity, where multiple actors, including but not limited to state authorities, have attempted to define, manage, and challenge the social boundaries between their diverse inhabitants. These articles direct our attention to the convergence of three critical themes: the flexibility and ubiquity of ethnic ascription, the top-down and bottom-up co-production of social meaning, and Asian cities as crucial sites of social innovation.

| Summary/Abstract |
This article focuses on global migration flows with Chinese characteristics in terms of African traders sojourning in China. In their case study of low-end globalization, the authors concentrate on the lives and livelihoods of Africans engaging in trade between China and various African countries. Like their Chinese counterparts in Africa, African traders in Hong Kong and Guangzhou, are exclusively interested and engaged in expanding the global flow of goods with Chinese characteristics. Facilitating this particular flow, the authors argue, might one day be regarded as one of China's most significant contributions to the history of globalization.
