      <image:title>About - Research context</image:title>
      <image:caption>In 2013, China launched the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), a set of policies and mostly infrastructural investments in countries along a loosely reimagined Silk Road. An increasingly discussed part of the BRI is the Digital Silk Road (DSR) which, at least on paper, is focused on investments in the digital field in BRI countries, from building physical infrastructures to localizing digital services and devices. This project studies the implementation of the DSR from the bottom up in China and three neighboring countries: Cambodia, Myanmar and Kazakhstan. It starts from a simple question whose answer is very unclear: What is the Digital Silk Road, exactly? What projects does it consist of and how are they coordinated? Who is investing in it, and how much? How are these projects connected with the goals of the Chinese State, and directly supported by it, and how do they deviate, following instead the goals of the corporations or people who materialize them? What specific consequences do they have on the daily lives of people who live in the three countries we focus on, as well as on the countries' economies and societies?</image:caption>

      <image:title>About - Research methods</image:title>
      <image:caption>Our team employs field research based on qualitative methods, digital methods, and document analysis to understand the emergence of the Digital Silk Road from the ground-up and from the comparative perspective of businesses, governments and ordinary people in the four countries. In China, where policies, finances, devices, online platforms and apps originate, we look at the strategies of tech companies, especially SME, to succeed in the markets of the three countries, and explore how they are linked to a general DSR strategy and how they diverge from it. In Kazakhstan, Myanmar and Cambodia, we focus on traders and small markets as well as people's use of Chinese tech. At the heart of our exploration are ethnographic methods, which we triangulate with document analysis and digital methods to bring a multi-layered perspective on the ground-up implementation of the DSR.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Projects - China</image:title>
      <image:caption>China is where the Digital Silk Road (DSR) originated, as part of the BRI, but while the DSR is a recent phenomenon, Chinese tech enterprises have been expanding in foreign markets since the early 2000s, and have become key players in multiple fields, from infrastructure to hardware, to e-commerce, social media, gaming, etc. Fieldwork in China will focus on the “supply side” of the DSR, to understand policies, attitudes, strategies, and devices at the macro-level, and the consequences they have in the other three countries at the micro-level. We employ an ethnographic approach to understand origins and antecedents of the DSR, and Chinese tech companies and entrepreneurs' strategies to "glocalize" their products and companies.</image:caption>

Since then, China has invested heavily in a variety of infrastructural projects, as well as in digital infrastructure, e-commerce, data centers, smart city programs, fintech, digitization of traditional industries, etc. Our work in Kazakhstan focuses on the top-down state digitization programs undertaken by the Kazakh government in collaboration with Chinese partners, and on the bottom-up localization strategies of Chinese firms and their relations with local digital entrepreneurs.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Projects - Myanmar</image:title>
      <image:caption>Myanmar is a “connector-country” of the BRI, that is, a country that links the land and the sea parts of the BRI, and an important part of the DSR. China is investing in digital infrastructures, e-commerce, mobile payments and Chinese social media, mobile gaming, and entertainment apps are increasingly popular among young people. In Myanmar, we carry out an ethnographic exploration of how young people perceive, adopt, adapt or reject Chinese apps and technology, to understand the impact and cultural shaping that Chinese digital platforms have on daily life outside of China.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Projects - Cambodia</image:title>
      <image:caption>Cambodia has been an enthusiastic partner of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), a strong supporter of China’s bid to become a global player, particularly in the context of ASEAN, and a recipient of significant Chinese aid, soft diplomacy and financial investments. The Chinese presence is particularly visible in urban areas such as Phnom Penh and Sihanoukville, whose deep-water port is an essential part of the maritime BRI. China has also made important investments in digital infrastructure and e-commerce, and Chinese phones and other digital tech are widespread in both urban and rural areas. Our work in Cambodia focuses on Chinese tech in people's daily lives, and on Chinese tech companies that are investing in the country, from household names such as Huawei and Alibaba, to small Chinese-owned spin-offs and joint ventures.</image:caption>

      <image:title>关于我们 - 研究背景</image:title>
      <image:caption>数字丝绸之路是否会将中国互联网出口到“一带一路”国家，进而取代以美国为中心的数字世界？数字丝路相关的基础设施、服务和政策又蕴含着什么样的价值观？它们是否预示着未来的全球互联网将会一分为二：一个由美国主导，建立在市场驱动的价值之上；另一个则以中国为首，受国家主导，重塑网络国家边界与统治等价值观的影响？ 2013年，中国提出“一带一路”倡议，在古老的丝绸之路沿线国家，围绕基础设施投资建立起一系列相关政策。 近年来，越来越多对“一带一路”倡议的讨论集中在数字丝绸之路上。数字丝绸之路主要是中国对“一带一路”国家数字领域的投资，包括基础设施建设，本地化数字服务和设备等等。DIGISILK项目采用自下而上的研究方法，探究数字丝绸之路在中国、柬埔寨、缅甸和哈萨克斯坦的实施情况。研究始于一个简单却难以清晰回答的问题：究竟什么是数字丝绸之路？它由哪些项目组成，项目之间如何协同合作？投资主体是谁？投资金额是多少？这些项目如何与中国当下的战略目标联系起来并赢得政府支持，又是如何在实施过程中转向实现公司或个人的目标？数字丝路项目对以上三个国家的经济、社会与当地民生产生了哪些具体影响？</image:caption>

      <image:title>关于我们 - 研究方法</image:title>
      <image:caption>我们的团队将分别在四个国家进行实地研究，采用定性方法、数字技术和文本分析，从企业、政府和普通民众等不同角度来探究数字丝绸之路的发展与影响。中国作为数字丝路政策、投资、设备、平台和应用程序的发源地，我们将着眼于科技公司，尤其是中小企业在三个邻国市场的成功经验，探讨它们与数字丝绸之路战略的相关性。在哈萨克斯坦、缅甸和柬埔寨，我们则专注于商人和小型市场以及人们对中国技术的日常使用。DIGISILK项目方法论的核心是人类学研究，再加上文本分析和数字技术的三角测量，为数字丝绸之路的实施情况带来多层次的解读。</image:caption>

      <image:title>О нас - Исследовательский проект DIGISILK</image:title>
      <image:caption>В 2013 году Китай выступил с инициативой "Пояс и путь" (ИПП), представляющей собой набор политических мер и преимущественно инфраструктурных инвестиций в страны, расположенные вдоль свободно очерченного Шелкового пути. Все более обсуждаемой частью ИПП является Цифровой шелковый путь (ЦШП), который, по официальным заявлениям, ориентирован на инвестиции в цифровую сферу в страны ИПП, в проекты варьирующиеся от создания физической инфраструктуры до локализации цифровых услуг и устройств. Данный проект изучает реализацию ЦШП по принципу «снизу вверх» в Китае и трех соседних с ним странах: Камбодже, Мьянме и Казахстане. Он начинается с простого вопроса, ответ на который до сих пор неясен: что такое на самом деле Цифровой шелковый путь? Из каких проектов он состоит и как они координируются? Кто и сколько инвестирует в него? Как эти проекты связаны с целями китайского государства и каким образом поддерживаются им, и как они отклоняются, следуя вместо этого целям корпораций или людей, которые их реализуют? Какие конкретные последствия они имеют для повседневной жизни людей, живущих в трех странах, которые мы изучаем, а также для экономики и общества этих стран?</image:caption>

      <image:title>О нас - Методы исследования</image:title>
      <image:caption>Для подробного изучения возникновения Цифрового шелкового пути (ЦШП) по принципу «снизу вверх» и сравнительного анализа взглядов бизнеса, правительств и простых людей в четырех странах наша команда использует полевые исследования, основанные на качественных методах, а также цифровые методы и анализ документов. В Китае, откуда происходит политика ЦШП, методы его финансирования, технологические устройства, онлайн-платформы и приложения, мы рассматриваем стратегии технологических компаний, особенно малого и среднего бизнеса, которые предпринимаются для достижения успеха на рынках трех стран, а также изучаем как они связаны со общей стратегией ЦШП и как расходятся с ней. В Казахстане, Мьянме и Камбодже мы сосредоточимся на торговцах и небольших рынках, а также на использовании людьми китайских технологий. В основе нашего исследования лежат методы этнографии, которые мы триангулируем с анализом документов и цифровыми методами для того, чтобы создать многоуровневую перспективу реализации ЦШП на местах.</image:caption>

      <image:title>项目 - 哈萨克斯坦</image:title>
      <image:caption>哈萨克斯坦是中国推进“一带一路”倡议的重要合作伙伴。2013年9月，习近平主席访问哈萨克斯坦纳扎尔巴耶夫大学时首次提出“一带一路”倡议。此后，中国在哈萨克斯坦进行了大量的基础设施投资，包括数字基础设施、电子商务、数据中心、智慧城市、金融科技、传统产业数字化等等。我们在哈萨克斯坦的研究着眼于当地政府与中国合作开展的数字化项目、中国企业的本地化战略和中哈数字企业的合作情况。</image:caption>

      <image:title>项目 - 柬埔寨</image:title>
      <image:caption>柬埔寨作为“一带一路”倡议的积极合作伙伴，长期以来支持中国参与全球化。两国在东盟区域合作框架下联系密切，柬埔寨还是中国外交援助和金融投资的受惠国。中方在金边和西哈努克等地的业务拓展尤为明显，其中深水港是海上丝绸之路倡议的重要组成部分。此外，中国在柬埔寨的数字基础设施和电子商务方面也进行了重要投资，国产手机和其他数字产品已普及至该国的城市和农村地区。我们在柬埔寨的研究将重点关注: 1. 当地居民对中国科技产品的日常使用情况 2. 在该国进行投资的中国科技公司, 包括华为和阿里巴巴等科技巨头，国有小型衍生企业以及合资企业。</image:caption>

      <image:caption>缅甸是连接“一带一路”陆海国家的重要节点。目前，中国在缅甸的投资涵盖数字基础设施、电子商务、移动支付。同时，中国社交媒体、移动游戏和娱乐应用也越来越受年轻人的欢迎。我们将对缅甸年轻人如何阐释、使用或抵抗中国平台和技术进行民族志研究，进而了解中国数字平台对当地人日常生活的影响和文化塑造。</image:caption>

      <image:title>Проекты - Китай</image:title>
      <image:caption>Китай - это место зарождения Цифрового Шелкового пути (ЦШП) как части ИПП, и хотя ЦШП - это недавнее явление, китайские технологические компании выходят на зарубежные рынки с начала 2000-х годов и уже стали ключевыми игроками во многих областях, от инфраструктуры и технологического оборудования, до электронной коммерции, социальных сетей, компьютерных игр и т.д. Полевые работы в Китае будут фокусироваться на "сфере предложения" ЦШП для того, чтобы понять политику, отношение, стратегии и устройства на макроуровне, а также последствия, которые они имеют в трех других странах на микроуровне. Мы используем этнографический подход, чтобы понять истоки и предшественников ЦШП, а также стратегии китайских технологических компаний и предпринимателей по "глокализации" своих продуктов и компаний.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Проекты - Казахстан</image:title>
      <image:caption>Казахстан является одним из ключевых партнеров Китая в его реализации ИПП, которая была впервые объявлена президентом Си во время его визита в университет им. Назарбаева в Нур-Султане (бывшая Астана, столица Казахстана) в сентябре 2013 года. С тех пор Китай инвестирует значительные средства в различные инфраструктурные проекты, а также в цифровую инфраструктуру, электронную коммерцию, центры обработки данных, программы "умных городов", финтех, цифровизацию традиционных отраслей и т.д. Наша работа в Казахстане будет фокусироваться на государственных программах цифровизации "сверху вниз", осуществляемых правительством Казахстана в сотрудничестве с китайскими партнерами, и на стратегиях локализации "снизу вверх" китайских фирм и их отношениях с местными цифровыми предпринимателями.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Проекты - Камбоджа</image:title>
      <image:caption>Камбоджа является активным партнером инициативы "Пояс и путь" (ИПП), решительным сторонником Китая в его стремлении стать глобальным игроком, особенно в контексте стран АСЕАН, и получателем значительной китайской помощи, мягкой дипломатии и финансовых инвестиций. Китайское присутствие особенно заметно в таких городах как Пномпень и Сиануквиль, чей глубоководный порт является важной частью морского направления ИПП. Китай также сделал значительные инвестиции в цифровую инфраструктуру и электронную коммерцию, а китайские телефоны и другие цифровые технологии широко распространены как в городских, так и в сельских районах. Наша работа в Камбодже сосредоточена на китайских технологиях в повседневной жизни людей, а также на китайских технологических компаниях, инвестирующих в страну, от таких известных, как Huawei и Alibaba, до небольших китайских дочерних и совместных предприятий.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Проекты - Мьянма</image:title>
      <image:caption>Мьянма является "страной-соединителем" ИПП, то есть страной, которая связывает сухопутную и морскую части ИПП, и важной частью ЦШП. Китай инвестирует в цифровую инфраструктуру, электронную коммерцию, мобильные платежи, а китайские социальные сети, мобильные игры и развлекательные приложения становятся все более популярными среди молодежи. В Мьянме мы проводим этнографическое исследование о том, как молодые люди воспринимают, используют, адаптируют или отказываются от китайских приложений и технологий для того, чтобы понять влияние и культурное формирование, которое китайские цифровые платформы оказывают на повседневную жизнь за пределами Китая.</image:caption>
