The BRI is still at the very initial phase of realisation and its success essentially depends on the formation of efficient institutional and regulatory environment along OBOR's trade routes.

It draws upon special issue of the Transnational Dispute Management (TDM) on the BRI covering mostly its legal aspects and also insights into its economic and political dimensions
