China has been strengthening their structural transformations determining the large population and their cultural traditions from the ancient period of time despite the endless power influences and challenges coming from the outer world. The economy and the power of the products have increasingly been developing into a service-oriented status, different from the basis of the agricultural manufacturing process. Realizing the opportunities for exports and the process of liberalization and their neoclassical frameworks of the immense economic and social development approaches, they have been emerging with market-friendly labor, with generated outputs and policies strengthening the impact on the regional economies and other service sectors. The outbound investments, productivities, and technological initiatives have been advanced by the sense of the superiority of the capabilities of the large ground forces. Despite the powerful influence of Western and Eurocentric politics and geopolitical distinctiveness, China remains a stable and accountable stakeholder in the growing international system.  The historical Silk routes and the Belt and Road Initiatives (BRI) develop regional connectivity and conjoin the development of foreign diplomacy with overseas projects. The Silk route was activated in the second century BCE spanning over 6400 KM facilitating the economic religious, political and cultural interaction between the East and West. The new Silk route was introduced from China to Europe in 2013 as a land-based Economic belt with the beginning of worldwide interaction with the global community. Western concerns and their political, ideological, and hegemonic power have been influencing the value systems and their potential effectiveness in the masses of Asia.

Keywords: Silk route, Neoliberalism, Economic liberalization, Geopolitics power, Political ideology.
