In recent years China has become a more central and dominant actor in the international arena at
large and in the Middle East and Mediterranean region (“Mid-Med”) in particular. China’s current
flagship project, the Belt and Road Initiative, in many ways posits the Mid-Med as a focal area and
hub. Whether as a medium through which the Belt and Road has to penetrate; a substantial
economic and diplomatic partner; a major source for China’s energy; or a geopolitical ground for
advancing international agendas, the significance of the Mid-Med for China, and the significance
of China in and for the Mid-Med, has been dramatically growing.
An initiative jointly organized by the ChinaMed Project of the TOChina Hub, the Department of East Asian Studies of Tel Aviv University, and the Moshe Dayan Center for Middle Eastern and African Studies, "China in the Mid-Med" creates a unique venue, in which academic scholars,
industry/government actors, and research students from around the world and from leading
groups can interact together and thereby generate better knowledge - along with means to
disseminate it and to make it influential-within our societies, the academy, and other institutions.
In the second talk, registered on July 7th, 2021 Enrico Fardella (Peking University & ChinaMed Project - TOChina Hub), Ori Sela (Department of East Asian Studies, Tel Aviv University), Brandon Friedman (Tel Aviv University - Moshe Dayan Center), and Andrea Ghiselli (Fudan University & ChinaMed Project - TOChina Hub) discuss China and Iran with Liora Hendelman-Baavur, Director of the Alliance Center for Iranian Studies, Tel Aviv University.
