Abstract
China’s rise as a superpower has been debated for years. Now with BRICS and the Belt and Road, China is closer than ever to achieving this goal. But which of these strategies is most effective, and how do they compare? This paper uses structural realism and hegemony theory to answer the question: How do BRICS and the Belt and Road Initiative compare in helping China achieve its goals as an emerging hegemon? Keywords: China, BRICS, Belt and Road, hegemony, realis, international development, multipolarity
