内容简介：

While the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has achieved fruitful outcomes over the past ten years, it has been frequently criticized for having negative institutional impacts and exporting Chinese model. However, there is no empirical study has exam this kind of accusation. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the institutional effect of the BRI. It applies the Instrument Variable regression technique with panel data covering 180 countries, including 136 signed the BRI cooperation agreement and 61 along the Belt and Road, from 2005 to 2021 to exam the impact of the BRI on institution quality of Belt and Road Countries (BRCs). The results show the BRI has an overall positive significant effect on institutional quality of BRCs. Robustness check still supports this finding. Further heterogeneity analysis reveals that the positive significant sign exists for both countries signed the BRI cooperation agreement and countries along the Belt and Road though coefficient is large in the former case. Moreover, the positive institutional effect is significant on developing counties, not developed countries.
