The revised 2025-2026 edition of Hussein Askary and Jason Ross’s “Extending the New Silk Road to West Asia and Africa” is now available. Building on the impact of the 2017 report, this new edition brings the analysis up to date with major global shifts, including the expansion of BRICS, major infrastructure breakthroughs across Africa, and new developments in West Asia.
There is a glowing new preface from Professor Li Xing, a new introduction including major developments since the first edition was published, and new analysis on the “debt trap” narrative, and on regional development policies in the region, including Lyndon LaRouche’s Oasis Plan.

This new edition is a strategic update and expansion, reflecting a rapidly changing world and the growing relevance of the New Silk Road framework in the context of the LaRouche movement’s organizing for the World Land-Bridge.
The book is available on Amazon in both paperback and kindle formats, and is also available as a paperback in Chinese.
