Dutton Series Overview This China Maritime Report on Gwadar is the second in a series of case studies on China’s Indian Ocean “strategic strongpoints” (战略支点). People’s Republic of China (PRC) officials, military officers, and civilian analysts use the strategic strongpoint concept to describe certain strategically valuable foreign ports with terminals and commercial zones owned and operated by Chinese firms.1 Each case study analyzes a different port on the Indian Ocean, selected to capture geographic, commercial, and strategic variation.2 Each employs the same analytic method, drawing on Chinese official sources, scholarship, and industry reporting to present a descriptive account of the port, its transport infrastructure, the markets and resources it accesses, and its naval and military utility.

  • The Values and Significance of the Colonial Steel Railway Bridges of Pakistan
    The Values and Significance of the Colonial Steel Railway Bridges of Pakistan Ayesha Pamela Rogers* and Ghulam Mustafa Baloch Cultural Studies Department, National College of Arts, Lahore, Pakistan * Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper proposes that Civil Engineering Heritage is a distinct form of heritage, related to but differ- ing from Industrial Heritage and a separate field that should be treated independently. The critical element that sig- nifies engineering heritage isingenium or innovation in development of complex technological responses to physi- cal challenges. Engineering heritage requires specific approaches to its identification, documentation, conservation and management. The important first step of this process is a clear understanding of the values and attributes that contribute to the significance of engineering heritage and must be safeguarded. The example of engineering herit- age examined here is the colonial steel railway bridges of Pakistan; three case study bridges are presented and the values and attributes of each are discussed. The paper then identifies a set of shared essential values of this type of engineering heritage that can serve as a basis for value-based conservation and management.
