Abstract

This study examines the scale of energy trade between China and Belt and Road countries (2008-2019), revealing spatial clustering of energy trade and terrorist activities. Using spatial econometric models, it investigates the impacts and spatial spillover effects of terrorism on China's energy trade. Findings show terrorism negatively impacts China's energy imports, with positive spatial spillover effects. The number of terrorist activities and deaths also negatively affect imports but without spatial spillover. Terrorism doesn't affect energy exports but shows negative spatial spillover effects. Economic development, transportation convenience, and energy export dependence significantly influence China's energy trade.
