Investment in new infrastructures contributes significantly to the current rapid transformation of Asia. This thematic line of the Shaping Asia networking initiative studies the recursive processes by which new investments shape the social texture of Asian societies and visa-versa. We propose comparison as an ideal tool to map contrasts and similarities across different countries and understand the role of inner-Asian relations. We organise the analysis around three key experiences as part of implementing large-scale projects: adaptation, orchestration and cooperation. The three focus areas consider (1) the way new digital systems for the management of population are situationally adapted to different localities in Asia, (2) the streamlining effects of global engineering solutions for costal protection in South and South East Asia, and (3) the character of international collaboration in trans-border infrastructure projects. A core group of participating scholars has been chosen for their expertise in the relevant fields. This project will develop innovative methods for in-depth comparison and help to understand the relation between new infrastructures, political cultures, trans-regional connections and cooperation. Through interactions with the other members of the Shaping Asia networking initiative and during consultation with further experts, this project will contribute to a better understanding of the processes by which Asian futures are being produced.

对新基础设施的投资对亚洲目前的快速转型做出了重大贡献。塑造亚洲网络倡议的这一主题研究了新投资塑造亚洲社会结构的递归过程，反之亦然。我们建议将比较作为一种理想的工具来绘制不同国家之间的对比和相似之处，并了解亚洲内部关系的作用。我们围绕三个关键经验进行分析，作为实施大型项目的一部分：适应，协调和合作。这三个重点领域考虑：（1）新的人口管理数字系统如何适应亚洲不同地区的情况，（2）南亚和东南亚海岸保护全球工程解决方案的精简效果，以及（3）跨境基础设施项目国际合作的特点。一批核心学者因其在相关领域的专门知识而被选中。该项目将开发创新的方法进行深入的比较，并帮助理解新的基础设施，政治文化，跨区域联系和合作之间的关系。通过与塑造亚洲网络倡议的其他成员的互动以及与其他专家的磋商，该项目将有助于更好地了解亚洲未来的形成过程。
