Riassunto

Since the mid-1990s, the European Union has defined the Asia Pacific as one of its key strategic targets on its ambitious road towards a global power. Over the past decades, big changes have taken place on both sides and the wider world. It’s high time to evaluate the EU’s performance in its Asian policy. In fact, the EU is at crossroads with its Asia Pacific policy. On several aspects, the EU is compelled to redefine its interests and roles, and rethink its strategies and policies towards the dynamic and ever important Asia Pacific region. This volume addresses this theme, by elaborating the general context, major issues and countries in the EU’s Asia Pacific policy. It covers issue areas of traditional security, economy and trade, public diplomacy, and human security and focuses on the EU’s relations with China, Japan, the ASEAN countries, and Australasia.

'This welcome volume is well organised, brings together a strong set of expert contributors and benefits from a strong set of common themes and questions. It raises and explores a range of highly significant ideas about the EU’s capacity to become a strategic actor in East and Southeast Asia, and analyses them from both a European and an Asia-Pacific perspective.'

Michael Smith, Professor in European Politics, University of Warwick

Since the mid-1990s, the European Union (EU) has defined the Asia-Pacific region as a key strategic target on its ambitious road towards being a global power. In light of internal challenges within the EU and new developments in world politics, the EU is being compelled to redefine its interests and roles, and rethink its strategies and policies towards the ever more important and dynamic Asia-Pacific region. This volume is the first to examine the EU’s foreign policy towards the region in such comprehensive detail, covering security policy, economy and trade, public diplomacy and human security.
