About this book
Reviews
“An insightful, timely and must-read publication on an often-overlooked but increasingly important aspect of EU-Asia relations. I see it becoming indispensable reading for all those interested in EU-Asia relations including EU, Asian and US policymakers as they seek to hammer out a new, more constructive and mature script for their complex future geopolitical interactions.”
-Shada Islam is Founder of New Horizons Project, a global analysis company and the former EU correspondent of the Hong Kong-based Far Eastern Economic Review newsweekly.
“This most timely and comprehensive analysis of the EU’s multidimensional and multifaceted security relations with Asia provides up-to-date analysis that helps to better understand and explain the EU’s actual and potential role as a security actor on the regional, interregional and global levels of international relations. It should become essential reading for scholars, students and practitioners with an interest in European, Asian and global security affairs.”
-Prof. Dr. Sebastian Bersick, Jean Monnet Chair, Ruhr University Bochum, Germany
“This book provides the most comprehensive academic analysis to date of the European Union’s emerging security relations with Asian states, with detailed chapters on the EU’s security interactions with all the main Asian states and ASEAN, as well as the full spectrum of security issues. … a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the dilemmas facing the EU as it debates how to respond to China’s rising power and an emerging US-China Cold War.”
-Prof. Andrew Cottey, Department of Government and Politics, University College CorkEditors and Affiliations
