About this book
Reviews
“Trade policy, long relegated to the technical realm, has recently moved to the forefront of high politics. The use of trade for geo-strategic purpose, and of economic statecraft more broadly, represents a fundamental shift in the trade policy of the European Union and opens up a new era of global uncertainty. This great volume is one of the first to address directly the recent geo-politicization of EU trade policy. It is also notable for its promising merger of the International Political Economy and Foreign Policy literatures, which often exist in their own academic silos. Bringing together an impressive roster of established and rising scholars from all around the globe, A Geo-Economic Turn in Trade Policy shine a particularly important focus on the Asia-Pacific region,which is of obvious contemporary relevance. A must-read!” (Sophie Meunier, Princeton University)
