The Dynamics of EU-Japan Relations in the Indo-Pacific, Gebunden

Klappentext

This book evaluates the deepening accord the EU and Japan hold in the Indo-Pacific region, in terms of security, economy and values.

Focusing on the contemporary period after Japan and the EU signed Strategic and Economic Partnership Agreements in 2018, the book analyses both general outlooks and world visions of the two, and the practical programs and initiatives in the Indo-Pacific through which these are achieved. By exploring both actors' perception of the Indo-Pacific in historical, intellectual, and political contexts, and its contemporary political interests within security, environmental and economic dimensions, the book demonstrates how closely the duo's roles in the region are connected.

Revealing the changing contours of the EU-Japan partnership in the Indo-Pacific, this will be a valuable resource to students and scholars of geopolitics, economic geography and international relations, particularly of Japan, the EU and the Indo-Pacific.
