Opis

Two major themes in contemporary international relations-Sino-European relations and global governance-are both addressed in this volume. In its focused analysis of Sino-European relations, global governance serves as both a topic for analysis and a conceptual framework to join together individual chapters. Featuring perspectives from a diverse group of established and promising young scholars from China, Europe, and elsewhere, this book has important implications for Chinese foreign policy, the European Union, the future of global governance, and international relations at large.

Recenzje

"The book offers great material for teachers of International Relations as well as for those interested in EU-China relations." (Tim Summers, International Affairs, Vol. 94, January, 2018)
