Recenzje

"This text has the ambitious task of attempting to consider EU-ASEAN relations in a wholesome fashion. As a taster, it provides an excellent insight into the challenges and dynamics within the EU-ASEAN relationship ... . There is opportunity to develop the ideas presented in this book, thereby providing a useful springboard for further discussions." (Helen Tung, Journal of Common Market Studies, Vol. 53 (2), 2015) 

"This book is a welcome contribution to the study of EU ASEAN relations for two reasons: first, it goes beyond inter-regionalism as a rather tight analytical framework that has neither developed nor evolved markedly in recent years and thus tends to limit the scope of investigation. Second, the authors add some innovative and original aspects to the debate." - Journal of Current Southeast Asian Affairs
