DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Europe and the Asia-Pacific is the most wide-ranging and accessible book currently available on the increasingly important relationship between these two regions. Compiled by leading experts, it covers the historical background, contemporary political setting and the vitally important economic aspects of this relationship. Moving on to deal with security considerations and policy decisions it provides valuable insights into the developing partnership between Europe and the Asia-Pacific. Rigorous and up-to-date, it is born out of the work of the Council for Asia-Europe cooperation (CAEC), a body of think tanks that supports the Asia-Europe Summit Meeting (ASEM) process.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This book is the first in a major new series examining Global Economic Institutions and contrasts regional economic integration in the Asia Pacific Region and in Europe. In the Asia Pacific Region, regionalism is developing by means of "open regionalism", which is different from the regionalism which has developed in Europe, through the construction of a single European Market and Monetary Union within the European Union. In the light of this contrast, a number of important contemporary policy questions are considered.

The Rationale and Common Agenda for Asia-Europe Cooperation

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This publication from the Council for Asia-Europe Cooperation (CAEC), launched in May 1996 by major policy research institutions in Asia and Europe to promote policy-oriented intellectual exchange between the two regions, is the culmination of nearly two years of study by five teams of Asian and European experts. In one of the first attempts to analyze the necessity of Asia-Europe cooperation, and certainly the most comprehensive, nine authors examine in five reports the rationale for facilitating greater cooperation between the two regions and the common agenda that should be addressed. The authors discuss the geopolitical, political and economic security, economic and business, institutional, and societal dimensions of cooperation in the context of the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM). Their overview chapter suggests a structure for ASEM cooperative activities and lists some priorities for future work. The Japan Center for International Exchange is the Asian secretariat of CAEC. The International Institute for Strategic Studies in London acts as European secretariat.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Much more than a simple examination of EU-Asia relations, this book examines the idea that the EU may constitute a 'model' for East Asian regionalism. It challenges specialists on the EU to understand the EU's impact on Asia and Asia's impact on the EU whilst illustrating that there is a commonality of interests in both Europe and Asia.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Since the end of the Cold War, European and East Asian states have developed a series of unique trans-boundary structures and agreements, such as the European Union and ASEAN, and through new bilateral, multilateral and inter-regional relationships both Europe and East Asia are helping to transform other regions and the global community. This publication examines the complex emergence of a multi-level global governance system through innovative developments in info-communications governance; the role of policy advisors, think-tanks and related track-2 processes; and changes in higher education systems.
Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC)

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) was founded in 1989. Since then the forum has developed into a major player in tri-partite relations between North America, East Asia and Europe. The Seattle and Bogor Summits were landmark events suggesting to many observers a gravitational shift in the world economy and world politics. Yet the Asian financial crisis had a sobering effect on high-flying expectations as APEC contributed little to crisis management. In the light of such contradictory performance, distinguished scholars here examine APEC's achievements and failures, its role and functions in international relations, its linkages with regional organisations and the interplay between the forum and national interests of major factors in the region.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Bridges (politics and sociology, Lingnan College, Hong Kong) analyzes the contemporary economic, political, and security relations between western Europe and the Asia Pacific regions. After surveying the historical legacies of colonialism and de-colonization, he describes the successive economic challenges, first from Japan, then the newly industrializing economies of Asia, and most recently southeastern Asia and China. He concludes that the future of relations between the two regions will be shaped by moves toward greater European integration, how Asia responds to the current financial crisis, and the development of new dialogue between them.
