| Summary |
Negotiations for a new EU-China Partnership and Cooperation Agreement began in January 2007 and are likely to take two to three years. This is the first book to explore the wide range of issues affecting the China-EU relationship, including the US factor, environmental issues, WTO, governance, civil society, democracy, the RMB, energy security, Taiwan, Japan, North Korea and many others. The result of an intense, collaborative exercise between respected Chinese and European scholars, this timely book highlights the necessity of a China-EU relationship and why it will be mutually beneficial. Recommendations for the harmonious development of relations between China and the EU are offered as well. |
