Deepening the EU-China partnership in an unstable world : bridging institutional and ideational differences / edited by Mario Telò, Ding Chun and Zhang Xiaotong.

"The China-EC/EU relationship started in 1975 and is a highly institutionalized, complex, but to some extent controversial international partnership. It is also challenged within the current unstable world. This book addresses the convergences and the differences (ideational, political, institutional, and interests-related) between China and the EU by a collective interaction between Chinese and European scholars. Amongst other things the book assesses sectoral bilateral dialogue, focuses on the interplay between internal complexity and external policies, discusses ideational divergences in international law and rule of law and in many relevant policy fields. Furthermore, it compares sustainable growth policies, explores trade and investment controversies and negotiations, human rights dialogue, and addresses environment and climate change policies. This text will be of key interest to EU studies and politics, China studies and more broadly to Area/Asian studies and International relations/Global Governance."--Provided by publisher.
