- Summary:
-
"Amidst the Eurozone crisis, the European Union (EU) is stepping up its dialogue and engagement with and within Southeast Asia. The EU's contemporary approach towards Asia emphasises the importance of open economies and common challenges of the 21st Century. So-called non-traditional security issues have been portrayed increasingly as an avenue to share experiences and enhance cooperation between the EU and Southeast Asia. This contemporary conceptual re-orientation demands a closer look at the EU as an actor in Southeast Asia. This book is the first contemporary monograph-length discussion of the EU as a politico-security actor in Southeast Asia post-Cold War. Drawing upon the historical and institutional context and a broad range of empirical case studies, it illustrates that so-called non-traditional security crises are providing an increasingly important frame to enhance the EU as a politico-security influence in the region. It considers the non-traditional security crises of the late 1990s and early 2000s as triggers for enhanced regional and inter-regional cooperation. In doing so, the book construes new insights into our understanding of the EU as a global actor and its normative influence in regions far away from Europe"--
