Focusing on the contemporary period after Japan and the EU signed Strategic and Economic Partnership Agreements in 2018, the book analyses both general outlooks and world visions of the two, and the practical programmes and initiatives in the Indo-Pacific through which these are achieved. By exploring both actors’ perception of the Indo-Pacific in historical, intellectual, and political contexts, and their contemporary political interests within security, environmental, and economic dimensions, the book demonstrates how closely the duo’s roles in the region are connected.

Revealing the changing contours of the EU-Japan partnership in the Indo-Pacific, this will be a valuable resource to students and scholars of geopolitics, economic geography, and international relations, particularly of Japan, the EU, and the Indo-Pacific.
