Rezensionen

"The Handbook puts the EU-Korea in the larger context of the EU foreign policy which is more than a China policy. It highlights what strategic partners can achieve in the policy areas which will shape the 21^st century. In times of great power competition, a forceful testimony of the need for Europe to engage in times when security has become intertwined and indivisible. The security on the Korean Peninsula is also a key factor in the Indo-Pacific."

Herman Van Rompuy, President Emeritus European Council

"The Europe-Republic of Korea relations are now heading in the direction of global governance in the sense that both are contributing substantially to the provision of global public goods. Sustaining multilateral institutions, cherishing and protecting universal human values, providing stability in both regions, and broadening open and fair markets are important examples of their global contributions. As the Republic of Korea is developing fast to become an advanced democracy with technological edge in many future technologies, the cooperation between Europe and the Republic of Korea is entering into a new chapter. On the other hand, the EU-DPRK relations seem a lot less dynamic and slow to evolve into mature partnership. The EU, however, still remains a hopeful platform to reignite future-oriented cooperation, and shares long history of mutual contacts and diplomatic innovations. This handbook is a must read for all the readers and experts who are interested in comprehensive understanding of contemporary EU-Korea relations."

Geun LEE, President of Korea Foundation

"At a time when the centre of geopolitical gravity is decisively tilting East, this handbook, unpacking relations between Europe and the Korean peninsula, is a must read for all scholars and practitioners of European foreign policy."

Nathalie Tocci, Director of the Istituto Affari Internazionali, Italy, and Special Advisor to EU High Representative
