The connections between trade and security are hardly new. Analysts
and practitioners have clearly recognized this interrelationship
since the mercantilist arguments of the 16th and 17th centuries.
Despite wishful economic liberal thinking that might prefer to
separate the political from the economic, it is widely recognized
that trade and security are fundamentally interconnected in the
foreign policy of states. Over time, as new forms of trade policy
have come into being and the international security environment has
evolved, the nexus of these two spheres has grown more complex and
scholars have struggled to understand their interconnection This
edited volume addresses linkages between trade and security by
examining the influence of security factors in driving trade policy
measures and the corresponding implications of different types of
trade arrangements for international security. Ultimately, the
project shows that several elements traditional economic factors,
traditional security factors, and human security factors can affect
the development of trade agreements and unilateral policies, and
that trade policies may have both a direct and an indirect effect
on traditional and human security. The project focuses on Asia, a
region where economics is increasingly important but many security
issues still linger unresolved, as a primary setting to test trade
linkage theories. It also provides a comparative perspective
through examination of how the EU and US have used their trade
policies to achieve non-economic goals and how these policies have
influenced their security environment. Case studies in this project
cover key trade institutions and agreements including the World
Trade Organization, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations,
ASEAN Plus Three, the East Asia Summit, the Asia-Pacific Economic
Cooperation forum, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, and
bilateral preferential trade agreements."
