Relations between the EU and East Asia have consistently expanded
in recent years, particularly between the EU and Japan. Against the
background of negotiations on an economic and strategic partnership
agreement, the EU-Japan relationship is set to become the single
most comprehensive 'region-to-state' relationship the world has
known today, accounting for more than a third of world GDP and a
combined population of more than 600 million people. This book
addresses the potential role of the EU, in cooperation with Japan,
to craft a stable and prosperous mode of governance in the Asian
region. In today's globalized world seemingly defined by waxing
Chinese power and waning American power, the book reflects the lack
of appreciation for an EU-Japan concert in maintaining and
developing multilateral principles. It aims towards fortifying this
relationship by acknowledging that in order to enhance the
credibility and capabilities of such an alliance, it is necessary
to take stock of where the partnership stands today, what kind of
obstacles still need to be overcome and which options have been
left untouched. By introducing state-of-the-art empirical research
in multiple fields, this book will be of key interest to students
and scholars of international relations, comparative regionalism,
the European Union and Japanese politics.

Global Constitutionalism argues that parts of international law can
be understood as being grounded in the rule of law and human
rights, and insists that international law can and should be
interpreted and progressively developed in the direction of greater
respect for and realization of those principles. Global
Constitutionalism has been discussed primarily by European
scholars. Yet without the engagement of scholars from other parts
of the world, the universalist claims underlying Global
Constitutionalism ring hollow. This is particularly true with
regard to East Asia, where nearly half the world's population and a
growing share of global economic and military capacities are
located. Are East Asian perspectives on Global Constitutionalism
similar to European perspectives? Against the background of current
power shifts in international law, this book constitutes the first
cross-cultural work on various facets of Global Constitutionalism
and elaborates a more nuanced concept that fits our times.
