Asia and Europe in the 21st Century: New Anxieties, New Opportunities

The contemporary century’s principles and values underwent a re-evaluation in the context of the global order. The post-Cold War ideologies have shaped the unipolar international order, which is led by the United States (US). Values like democracy, international law, respect for human rights, and state sovereignty are now up against a revisionist opposition. The anti-liberal international order has replaced it due to the development of populism, trade protectionism and identity politics. This edited book by Rahul Mishra, Azirah Hashim and Anthony Milner focuses on the concerns and objectives that both European and Asian governments have, the connections between the two, and building on the initiatives of the US and China, the two superpowers of the current century.
