Overview

This Palgrave Pivot book analyses the current state of economic and financial relations between China and the European Union. It illustrates the ‘de-risking’ strategy that informs much of financial policy between China and the EU and argues that this differs from the policy of ‘decoupling’ that characterizes the US approach towards China. Exploring how the EU positions itself in the context of a trade and tech race between the US and China, the book sketches out a range of geopolitical challenges for Europe as it navigates current and future scenarios in global economic cooperation and competition. It discusses the concept of ‘strategic autonomy’ for the EU and explores barriers to achieving this as well as options for re-shaping relations with China. The book provides an excellent overview for researchers and policy-makers of Sino-EU economic relations today and sets them firmly in the contexts of the post-pandemic world with new global value chains, rapid technological development, and evolving environmental challenges.
