The Shifting Security Architecture in Europe and the Asia-Pacific

Building on the EU-China, EU-Japan and EU-Asia Security Relations projects, this project will study the transformation of the US-led alliances in both Europe and the Asia-Pacific. It will place this analysis within a comparative framework by bridging the dynamics in the European and Asian-Pacific contexts. The project is headed by the University of Antwerp and will run from 2020 for three years.
