These difficulties are further compounded by global uncertainties, strengthening protectionism and rising tensions between the United States and China. Korea has been severely affected by uncertainties and risks from Europe and the EU as well as those from the global economy. This volume of research is designed to conduct research that will hopefully illuminate what kind of difficulties the EU is now facing and what implications we can draw for Korea. 

This book has several features. Firstly, it is a collaborative work by both experts in Europe on each of the issues and those from the Korea Institute for International Economic Policy (KIEP). The authors have made sincere efforts to include all possible contemporary issues observed in Europe and their important meaning to Europe and the world from the experts’ viewpoint.

Secondly, it offers an opportunity to think over the implications that contemporary European challenges provide to Korea, which, the editors believe, could arouse interest in Korea and make contributions to Korean Studies in Europe.

Thirdly, it focuses on the EU’s external relations with the US, China and Korea on top of its challenges, which reflect the changing atmosphere of its relations with the two giants and Korea.
