The Implications of Brexit for East Asia

This book is the first comprehensive exploration of the impact Brexit might have on both Britains and the EUs role in a rising East Asia. From the internationalization of the renminbi to Hong Kongs fraught political status quo, and from former British colonies exploring their place in the world to Americas place in East Asia in the Trump era, the EU plays an influential role in Asia today. However, much of this derives from Britains role and interests, even as Asian models were explicitly cited as models for post-Brexit Britain, particularly the Singaporean model. This book will be of value to scholars, policymakers, and journalists seeking to understand what role the EU and Britain will play in the Asian century.
