This book offers insights into the state of EU-Korea relations and considers potential lessons for other bilateral and regional initiatives. Every essay in this volume is written by European and Korean experts in international law. Each examines a particular aspect of the legal framework for EU-Korea relations, analysing the scope and substance of the relevant legal rules, as well as the opportunities and challenges for future cooperation. The contributions cover a wide range of policy areas, including trade, competition, and investment, as well as cooperation in non-economic areas, such as environmental protection and security policy, and aim to offer insights not only into the state of EU-Korea relations, but also potential lessons for other bilateral and regional initiatives. This is the first major study of the recently concluded South Korea-EU FTA and its implications for relations between the two partners. It is an exciting collaboration between European and Korean authors with a range of knowledge and expertise in international law and EU law. It analyses the key provisions of the South Korea-EU FTA in detail. It identifies potential opportunities and challenges for future relations between the two partners.
