Beschreibung
EU-Malaysian relations are all too often seen through the lens of
economics and trade. Although this is legitimate, an extension of
cooperation could also open up new avenues of collaboration and
understanding between Europe and Asia. This volume brings together
manifold perspectives on economics, finance, trade, education, history,
culture, gender, human rights, and multiculturalism – issues which are
currently gaining in importance.
