Agenda of workshop is to establish an original and viable comparative framework for understanding the development of maritime order and naval powers in Asia through the lens of the European experience; and an opportunity to grapple with more fundamental issues of nationhood, sovereignty, transnational processes, realist and cultural strategic culture, and self-regulation of non-state actors in the maritime space
The Centre for Rising Powers and L'Ecole Des Haute Etudes en Sciences Sociales are pleased to announce a joint workshop on
Europe’s Past, Asia’s Future?
