Funded Activity Summary

Trade, geopolitics and security: Understanding Japan’s choice of regional free trade agreements. Sino-Japanese strategic rivalry and conflict over maritime territory are increasingly injecting geopolitical and security concerns into the formulation of Japanese trade policy. This project aims to investigate how these newly emerging influences are intersecting with economic and trade priorities in Japan’s choice of regional free trade agreements involving Australia: the Trans-Pacific Economic Partnership and the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership. The study will apply the insights gained from the research to deepen our understanding of the nexus between trade and security in Japan’s choice of regional free trade partners and the wider geostrategic implications of this choice for the Asia-Pacific region.
