Summary / Abstract (Note) | On 1 May 2004 the European Union's biggest Enlargement ever materialised when ten countries joined the EU. The new member states-Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, the Slovak Republic, and Slovenia-brought 75 million new citizens into the Union which now comprises a population of 455 million. In spite of the historical importance of EU enlargement, it seems to have raised relatively little interest beyond Europe. This paper tries to narrow the research gap by discussing the most significant implications of EU enlargement for Europe-Asia relations in the areas of general inter-regional (political) links, trade and investment |
