| Summary/Abstract |
The EU and China may strike observers as actors with fundamentally different political and normative outlooks and thus unlikely partners in international security. Yet, Benjamin Barton argues, the international fight against piracy in the Indian Ocean has provided them with the opportunity to forge a more collaborative relationship in the realm of maritime security. Their convergence on counter-piracy may also provide interesting lessons with regard to Europe's broader strategic engagement of China.
