Until the late 1980s, Japan was the only country in Asia with notable political and economic relations. Since then, however, several Asian nations have perceived growing links with the Latin American region as a means of diversifying their political and particularly economic relations while many Latin American decision-makers have increasingly recognised the strategic importance of East Asia in their foreign policy and foreign economic policy designs. This book analyses the economic, political and socio-cultural relations between Asia and Latin America and examines their growing importance in international relations. In the first part of the book the contributors look at the policies, interests and strategies of individual Asian and Latin American states, while the second part delves into the analysis of multilateral institution-building in Asia-Latin America relations,. As such, Asia and Latin America will be of interest to undergraduate and postgraduate scholars of comparative politics, international relations, Asian politics and Latin American politics.

Este libro plantea algunas concepciones alternativas presentes en los debates en torno a la integración latinoamericana, a partir de conceptos clásicos sobre el desarrollo, el liderazgo, la soberanía, el Estado y la diplomacia. Estos conceptos han replanteado y orientado las discusiones y reflexiones planteadas en el presente tomo a partir de enfoques alternativos como el ecologismo, la integración energética, la relación desarrollo-autonomía y el colonialismo intelectual en un contexto de modernidad líquida, los cuales, dada la relevancia y pertinencia de nuevos actores, han dado paso a fortalecer la paradiplomacia en el actual escenario al que se asiste. En este sentido, las discusiones retoman variaciones y reconceptualizaciones en medio de los actuales debates que acompañan el marco conceptual y la realidad en materia de integración regional desde las particularidades de la región latinoamericana.
Esta obra se sitúa en un espacio vacante: el abordaje desde las Ciencias Sociales del tema de las energías renovables no convencionales (ERNC). Estas temáticas, es sabido, suelen quedar circunscriptas al lenguaje de la ingeniería o a la investigación económica. La energía de los emergentes se propone, por un lado, integrar aspectos de estas problemáticas que habitualmente son tratados por separado; y por otro, intenta sacar a la luz zonas oscuras o hasta innominadas del campo de las energías alternativas a las tradicionales. Aquí se dan cita, convocados por el Global Studies Programme de la Universidad de Friburgo (Alemania) y FLACSO Argentina, pensadores y expertos provenientes de...
