Europe and China in the Global Economy in the Next 50 Years: A Partnership for Global Peace and Stability

This article proceeds by first looking into China's rising consumer market and discussing potential opportunities to the European economies. Next, it examines China's One Belt and One Road initiative and argues that this could be an opportunity for European economic recovery and a long-term strategy to stem out illegal migration. It then discusses the state of China-EU economic relations, proposes a policy agenda to leverage mutual strengths and concludes that a constructive bilateral economic relationship will help contribute to global growth and prosperity.
