In an era of increasing geopolitical turmoil, this book looks at the impact of geopolitics on global supply chains and examines the role of China in East Asia’s regional economic integration.It evaluates the impact of geoeconomic fragmentation along different dimensions such as trade, FDI and capital flows, and provides insights into different industries and sectors where trade and investments are increasingly being reallocated and reshuffled. The book further explores how geopolitics may accelerate the internationalisation of China’s renminbi, which herald significant implications for the international monetary system. As geopolitical tensions arising from the US-China trade war continue to persist, the global semiconductor industry has also become the epicentre of US-China strategic rivalry, placing immense strain on its fragmented, global value chain. This book analyses the implications of this intensifying technological rivalry for East Asia, including the ASEAN economies.This book will be of interest to scholars and students of Asian economics, international trade, and geoeconomics. Policymakers searching for insight into Asian trade and financial markets may also find this book useful.

This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open Access programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com.This book examines, through a multi-disciplinary lens, the possibilities offered by relationships and family forms that challenge the nuclear family ideal, and some of the arguments that recommend or disqualify these as legitimate units in our societies.That children should be conceived naturally, born to and raised by their two young, heterosexual, married to each other, genetic parents; that this relationship between parents is also the ideal relationship between romantic or sexual partners; and that romance and sexual intimacy ought to be at the core of our closest personal relationships - all these elements converge towards the ideal of the nuclear family.The authors consider a range of relationship and family structures that depart from this ideal: polyamory and polygamy, single and polyparenting, parenting by gay and lesbian couples, as well as families created through assisted human reproduction.

Fast-moving and ever-changing, stem cell science and research presents ongoing ethical and legal challenges in many countries. Each development and innovation throws up new challenges. This is the case even where new developments initially seem to solve old dilemmas. Sometimes it becomes evident that new science does not in fact solve old problems and, for that reason, the ethical issues remain. In recognition of this, this book presents innovative and creative analyses of a range of ethical and legal challenges raised by stem cell research and its potential and actual application.The editors of this collection have brought together experts from ethics and law to bring fresh perspectives on the use of and research on stem cells. The chapters in this collection range across a number of different issues in the debate on stem cells, from the ethical dilemmas of conducting stem cell research to those of the clinical application of stem cell technology. Each chapter gives an in-depth and comprehensive analysis of the ethical or legal issues at stake. The early chapters give engaging new expositions on the permissibility of using embryos in stem cell research, in particular challenging our views about how we view and ‘construct’ the embryo in debates regarding stem cells. Later chapters move on to actual and potential clinical uses of stem cells and present novel arguments about these.
