研究実績の概要 |
In late 2022, I published a co-edited book with Routledge, based on work I have done on this topic. From April 2022 until September 2022 I spent research time editing the manuscript. The book is titled: The Sustainable Development Goals: Diffusion and Contestation in Asia and Europe, Routledge, New York, 2023. I wrote the conclusion to the book, and contributed two co-authored book chapters. One of the chapters is on the 'spiral model', the theory I am using for this JSPS project. The other is a case study on EU and ILO activity in Thailand, with regard to IUU fishing and forced labour. This publication is directly connected to this JSPS research project.
I also published a co-authored article on norm diffusion in Journal of Common Market Studies, a high-impact journal on EU studies.

1: 当初の計画以上に進展している
理由
I have already produced a co-authored Routledge book, and a high-impact journal article as deliverables for this project. The next stage is to look at developments in Thailand post-Covid, and new EU attempts to monitor fisheries supply chains in Southeast Asia. I also want to investigate the EU's 'fisheries yellow card diplomacy' in Vietnam, which also seems to be successful, and investigate the theoretical and practical connections of these cases to the so-called 'Brussels Effect' framework, which claims that the EU is a regulatory superpower. I thus want to expand the theoretical and case study scope of this project. Finally, I want to investigate the EU and the Quad's attempts to securitize the issue of IUU fishing in the context of maritime security in the Free and Open Indo-Pacific.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
I will travel to Bangkok in May 2023 to re-interview my existing contacts, and set up a new round of interviews. I will present a paper on norm diffusion at a regional EU studies conference in Bangkok in July. I will organize a research workshop on FOIP and IUU in November. I will also make a presentation on latest findings at a workshop in Brussels in March 2024, to an audience of EU foreign policy academics and diplomats. (I organized a book launch for the SDGs book in Brussels last March to promote my research achievements so far). I would also like to broaden my study to include Vietnam, and I plan to carry out interviews in Hanoi in February 2024. I expect some new publications to come out of this new round of research activity before the end of this JSPS project in March 2025.

次年度使用額が生じた理由 |
I was not able to travel as much as I thought last year, for various reasons. This year, I intend to travel more often to conduct interviews. The situation with regard to EU involvement and the promotion of the IUU agenda is changing, and the EU is becoming more active. Therefore, I will make trips to Indonesia, Vietnam and Thailand to learn more about developments on the ground. It is important to stay for at least a few days to have time to interview people. There are opportunities for original new research on each of these country case case studies, so it is important to study each one.
