Denne afhandling undersøger, hvordan EU’s handelspolitik reagerer på Kinas voksende økonomiske magt. Den forklarer, hvad handelspolitik er – de regler og beslutninger, der former handel med varer, tjenester og investeringer – og hvorfor Kinas stigende rolle i verdensøkonomien påvirker EU’s overvejelser. Afhandlingen skitserer ændringer i EU’s mål, værktøjer og prioriteringer og diskuterer den balance, EU søger mellem åben handel, fair konkurrence, forsyningssikkerhed og værdibaserede hensyn. Formålet er at give et klart overblik over centrale tendenser, drivkræfter og mulige konsekvenser for borgere, virksomheder og internationale relationer.

This thesis examines how the EU’s trade policy is responding to China’s growing economic power. It explains what trade policy is—the rules and decisions that govern trade in goods, services, and investment—and why China’s expanding role in the global economy is shaping EU thinking. The thesis outlines changes in EU objectives, tools, and priorities and discusses the balance the EU seeks between open markets, fair competition, supply security, and value-based considerations. The goal is to provide a clear overview of key trends, drivers, and possible implications for citizens, businesses, and international relations.
