Notwithstanding the above, the EU retains an influential, rule-making power over the global market. Its reach over rule-making has been observed to cover broad areas, including competition policy, environmental protection, food safety, privacy protection, and hate speech regulation. The mechanism of shaping this EU\u2019s influential superpower in rule-making is such that it is naturally developed through the extraterritorial application of EU standards to multinational or foreign enterprises, or EU standards themselves mandate a country where such multinational or foreign enterprises are established to have the same level of EU standards. This can be symbolized by the term \u201cthe Brussels Effect.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the 2024 plenary session, we will discuss a wide range of issues around the EU\u2019s global regulatory power, including the policy areas that are not sensitive enough to the Brussels Effect.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><strong>Symposium: The EU and the economic security<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Against the backdrop of the US-China struggle for hegemony, strengthening economic security has become one of the most important agendas in many countries. The European Commission, following the COVID-19 pandemic and Russian invasion of Ukraine, released the EU\u2019s economic security strategy on 20 June 2023, which highlights that the setting up of a common strategic framework for the EU\u2019s economic security is in pressing need, and this should be achieved by the maximization of the EU\u2019s benefits of its economic openness as well as the minimization of the risks from economic interdependence. While some values are shared with G7 member countries, its unique strategy, such as regulating outbound investment by EU enterprises to a certain extent, is justified in ensuring its \u201cstrategic autonomy.\u201d Undoubtedly, the future direction and development of the EU\u2019s strategic framework for economic security will significantly impact the third countries, including Japan.<\/p>\n<p>In this regard, the 2024 symposium will pursue various issues relevant to economic security in the EU and other areas of the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","category_en":[],"class_list":["post-4516","post-en","type-post-en","status-publish","hentry","ja"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eusa-japan.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/post-en\/4516","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eusa-japan.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/post-en"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eusa-japan.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post-en"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eusa-japan.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4516"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category_en","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eusa-japan.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategory_en&post=4516"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
