Background

Martyn de Bruyn specializes in the study of comparative regional integration and institutional reform of the European Union (EU). He has written on federalism and constitutionalization in the European Union, direct democracy and the use of referendums to ratify EU treaties. Another strain of his research focuses on EU external relations with a focus on East Asia. He has written on European confidence and trust-building experiences and the implications for the inter-Korean relations, inter regionalism and the EU as global player.

His work has been published in Asia Europe Journal, Contemporary Political Society, The Journal of Contemporary European Studies, and On Korea. He serves as an international editorial board member of Contemporary Political Society. His current research, titled “The European Union, Japan, and the Elusive Global Human Security Partnership,” is included in an edited volume, Human Security, Changing States and Global Responses: Institutions and Practices.
