Containing fourteen chapters by leading Indian and Polish specialists, this volume provides a comprehensive overview of Poland's presence, role, and profile in Asia. It examines Poland's multifaceted economic and political relations, as well as defence cooperation, with its key Asian strategic partners-China (2011), South Korea (2013), Japan (2015), and India (2024). The book also discusses Poland's interactions with Central Asia, Vietnam, the Philippines, and regional organizations such as ASEAN and ASEM. It makes an in-depth analysis of the Asian diaspora in Poland.

Filling a long-felt gap in the available literature on Poland-Asia relations, this well-researched book examines mutual perceptions, the complexity, the elements of convergence and divergence as well as the challenges and prospects of Poland's relations with Asia.

This volume is a sequel to  India and Central Europe: Perceptions, Perspectives, Prospects  (Palgrave Macmillan, 2021) and  Poland and South Asia: Deepening Engagement (Palgrave Macmillan, 2024)
