Deepening regionalism in Asia demands new leadership. Strong elites
who are committed to a supranational identity are a minimum
requirement of successful regionalism. Regional leaders are
increasingly seen as a new set of leaders in Europe. Currently,
Asian regional leaders largely come from the diplomacy community,
or trade and economic sectors. Yet further regionalization demands
a new type of leadership from civil society and citizens. In this
context it is important to cultivate new regional leadership
through the development of regional citizenship. This book examines
contested ideas of regionalism in Asia with a particular focus on
two competing ideas of pan-Asianism and Pacificism. It also
identifies a new trend and contestation, the fundamental shift from
a civilization understanding of regionalism to a technocratic and
functional understanding of regionalism in the form of regulatory
regionalism. It also examines the other contested imaginations of
regionalism in Asia including elitist versus participatory
approaches to regionalism, and democracy-centric versus
nationalism-centric approaches to regionalism.
