Since the early 1990s and the end of the Cold War, the implications
of China's rising power have come to dominate the security agenda
of the Asia-Pacific region. This book is the first to
comprehensively chart the development of Southeast Asia's relations
with the People's Republic of China (PRC) from 1949 to 2010,
detailing each of the eleven countries' ties to the PRC and showing
how strategic concerns associated with China's regional posture
have been a significant factor in shaping their foreign and defence
policies. In addition to assessing bilateral ties, the book also
examines the institutionalization of relations between the
Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and China. The first
part of the book covers the period 1949-2010: it examines Southeast
Asian responses to the PRC in the context of the ideological and
geopolitical rivalry of the Cold War; Southeast Asian countries'
policies towards the PRC in first decade of the post-Cold War era;
and deepening ties between the ASEAN states and the PRC in the
first decade of the twenty-first century. Part Two analyses the
evolving relationships between the countries of mainland Southeast
Asia - Vietnam, Thailand, Myanmar, Laos and Cambodia - and China.
Part Three reviews ties between the states of maritime Southeast
Asia - Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, Brunei and
East Timor - and the PRC. Whilst the primary focus of the book is
the security dimension of Southeast Asia-China relations, it also
takes full account of political relations and the burgeoning
economic ties between the two sides. This book is a timely
contribution to the literature on the fast changing geopolitics of
the Asia-Pacific region.
