Regionalism in the Asia-Pacific is a complex, diverse, highly
contested and still rapidly evolving phenomenon. Crucial to an
understanding of this phenomenon is the relationship between
globalization and regionalization, between states, markets and
civil society, and between US hegemony and Asian aspirations. This
volume, the sequel to States, Markets and Civil Society in Asia
Pacific, makes these interacting relationships the centrepiece of
its analysis. It examines the multiple attempts at institutional
innovation, especially over the last twenty years, by placing them
in their geo-political, geo-economic and cultural contexts. ASEAN,
the ASEAN Regional Forum, APEC, ASEAN+3, ASEM, sub-regional
economic zones, KEDO, CSCAP and other organizations are surveyed
not as ends in themselves but for what they tell us of shifting
political, economic and normative trends in Asia-Pacific and
beyond. Comparing and contrasting the roles of great and middle
powers, of state and non-state actors, and of governmental and
non-governmental regional organizations, this book will appeal to
scholars with an interest in the political economy of the
Asia-Pacific region, international relations, and regional and
global governance. Regionalism in the New Pacific Order will be
invaluable to policymakers, diplomats, business analysts,
journalists, NGO representatives, and researchers with a stake in
the future development of the Asia-Pacific region.
