Emmers questions the dichotomy implicit in this interpretation and
investigates what role the balance of power really plays in such
cooperative security arrangements and in the calculations of the
participants of ASEAN and the ARF. He offers a thorough analysis of
the influence the balance of power has had on the formation and
evolution of the ASEAN and ARF and reveals the co-existence and
inter-relationship between both approaches within the two
institutions.
The book contains case studies of Brunei's motives in joining the
ASEAN in 1984; ASEAN's response to the Third Indochina Conflict;
the workings of the ARF since 1994 and ASEAN's involvement in the
South China Sea dispute. It will interest students and researchers
of the ASEAN and ARF, the international politics of Southeast Asia,
Regionalism and the Balance of Power theory.
