Michael Leifer, who died in 2001, was one of the leading scholars
of Southeast Asian international relations. He was hugely
influential through his extensive writings and his contacts with
people in government and business in the region. He also inspired
many new students of the region, an impressively large number of
whom are now leading figures in their own right in the study of
Southeast Asian international relations.
In this important book many of Michael Leifer's students,
colleagues and friends come together to explore the key themes of
Michael's work, and to discuss the contributions he made. The
particular themes explored include the notion of 'order' - a key
theme in Michael Leifer's work, a concept never fully defined; the
institutions concerned with regional order, especially ASEAN and
the ASEAN Regional Forum, which Michael viewed as being only
limited in their effectiveness; maritime security and its
management, a little studied, but highly important, aspect of
Southeast Asian Security, where the interests of China potentially
conflict with those of Southeast Asian states; and the making of
foreign policy within particular states, where Michael Leifer
emphasised the important role of the different worldviews of
different states. The book concludes with an overall assessment of
Michael Leifer's contribution to the study of Southeast Asian
international politics.
