The Nixon or Guam Doctrine of 1969 stressed the importance of
progress towards regional cooperation and Asian collective
security, indicating that Asian countries themselves should take
the initiative in creating programs in which the United States
could participate. This book analyses the development of United
States regional cooperation policy on Southeast Asia and its
importance to long-term planning for the region that had been the
general aim of successive American post-war administrations. The
author demonstrates the link between economic regional cooperation
and collective security in Southeast Asia, placing regionalism in
an international context by examining the influence United States
policy and various important events had on the development of
Southeast Asian regionalism. Through the analysis of primary
material, including previously classified material, in the United
States, the United Kingdom, and Australia and engagement with
historiography of war and peace in Southeast Asia, the book puts
forward the argument that Southeast Asian regional cooperation was
influenced by both American and Asian policy and its development
reflected the economic and political transformation of the post-war
Southeast Asian landscape. It also examines the developments in
British and Australian policy and how developments in Southeast
Asia influenced and, in turn, were affected by the policies of the
Western powers. Adding to the current discourse concerning the
origins of Southeast Asian regionalism, this book will be of
interest to academics in the field of Southeast Asian studies,
United States political history, international relations and
regionalism.
