Regional Community Building in East Asia

This volume is a collection of papers written by nationals or former nationals of their respective countries in ASEAN and Northeast Asia. Unlike other works written by scholars outside ASEAN or East Asia, it offers an insiders point of view of the 10 ASEAN states, China, Japan and South Korea on regional community building. While a nationalist perspective may permeate throughout the study, it is also clear that pursuing regional cooperation is considered to be important by the chapter authors, denoting the non-exclusivity between nationalism and regionalism and the mutual reinforcement of the two.

Each author of this volume has made a deliberate effort to introduce and survey the developmental challenges and experiences of his or her country from a historical perspective. All authors, without exception, have emphasized the importance and advantages in staying with ASEAN or the linking of ASEAN with China, Japan and South Korea in political-security, economic and socio-cultural terms. Their papers also reveal that the self-help and self-strengthening mechanism emphasized by the ASEAN Plus Three process will take time to bear fruit. In the meantime, it seems that bilateral interactions and cooperation between ASEAN and Northeast Asian states remain very dominant as shown in this study. One can argue that bilateral interactions are the building blocks of multilateral interactions. To be sure, there is a deliberate effort in this study to highlight unity in diversity in East Asia in general and ASEAN in particular.
