ASEAN Regionalism & Development
Clicking on the book title or image will link you to the e-book
This book examines how the region negotiates pathways of development through five countries. At two ends of one decade, 1997-2007, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam all had to weather the shocks of an East Asian financial crisis and a global financial crisis.
Regional Organisations in International Society: ASEAN, the EU and the Politics of Normative Arguing
This book explores the normative foundations of ASEAN and the EU. It revives the history of the two organisations in an in-depth narrative of the protracted arguments surrounding their establishment and enlargement.
Written by the highly regarded diplomat Marty Natalegawa, former ambassador and foreign minister of Indonesia, this book offers a unique insider-perspective on the present and future relevance of ASEAN.
Since its founding in 1967, ASEAN has attracted both sceptics and proponents. Find out the differences in how sceptics and proponents perceive ASEAN, and why they take up such contrasting positions.
