| Abstract
|
:
|
The Asia-Pacific is important, but also complex and contested, region. Containing three of world's largest economies and some of its most important strategic relationships, the region's capacity of regional elites to promote continuing economic development while simultaneously maintaining peace and stability will be one defining challenges of the twenty-first century international order. We might expect regional institutions to play a major role in achieving this. Yet one of the most widely noted characteristics of Asia-Pacific region has been its modest levels of institutional development. As individual economies in the Asia-Pacific become more deeply integrated, there is a growing interest in developing and adding to institutions that already exist. Institutions of the Asia-Pacific examines how this region is developing, and what role established organizations like APEC and new bodies like ASEAN Plus Three are playing in this process. Mark Beeson introduces the nature of the very region itself - should it be the "Asia-Pacific" or "East Asia" to which we pay most attention and expect to see most institutional development. By placing these developments in historical context, he reveals why the definition of the region remains unsettled and why political, economic and strategic relations of this diverse region remain difficult to manage--Publisher's description.
