- Abstract
- East Asia has been dominated in theory and practice by state-centric policy considerations
heavily influenced by the great powers. This perspective is threatened by
the rise of non-traditional security (NTS) challenges and undermined by great power
irresponsibility. These challenges can also, however, represent avenues of opportunity
for other actors. The central research question addressed by this article, therefore,
is what role can and should be played by newly empowered or recognized actors in
addressing NTS challenges, according to policy prescription from more reflectivist
approaches to international relations theory? This article utilizes social constructivism
and related perspectives to identify how regional middle powers and civil societies
can be empowered as agents with a responsibility to innovate in the construction of
institutions responsive to NTS challenges.
