dc.description.abstract | The aim of this study is to explore the prospects and challenges for ASEAN+X forums: ASEAN+1,
+3 and +8 (or the East Asia Summit). On the one hand, many preferential economic arrangements that involve East Asian countries aim to secure wider foreign policy goals rather than purely economic goals, prominent examples of which include environment, energy, water, technology, human rights, terrorism, and the like, let alone traditional security issues. On the other hand, the likelihood of a more exclusive region in East Asia is slim at best, as member countries are sleeping in the same bed with different dreams (tongchuan yimeng), leaving the institutional contours of East Asian regionalism in flux. This study argues that the rivalry between China and Japan and the ambivalence of the U.S. have led ASEAN+X forums to mainly focus on membership issues rather than to deal with substantive regional issues. It concludes that now a tangle of regional institutions competes for attention and resources, and as long as the ASEAN+1 and +8 framework (and more recently, the TPP and the FTAAP) continues to coexist with ASEAN+3, the same bed, different dreams phenomenon will only worsen to the point that the East Asian regionalism will get more polarized before it gets integrated. | - |
