Regional Economic Integration and Dispute Settlement in East Asia
Author: Anna G Tevini
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1782254870
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 587
Book Description
The accession of the People's Republic of China to the World Trade Organization (WTO) in 2001 significantly transformed the global economy both de facto and de jure. At the regional level, China's WTO accession served as an important catalyst for the establishment of Regional Trade Agreements (RTAs) in East Asia. This was a novel development for the region, since East Asian States had previously followed a largely informal, market-driven approach to regional economic integration. By contrast, rules-based economic integration involving East Asian States was traditionally limited to multilateral integration under the GATT/WTO framework. This book systematically analyses and explains the development, nature and challenges of rules-based regional economic integration in East Asia with particular attention to the region's first four RTAs. While also addressing the socio-economic, historical and political factors influencing the development of RTAs in East Asia, the book focuses on the legal institutions governing economic integration in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), as well as under the ASEAN–China Comprehensive Economic Co-Operation Agreement (ACFTA), the Japan–Singapore New Age Economic Partnership Agreement (JSEPA), and the Mainland China–Hong Kong Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement (CEPA). The book provides a systematic, comparative account of the scope, depth and (hard law versus soft law) quality of rules-based economic integration achieved under these four RTAs in the areas of trade in goods and services, investment liberalisation and protection, labour mobility, and dispute settlement.

ASEAN and Regional Order
Author: Amitav Acharya
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 100037811X
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 109
Book Description
Founded in 1967, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) has emerged as one of the most successful regional organizations in the world. This book discusses the future of ASEAN against a backdrop of a growing US–China rivalry and the security implications of COVID-19. Chapters in this book move through a history of ASEAN and its multilateral institutions, including the ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF) and the East Asia Summit (EAS), featuring rare photographic material to contextualize both recent developments in regional security and projections for ASEAN’s prospects. Key concepts and terms are unpacked throughout, with the chapters focusing on rapidly changing international and regional environments, economic insecurities such as trade conflicts, human rights, and ASEAN identity, and providing extensive analysis of the factors challenging the principle ASEAN Centrality and the Indo-Pacific security architecture. The concept of security community frames this book, despite being subject to change if intraregional discord and institutional stagnation take hold. As a discussion of the role and future of ASEAN in a pivotal period of world history, ASEAN and Regional Order will prove vital to both students and scholars of international relations, regional organizations, and Asian studies more broadly.

ASEAN and Human Trafficking
Author: Naparat Kranrattanasuit
Publisher: Martinus Nijhoff Publishers
ISBN: 900426518X
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
Trafficking in persons is a serious crime that affects the human rights, dignity and integrity of all its victims including women, men, and children in the Association of Southeast Asia Nation (ASEAN) region. ASEAN has made efforts to fight human trafficking through inter alia the establishment of regional counter-human trafficking laws and human rights bodies to establish best norms and practices for its member countries. Nevertheless, the International Labour Organization (ILO) recently declared that there are more than 11.7 million forced labor victims in the Asia-Pacific region encompassing the biggest concentration of forced labour victims in the world. This volume reviews the achievements and the deficiencies of ASEAN’s counter-human strategies at the national and regional level. It offers suggestions for the reform of ASEAN's anti-trafficking laws and for the creation of a regional anti-trafficking human rights body specialized in preventing human trafficking, promoting equal protection of all trafficking victims, and prosecuting human traffickers.

Towards a Resilient Regional Cyber Security
Author: Fitriani
Publisher: Centre for Strategic and International Studies
ISBN: 9791295301
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 214
Book Description
The rapid growth of internet, digital, social media and mobile users in Southeast Asia has increased the possibility of cyber misuse. The digital domain connects over half of the region population, opening economic possibilities, but also increasing their vulnerability to crimes and security breaches done via the internet. Aside from the cyber security challenges faced by individuals and businesses, national governments that increasingly provide their services online, as well as manage physical infrastructures that are digitally connected, have become more fragile toward cyber espionages and attacks. Furthermore, not only governments are obliged to protect national cyber security and the welfare of the population, but they are also tasked to formulate regulations for private sectors operating in cyber realm. Understanding such complexities, leaders of ASEAN have agreed to work together on cyber cooperation across the various platforms of the three pillars of ASEAN. This publication is an effort to increase public awareness of cyber issues faced by the Southeast Asian region, as well as to share experiences from ASEAN countries in dealing with the complexities of cyber development and management. Cyber domain carries a great potential for economic development and source of employment, but it is also a field of contestation for ideology spreading and power play. Notwithstanding the intricacies, cyber security is a cross-cutting issue that would benefit from the involvement of multiple stakeholders including governments, scholars and practitioners.

Book Description
The Association of Southeast Asian Nations is a miracle. Why?In an era of growing cultural pessimism, many thoughtful individuals believe that different civilisations-especially Islam and the West-cannot live together in peace. The ten countries of ASEAN provide a thriving counter-example of civilizational co-existence. Here 625m people live together in peace. This miracle was delivered by ASEAN.In an era of growing economic pessimism, where many young people believe that their lives will get worse in coming decades, Southeast Asia bubbles with optimism. In an era where many thinkers predict rising geopolitical competition and tension, ASEAN regularly brings together all the world's great powers.Stories of peace are told less frequently than stories of conflict and war. ASEAN's imperfections make better headlines than its achievements. But in the hands of thinker and writer Kishore Mahbubani, the good news story is also a provocation and a challenge to the rest of the world.This excellent book explains, in clear and simple terms, how and why ASEAN has become one of the most successful regional organizations in the world. - George YeoA powerful and passionate account of how, against all odds, ASEAN transformed the region and why Asia and the world need it even more today. - Amitav Acharya
