The politics of economic regionalism explaining regional economic integration in East Asia

Economic regionalism has taken a different path in East Asia. In contrast to the government-engineered and highly institutionalized regionalism of Europe and North America, economic regionalism in East Asia started as an autonomous and uninstitutionalized process of rapidly rising intraregional trade and FDI flows, driven by market forces and economic imperatives. Over time, this process gradually involved a new dimension of increasingly institutionalized regional economic cooperation between states in the region, particularly in the wake of the 1997 -98 Asian financial crisis, in response to the changing conditions at the global, regional and national levels brought about by globalization. However, despite such development, Cai demonstrates how a true regional grouping of East Asian states is still far from being formed.

  • "While major theories of economic regionalism in the existing literature are primarily constructed to explore institutionalized regional integration, European integration in particular, the analytical framework developed in this work explains the unique process and pattern of regional integration in East Asia. Economic regionalism has taken a different path in East Asia. In contrast to the government-engineered and highly institutionalized regionalism of Europe and North America, economic regionalism in East Asia started as an autonomous and uninstitutionalized process of rapidly rising intraregional trade and FDI flows, driven by market forces and economic imperatives. Over time, this process gradually involved a new dimension of increasingly institutionalized regional economic cooperation between states in the region, particularly in the wake of the 1997- -98 Asian financial crisis, in response to the changing conditions at the global, regional and national levels brought about by globalization. However, despite such development, Cai demonstrates how a true regional grouping of East Asian states is still far from being formed."
  • "'Theoretically sophisticated and empirically rich, this is an excellent introduction to what is becoming the world's most important economic region.' - Mark Beeson, Professor in International Politics and Head of Department, Department of Political Science& International Studies, University of Birmingham, UK 'Artfully tracing the evolution of economic regionalism in East Asia, Kevin G. Cai identifies its distinguishing features and differences from the Western European and North American experiences. This book will win lavish praise from both specialists on Asia and general readers. It is a gem.' - James H. Mittelman, University Professor, School of International Service, American University, USA, and author of Hyperconflict: Globalization and Insecurity (2010)."
