Book Description: The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) is one of the most important regional organizations in the Asia Pacific, and indeed, the world. Formed in 1967, during a period of political turmoil in Southeast Asia, it has grown in strength and stature, and has expanded from its original five members (Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand) to include Brunei Darussalam and Vietnam. ASEAN countries are now among the fastest growing economies in the world and some are poised to join Singapore as Newly Industrializing Countries of Asia. This book presents a systematic analysis of the process of economic development and regional co operation in ASEAN. It discusses the evolution of ASEAN, from its establishment as a regional organization, designed to promote political stability in Southeast Asia through consultation and negotiation, to its increasing role in world trade and in accelerating economic development through the expansion of intra regional trade. This book will be of interest to university students and teachers in the fields of development economics and Asian studies. A computer aided teaching package is available to those who wish to use this book in university courses. Those in government and business will also find this book useful as it presents a comprehensive account of economic development and co operation in ASEAN.
