Academic and accepted orthodoxy maintains that Southeast Asia, and Asia generally, is evolving into a distinctive East Asian regional order. This book questions this claim and reveals instead uncertainty and incoherence at the heart of ASEAN, the region’s foremost institution.

The Contradictions in the Political Economy of East Asian Regionalism 5. A Delusion Transformed: ASEAN and East Asian Regionalism 6. Constructing and Deconstructing Regions: Australia’s Engagement with ‘Asia’ 7. Political Illiberalism and the War on Terrorism in Southeast Asia: The Delusions of the Surveillance State Conclusion: It’s No Fun at the ASEAN Bibliography Index
