“…A good example of complex engagement at work is the socialization of both ASEAN and China, which became the springboard for the establishment of the APT (Ba 2006). The end of the Cold War was a period of transition for East and Southeast Asia: it shifted attention to East Asia's export-oriented economic dynamism, lifted Cold War divisions, highlighted concerns over US withdrawal from the region, and necessitated the need for cooperative security arrangements to supplement the hub and spokes system (Cook 2008). In spite of the uncertainty in the immediate post-Cold War period, ASEAN and China managed to get involved multilaterally and bilaterally.…”

“…While the APT was a response to the financial crisis in 1997, the EAS was a reaction to the rise of China (Cook 2008). The origins of the EAS were first raised in a report of the East Asia Vision Group, which was submitted to the summit meeting of the APT in 2001.…”

“…In so doing, China insisted that only states could participate in the APT. By implication, Hong Kong and Taiwan could not be members (Cook 2008). Meanwhile, Japan pushed for the expansion of the EAS' membership to include Australia, New Zealand, and India.…”

A Multiplicity of Regionalisms in Southeast Asia

Regional arrangements in Southeast Asia (SEA) beg the question of why this “alphabet soup” exists. This can be addressed by looking at a wider context: these regionalisms are not merely SEA states’ responses to international events, nor are they solely projections of independence/self-assertion. Instead, SEA’s ventures demonstrate Constructivist logic: Southeast Asian states shape and are themselves shaped by the historical and geographical circumstances in which they find themselves. Beginning with the assumption that international relations are fluid and mutually constitutive, SEA regionalisms can be explained by complex engagement, as seen in the evolution of ASEAN and the dynamics of the APT and the EAS. In short, this paper argues that the multiplicity of regionalisms in Southeast Asia is a reflection of Constructivism at work.

“…There was a perennial danger that China could retaliate against the high-visibility US strategic manoeuvre in its backyard through punitive economic means. China could potentially restrict market access for American companies and become less cooperative on global economic governance reforms (Manyin et al 174 For a discussion of the pros and cons of bringing the US into the EAS, see Cook (2008). 175 In addition to trade, the interwoven relationship in finance was framed as 'balance of financial terror' by former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers (2004).…”

CHAPTER IAdministration underscoring the impossibility of a US return to the TPP, the remaining 11 signatories moved on to sign a renamed and surgically trimmed-down Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) without the US in March 2018 in the Chilean capital of Santiago. A total of 22 (relatively minor) provisions from the original TPP agreement (New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade 2018b) will not have effect on the CPTPP parties (but they could be reinstated at a later date) 9 . The CPTPP can be provisionally applied 9 The following changes are made to the CPTPP. 1) Article 3 of Annex 26A is suspended. The provision that would have required national pharmaceutical management agencies to make administrative changes to primarily benefit the pharmaceutical industry has been suspended.2) In the Investment chapter, six articles and Annex 9-L are suspended, curbing businesses' ability to sue government for investment contract breaches. 3) Article 11.2.2(b), the phrase 'Article 9.6 (Minimum Standard of Treatment)' and Annex 11-E are suspended. 4) Article 18.63 is suspended, meaning countries will no longer be required to extend the term of protection for copyright from 50 years to 70 years. 5) and 6) Articles 18.50 and 18.51 are suspended. There are no data or market protection obligations for new medicines, including biologics. 7) Article 18.37 paragraph 2 and the last sentence of Article 18.37.4 are suspended to afford more flexibility around what is patentable. 8) and 9) Articles 18.46 and 18.48 are suspended. CPTPP countries will not have to change their laws to enable people to apply for an extension of the term of a patent following unreasonable delays. 10) Article 15.8.5 is suspended. The suspension means government are not legally required to promote compliance with international labour rights as part of their procurement processes. 11) Article 15.24.2 phrase 'No later than three years after the date of entry into force of this Agreement' is suspended, meaning further negotiations to expand government procurement coverage will be delayed. 12) and 13) Article 18.68 and Article 18.69 are suspended. Countries will not have to provide more extensive protection to 'technological protection measures' and 'rights management information'. 14) Article 18.82, Annex 18-E and Annex 18-F are suspended. Countries retain the right to adjust rules for liability of internet service providers for on-line copyright infringement. 15) Article 18.79 is suspended, meaning countries will not have to provide more extensive protection for encrypted programme-carrying satellite and cable programme signals. 16) Article 20.17.5 phrase 'or another applicable law' is suspended. The suspended language would have required countries to act to address violations to the wildlife trafficking laws of countries that were not party to the CPTPP. 17) Article 5.7.1(f) second sentence is suspended. CPTPP countries retain the right to regulate and review customs duties for express shipments. 18) Articl...
