First, the book focuses on the crucial discourse surrounding the Indo-Pacific region, including its challenges, continuity, and relevance. The discussion highlights the growing influence of regional actors such as India, Thailand, Japan, and the US, particularly in the context of a pressing question of collaboration versus containment amidst Chinas rise. The book delves into various topics, such as geopolitical anxieties, economic strength, foreign policy, international relations, development, and security promotion in South and Southeast Asia, through the lenses of ASEAN centrality and the Indo-Pacific strategy. Second, the volume emphasizes on the escalating tensions and the worsening crises in the region that cause major anxieties and the subsequent realignment and new alignment of countries relationships. Among several chapters of the volume, a large Indo-China state, Myanmar, takes a special place in the books discussions as it has grown as an important ground for a resource/energy race among geopolitically strategic partners. Additionally, Myanmar has the potential to become a balancer in ASEAN. Therefore, any positive development and change in course of relations to Myanmar, particularly with its neighbors, Japan, and Russia, in both historical and contemporary contexts, can have a significant impact not only on Myanmars course towards peace, democracy, and security, but also regional stability. The editors and contributors examine the unique position of ASEAN, with a focus on ASEAN centrality as a platform for addressing anxieties and building relationships to bridge the gap between world and regional players, including both friends and foes. Overall, the volume provides valuable insights into the Indo-Pacific regions complex dynamics, including cooperation and collaboration among regional actors for long-term stability and prosperity. The interdisciplinary composition of the book invites readers from various backgrounds to engage with constructive debates on general perception, contextual discussion, and the highlights of engaged research from local and international perspectives. 001481257 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed October 13, 2023). 001481257 61020 $$aASEAN$$1https://isni.org/isni/0000000121770221 001481257 650_0 $$aGeopolitics$$zIndo-Pacific Region.$$zChina$$0(DLC)sh2009125838 001481257 651_0 $$aIndo-Pacific Region$$xForeign relations. 001481257 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001481257 7001_ $$aSudō, Sueo. 001481257 7001_ $$aYamahata, Chosein. 001481257 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aSudo, Sueo$$tASEAN and Regional Actors in the Indo-Pacific$$dSingapore : Springer,c2023$$z9789819940196 001481257 852__ $$bebk 001481257 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-99-4020-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001481257 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1481257$$pGLOBAL_SET 001481257 980__ $$aBIB 001481257 980__ $$aEBOOK 001481257 982__ $$aEbook 001481257 983__ $$aOnline 001481257 994__ $$a92$$bISE
