Aspect Press Publishing House published a comprehensive collective monograph ASEAN on the Way of Integration: Achievements, Challenges, Dilemmas edited by Vladimir Mazyrin and Ekaterina Koldunova. The monograph starts with the foreword by the MGIMO Rector, Academician Anatoly Torkunov.
In the contemporary world ASEAN presents not only an example of a successful regional integration, but also an organizing force behind a wide-spread network of macro-regional multilateral institutions in the Asia Pacific. At the same time, the growing turbulence in the international relations, political, economic and socio-cultural transformations of the world pose a number of challenges to ASEAN. The authors undertook an effort to present a systemic analysis of these challenges and subsequent dilemmas.
The collective monograph contains chapters from the authors belonging to a wide range of research institutions, including Moscow State Institute of International Relations, Institute of China and Contemporary Asia, Higher School of Economics, Diplomatic Academy of the MFA of Russia, Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration, Institute for Demographic Research, Military University, and Valdai Discussion Club.
The monograph results from a long-term research work and a number of research seminars and conferences held in MGIMO and the Institute of China and Contemporary Asia. It will be interesting for students, IR and Regional Studies Scholars as well as for everyone interested in the present day of ASEAN development.
