"The inauguration of the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM) in Bangkok in 1996 was celebrated with enthusiasm and hopes in the two regions because this forum represented a breakthrough in Asia-Europe relations. The region-to-region pattern of the relations becomes the study framework that enables the explorations of central themes which include the Asian regional identity, ASEAN collective diplomatic prominence, and the informality of the ASEM institution. In exploring those central themes, this boo...."

""Amitav Acharya has written a splendidly ambitious book. Travelling from the discipline of International Relations to the historiography of Southeast Asia and back again, it draws upon a range of methodologies to analyse the issue of identity in the configuration of Southeast Asia. But it provides more than an academic assessment. With this book, Acharya must be judged to have contributed not just to the study of Southeast Asian regionalism, but to the process itself." - Anthony Milner, Basham Professor of Asian History, Australian National University"

"In 2012, Russia assumes the Chairmanship of APEC, and is keen to build on its memberships of both the East Asia Summit (EAS) and the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM). Russia is geographically and historically part of Asia and the Asia Pacific, and has been a dialogue partner of ASEAN since 1996. Still, the obstacles of distance and languages have led ASEAN member states and Russia to know and interact little between both sides. As growth poles in the world economy, there is much benefit in greater interaction between their rich economies."

"This thesis examines the normalization of China-Indonesia?s diplomatic relations in order to understand China?s main motivation. The ?micro-macro linkage? approach is used to uphold the empirical evidence that is enhanced by the mianzi concept. In Chinese culture, mianzi consists of honourable values and meanings. The result of this research shows that the changes in China?s foreign policy priority have been caused by the demise of the socialist power in the late 1980s and the Tiananmen incident in 1989. Threat to China?s sovereignty and unity has been the basis of the priority to keep the country?s honour and existence. The term baoquan mianzi is used in this matter. It means using the whole potential of the Chinese people to defend the country?s honour. The People's Republic of China?s international image and glory need to be restored. The normalization of diplomatic relations has proven to be part of baoquan mianzi effort and has given China a big opportunity to participate in regional and global forums."

"Towards the end of the nineteenth century the British empire was confronted by two great Chinese questions. The first of these questions (often known as the Far Eastern question to contemporaries) related specifically to the maintenance of British interests on the China coast and the broader implications for British foreign policy in East Asia. While safeguarding British interests in the Far East presented British policymakers with a range of significant challenges, as they wrestled with this first Chinese question, another kept knocking at the door. Since the eighteenth century, when plans for the establishment of a British colony at New South Wales had begun to materialize, Australias potential relations with China had attracted considerable interest. During the first sixty years of European settlement, China retained a prominent place in both metropolitan and colonial schemes for the development of British Australia. From the 1850s, however, when large numbers of Cantonese miners travelled to the Pacific gold rushes, these earlier visions began to appear hopelessly naive. By the late 1880s the coming of the Chinese to Australia, and the reaction to their arrival, had developed into one of the most difficult issues within British imperial affairs. This book sets out to tell that story. Reaching back to the arrival of the British in the 1780s, it explores the early history of Australian engagement with China and traces the development of colonial Australia into an important point of contact between the British and Chinese empires."

"Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh putusnya hubungan diplomatik Republik Sudan dengan Republik Islam Iran 2014-2016. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengungkapkan faktor-faktor yang melatarbelakangi Sudan mengubah kebijakan luar negerinya terhadap Iran, dari yang menjalin kerjasama diplomatik, kemudian memutuskan hubungan diplomatiknya secara sepihak. Tesis ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif yang bersifat deskriptif analitis dengan teknik wawancara sebagai data primer dan teknik pengumpulan data sekunder berupa kajian pustaka. Sementara untuk metode analisis data menggunakan metode flow chart analysis dengan mereduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Dalam proses penelitian, data dan fakta yang diperoleh kemudian dianalisis menggunakan konsep Sistem Internasional dan kerangka teori Realisme Neoklasik, dapat disimpulkan bahwa perubahan kebijakan luar negeri Sudan yang akhirnya memutuskan hubungan diplomatiknya dengan Iran dilatarbelakangi oleh dua faktor utama, yaitu intervention variables atau faktor internal yang dalam hal ini berupa kondisi ekonomi yang memburuk, hilangnya cadangan minyak, dinamika sosial, dan peran sentral militer. Faktor selanjutnya yaitu independent variable berupa kebijakan luar negeri Sudan terhadap regional dan internasional, dominasi Arab Saudi di regional yang terancam, serta pemberian sanksi, embargo ekonomi dan label negara pendukung terorisme Amerika Serikat kepada Sudan.

This research is motivated by the severance of diplomatic relations between the Republic of the Sudan and the Islamic Republic of Iran 2014-2016. The purpose of this research is to reveal the factors behind Sudan changing its foreign policy towards Iran, from establishing diplomatic cooperation, then breaking diplomatic relations unilaterally. This thesis uses a descriptive analytical qualitative research method with interview techniques as primary data and secondary data collection techniques in the form of literature review. Meanwhile, the data analysis method uses a flow chart analysis method by reducing data, presenting data, and drawing conclusions. In the research process, the data and facts obtained are then analyzed using the concept of the International System and the theoretical framework of Neoclassical Realism, it can be concluded that Sudan's foreign policy changes that finally severed its diplomatic relations with Iran were motivated by two main factors, namely intervention variables or internal factors in this case in the form of deteriorating economic conditions, loss of oil reserves, social dynamics, and the central role of the military. The next factor is the independent variable in the form of Sudan's foreign policy towards the region and internationally, the threatened dominance of Saudi Arabia in the region, as well as sanctions, economic embargoes and labeling of the United States as a state sponsor of terrorism to Sudan.

"The central puzzle in the study of Japanese foreign policy has been why Japan has continued to play a passive role in international affairs, despite its impressive economic and political power. Challenging this central puzzle, the core argument of this study is to present an alternative path for the study of Japanese foreign policy. In fact, in recent years Japanese foreign policy has become less dependent on the United States, more strategic towards Asia, and more energetic towards international."

"The argument here is that, although Indonesia would appear to be the natural leader in Southeast Asia, it has been singularly unsuccessful in putting its stamp on ASEAN. If anything, ASEAN has been put on Indonesia’s bebas dan aktif (independent and active) foreign policy stamp through Indonesia’s deference to self-constructed obligations to ASEAN solidarity and consensus."
