"This study aims to analyze the determinant factors that affect issues development within APEC, map out those issues during the period 1993-2010, and show the relation of those issues with the APEC Summit Agenda 2013 in Indonesia. The analysis is based on secondary data, literature review of APEC meeting documents, interviews, and focus group discussions. Some interesting findings suggest that, lirstly, issues development in APEC has been shaped by responses of APEC to opportunities and challenges related to economic, social, political and security conditions within APEC and the world. It is not only government agencies that are involved in issues development but other agents as well, such as the Pacific Economic Cooperation Council, the Association Southeast Asian Nations, the World Trade Organization, APEC Business Advisory Council, and APEC Study Centers Consortium. In the past and at present, the Eminent Persons Group and the Paciiic Business Forum, which were set up for a specific time by APEC, continue to play vital and influential roles. Secondly, this study iinds that there are four big groups involved in issues development in APEC. All issues are part of the development issues in APEC economies. Even though the issues are very broad, encompassing economic and non-economic matters, these are nonetheless focused on economic integration of APEC, with Bogor Goals being in the nucleus of issues. The development of the range of issues, which APEC has pursued to respond to challenges and opportunities in the APEC economies, is intended to support and secure economic integration. Thirdly, the Indonesian APEC Summit Agenda 2013 emphasized three specific agenda items: attaining the Bogor Goals, sustainable and inclusive growth, and connectivity. All these are inter-related issues of developments that have been discussed since the establishment of APEC."

"Penelitian ini mengkaji bagaimana bencana alam mempengaruhi ekspor APEC termasuk bagaimana kualitas kelembagaan (efektivitas pemerintah) berperan dalam kinerja ekspor setelah bencana alam melanda perekonomian APEC. Meskipun berbagai literatur telah mengidentifikasi isu-isu ini secara terpisah, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji isu-isu tersebut secara keseluruhan dengan mengeksplorasi hubungan antara ekspor, bencana alam dan kualitas kelembagaan. Analisis dalam tulisan ini didasarkan pada teori model gravitasi dengan menggunakan data ekspor, bencana alam dan indeks efektivitas pemerintah tahun 2003-2022. Secara keseluruhan, hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa bencana alam mempunyai hubungan negatif dengan kinerja ekspor dari APEC, baik pada saat bencana alam terjadi maupun pada tahun berikutnya. Dengan memiliki indeks efektivitas pemerintah di atas rata-rata APEC telah secara positif menangkal dampak negatif yang disebabkan oleh bencana alam, terutama ketika bencana dahsyat menimpa perekonomian tersebut. Hasil dari penelitian ini sangat relevan bagi perekonomian APEC yang rentan terhadap bencana alam, namun mereka tetap memerlukan pertumbuhan ekonomi terutama dari ekspor.

This paper examines how natural disasters affect exports of APEC economies including how institutional quality (government effectiveness) plays a role on the export flows after natural disasters hit the economies. While various literatures have identified these issues separately, this research would like to fill this gap by exploring the linkages between exports, natural disasters and institutional quality. The analysis in this paper is based on the gravity model theory which used exports, natural disasters and the government effectiveness index data from 2003-2022. Overall, the results show that natural disasters have a negative association with the export flows from APEC both at the time when natural disasters hit and at the following year. Having the government effectiveness index is above the APEC’s average has positively counteracted the negative effect caused by natural disasters, particularly when the devastating catastrophe hits the economies. The findings in this paper are relevant for APEC economies that are prone to experience natural disasters, but they need economic growth particularly from exports."

"Fenomena regionalisme ekonomi yang berlangsung di kawasan Asia-Pasifik pasca berakhirnya Perang Dingin memiliki karakteristik yang unik dan berbeda dibandingkan dengan regionalisme ekonomi yang terjadi di kawasan lainnya. Karakteristik utama dari regionalisme ekonomi di kawasan Asia-Pasifik adalah prinsip open regionalism. Pemahaman lebih lanjut mengenai fenomena regionalisme ekonomi di kawasan Asia-Pasifik dan prinsip open regionalism dapat ditelaah melalui eksistensi Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC). APEC merupakan pelopor kerangka kerja sama ekonomi regional antarnegara di kawasan Asia-Pasifik yang berfokus pada agenda liberalisasi perekonomian regional. Penulisan tinjauan literatur ini bertujuan untuk meneliti eksistensi APEC dalam dinamika regionalisme ekonomi di kawasan Asia-Pasifik melalui metode kronologi. Berdasarkan metode kronologi, penulisan tinjauan literatur ini membagi periodisasi perkembangan kajian literatur tentang APEC ke dalam tiga periode yang berbeda. Tiga periode perkembangan kajian literatur tentang APEC tersebut terbagi menjadi (1) Periode I (Formative Years, 1990-1994), (2) Periode II (Stagnation Years, 1995-2001), dan (3) Periode III (Adjustment Years, 2002-2009). Penulisan tinjauan literatur ini mengidentifikasi bahwa terdapat lima isu dominan yang berkaitan erat dengan eksistensi APEC dalam dinamika regionalisme ekonomi di kawasan Asia-Pasifik, antara lain isu kepemimpinan, isu pembentukan kerja sama, isu pembentukan institusi, isu integrasi regional, dan isu tata kelola regional. Penulisan tinjauan literatur ini juga mengamati bahwa dalam kondisi internasional dan regional Asia-Pasifik yang terkini, APEC mengalami peralihan fokus pada agenda kerja sama ekonomi regionalnya, yang pada awalnya berfokus pada agenda liberalisasi ekonomi regional menjadi agenda integrasi ekonomi regional.

The phenomenon of economic regionalism which occurs in the Asia-Pacific region after the end of the Cold War has unique and distinct characteristics compared to the economic regionalism that happens in other regions. The main characteristic of economic regionalism that takes place in the Asia-Pacific region is the principle of open regionalism. Further comprehension of the phenomenon of economic regionalism in the Asia-Pacific region and also the principle of open regionalism can be examined through the existence of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC). APEC is the pioneer of the framework of regional intergovernmental economic cooperation in the Asia-Pacific region which focuses on the agenda of regional economic liberalization. This literature review aims to examine the existence of APEC in the dynamics of economic regionalism in the Asia-Pacific region by applying the method of chronology.

Based on the application of the method of chronology, this literature review divides the periodization of the evolution of a series of relevant literature about APEC into three different periods. The periodization is divided into (1) Period I (Formative Years, 1990-1994), (2) Period II (Stagnation Years, 1995-2001), and (3) Period III (Adjustment Years, 2002-2009). This literature review identified that there are five dominant issues which are closely related to the existence of APEC in the dynamics of economic regionalism in the Asia-Pacific region, as follows: leadership, cooperation building, institution building, regional integration, and regional governance. This literature review also observed that, in the context of current international and regional circumstances that happens in the Asia-Pacific region, APEC has been experiencing a transition of its focus from the agenda of regional economic liberalization regional economic integration."
