From Community to Compliance?: The Evolution of Monitoring Obligations in ASEAN

Description: From Community to Compliance? by Simon Chesterman The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) was, for much of its history, little more than a talk-shop. This book examines efforts to make it a serious regional organisation and will be of interest to those working in Asian studies, political science, international relations, international law, and economic integration. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description In the past decade, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) has transformed from a periodic meeting of ministers to setting ambitious goals of becoming a Community by 2015. ASEAN is now the most important regional organisation in the history of the continent of Asia. An important tension in this transformation is the question of whether the ASEAN way - defined by consultation and consensus, rather than enforceable obligations - is consistent with the establishment of a community governed by law. This book examines the growing interest in following through on international commitments, in particular monitoring implementation and compliance. Key barriers remain, in particular the lack of resources and ongoing resistance to accepting binding obligations. It remains to be seen whether these trends herald a more measured approach to decision-making in ASEAN. Written for practitioners and researchers alike, this important book provides the first systematic survey of monitoring within ASEAN. Author Biography Simon Chesterman is Dean of the National University of Singapore Faculty of Law, Editor of the Asian Journal of International Law, and Secretary-General of the Asian Society of International Law. His work has opened up new areas of research on conceptions of public authority, including the rules and institutions of global governance, state-building and post-conflict reconstruction, and the changing role of intelligence agencies. This is his fourteenth book. Table of Contents General editors preface; List of figures; Acknowledgments; Introduction; 1. ASEANs approach to monitoring; 2. The purposes of monitoring; 3.
