Long seen as an arena for superpower rivalry, Southeast Asia is increasingly coming into its own by locating itself at the forefront of regional integration initiatives that involve not only the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, but major external powers such as the United States, China, India, Japan, and Australia as well. At the same time, the past two decades has seen the revival of old animosities as well as the emergence of new security challenges confronting the region. Old animosities include unresolved territorial disputes, while new challenges range from regional and global financial crises, terrorism, and pandemics. Significant changes within the ten Southeast Asian countries covered in this book have also transpired that have affected not only the complexion of domestic politics, but have also impacted regional diplomacy as well, such as the creation of potentially the eleventh "Southeast Asian" country - Timor Leste. Extensively updated and revised in light of these changes and developments, this fourth edition of Dictionary of the Modern Politics of Southeast Asia contains profiles of each Southeast Asian country. Following this, it provides more than 450 alphabetically arranged individual entries providing detailed accounts and analyses on major episodes and treaties, political parties and institutions, civil society movements, and regional and international organizations"-- Southeast Asia -- Politics and government -- 1945- -- Dictionaries. 46759 Politics and government 46760 Southeast Asia. 46761 0049 สำนักการศึกษาทั่วไป 132 Leifer, Michael 46758 BK 821836 benjamad 821836 821836 0 0 lcc 0 0 BKE PIMLIB PIMLIB GEN-EN 2016-06-17 ศูนย์หนังสือธรรมศาสตร์ 2466.00 0130000040938 1 DS526.7 .L567 2015 32550000237611 2023-05-09 2466.00 2023-05-09 BK
