Features: This book employs the structural analysis method in international political economy to systematically examine and analyze the nature, impact, and role of regionalism in the Asia-Pacific. Drawing on Susan Strange's proposed "structural analysis of international political economy," the book focuses on discussions regarding the definitions of "region" and "regionalism" in international relations, the relationship between new regionalism and globalism and nationalism, the relationship between new regionalism in the Asia-Pacific and old regionalism, changes and interactions among the four major structures in the Asia-Pacific region, and future development models of new regionalism in the Asia-Pacific. It puts forward a series of distinctive ideas and perspectives. These contributions have laid a solid foundation for further research on new regionalism in the field of international relations in China and have become one of the pioneering achievements in the study of new regionalism within China's academic community of international studies.
