AI-generated Abstract

This chapter examines the interplay between economic integration and security dynamics in East Asia since the 1980s, highlighting how geopolitical relationships influence domestic political strategies and trade networks. The authors argue that existing theoretical frameworks (liberal, constructivist, and realist) inadequately capture these complexities, suggesting a more nuanced approach that considers the feedback loops between domestic social groups, economic relations, and security considerations. Ultimately, understanding these interactions is crucial for predicting the future trajectory of East Asian integration amid evolving geopolitical tensions.
