Strong elites who are committed to a supranational identity are a minimum requirement of successful regionalism. Regional leaders are increasingly seen as a new set of leaders in Europe. Currently, Asian regional leaders largely come from the diplomacy community, or trade and economic sectors. Yet further regionalisation demands a new type of leadership from civil society and citizens. In this context, it is important to cultivate new regional leadership through the development of regional citizenship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eContested Ideas of Regionalism in Asia\u003c\/em\u003e examines contested ideas of regionalism in Asia with a particular focus on two competing ideas: pan-Asianism and Pacificism. It also identifies a new trend and contestation, the fundamental shift from a civilisation understanding of regionalism to a technocratic and functional understanding of regionalism in the form of regulatory regionalism. The book also explores other contested imaginations of regionalism in Asia, including elitist versus participatory approaches to regionalism, and democracy-centric versus nationalism-centric approaches to regionalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47605268054252,"sku":"9781138604674","price":109.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781138604674-contested-ideas-of-regionalism-in-asia.jpg?v=1778129916"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/baogang-he.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
