註釋This book examines the various steps that ASEAN has taken towards economic cooperation within the region and examines them in the context of the developing legal framework as affected by economic and political developments. Also dealt with are the various mechanisms for dispute resolution available in intra-ASEAN economic relations. In international law, a hierarchy of legal frameworks exists, and regional frameworks must accord with broader, multilateral frameworks of which participants are also members. This book therefore examines how ASEAN fits within the existing multilateral international framework for trade and investment. Further to this, the author analyzes on the one hand, the role of the sub-regional "Growth Triangles" in this emerging legal framework, and on the other hand, the movements towards broader economic cooperation in the larger region, like the proposals for the East Asian Economic Caucus (EAEC) and for the Asian Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum.
