Description: "This book is a comprehensive analysis of the elements of disparity among the various countries in East Asia that stand in the way of regional cooperation and the formation of an Asia-Pacific community. By taking a close look at these substantive issues and elements, the various contributors - comprising both experienced practitioners and academics - help readers relate to issues concerning East Asian regionalism, such as the ASEAN-China free trade area (FTA), as well as the FTA between ASEAN and Japan. It also examines other bilateral efforts currently undertaken by many East Asian countries."--BOOK JACKET.
