Can ASEAN Navigate The Geopolitics Of A Multipolar Era?

Can ASEAN Navigate The Geopolitics Of A Multipolar Era?

We are living in the Asian century, with the meteoric rise of China, India and ASEAN economies heralding the era of multi-polar geopolitics. Is this an era of optimism for the international order, or is it as some say the most dangerous time in geopolitics since the end of the Cold War? We discuss these themes with Professor Kishore Mahbubani, a distinguished fellow at the Asia Research Institute at the National University of Singapore. His latest book is, “Living the Asian Century: An Undiplomatic Memoir."
