- 研究成果概要
- The state plays a very important part in regional cooperation and integration. Yet, its influences are rarely examined beyond the classic assumption of mature nation-states. This seriously impedes our understandings of the state’s role in non-European regional integration.
To deal with such a problem, this project tries to recast the state in a more general theoretical framework in order to make it applicable in comparative regional integration studies. More specifically, three conceptual schemes are proposed: (i) the state as a particular institutional site where different societal groups interacts; (ii) the state as a special political process through which the state structure is being built and transformed; and (iii) the state as a distinctive set of practices which embody the meanings and values of the state. Following these conceptual schemes, the roles of the state in European and East Asian regionalisms are examined. In addition to theoretical analysis, fieldwork was conducted in relation to the state's role in East Asian regional cooperation.
The outcome of the project was presented at the Political Studies Association (UK)'s Annual Conference in Edinburgh.
