Northeast Asia’s regional cooperation is abysmal. Although China, South Korea, andJapan have generally compartmentalized bilateral trade relations in order to ensurecontinuing prosperity of their respective economies, regionally institutionalizedcooperation remains weak, even in this domain. Trilateral political and securitycooperation among these states is virtually nonexistent. China’s disinclination (asan emerging regional hegemon) toward regional cooperation and Japan’s failureto settle its historical problems are regarded as the key reasons for the lack ofsuch a development. Yet despite this fraught situation the prospects for regionalcooperation among the three main Northeast Asian powers have seen glimmers ofhope. This paper argues that security is surprisingly one of the areas where scholarsand practitioners envision a foundation for increased opportunities for regionalcooperation. The most noteworthy case is the ongoing coordination amongChina, Japan, and South Korea (along with some others) to fight piracy in theGulf of Aden area. Beyond the result of reducing piracy on commercial shipping,the counter-piracy effort has fostered cultural exchange among the region’s differentnavies and coastguards, offering opportunities for growing the spectrum of maritimesecurity expertise beyond what each country would be able to do alone. Thispaper looks at the implications of this combined effort for other potential areas ofcooperation among the Northeast Asian states.
Abstract
Northeast Asia’s regional cooperation is abysmal. Although China, South Korea, andJapan have generally compartmentalized bilateral trade relations in order to ensurecontinuing prosperity of their respective economies, regionally institutionalizedcooperation remains weak, even in this domain. Trilateral political and securitycooperation among these states is virtually nonexistent. China’s disinclination (asan emerging regional hegemon) toward regional cooperation and Japan’s failureto settle its historical problems are regarded as the key reasons for the lack ofsuch a development. Yet despite this fraught situation the prospects for regionalcooperation among the three main Northeast Asian powers have seen glimmers ofhope. This paper argues that security is surprisingly one of the areas where scholarsand practitioners envision a foundation for increased opportunities for regionalcooperation. The most noteworthy case is the ongoing coordination amongChina, Japan, and South Korea (along with some others) to fight piracy in theGulf of Aden area. Beyond the result of reducing piracy on commercial shipping,the counter-piracy effort has fostered cultural exchange among the region’s differentnavies and coastguards, offering opportunities for growing the spectrum of maritimesecurity expertise beyond what each country would be able to do alone. Thispaper looks at the implications of this combined effort for other potential areas ofcooperation among the Northeast Asian states.
