For decades, ASEAN has largely taken a neoliberal approach to regional economic security, grounded in the belief that economic cooperation and integration among its member states would help ensure peace and stability, while also promoting prosperity for its people.

More recently, it has been strained by the longer-term economic repercussions of the conflict in the Middle East. Against this backdrop, a key question emerges. Does ASEAN's longstanding economic security paradigm remain fit for purpose?

In this episode of Policy Unpacked, join expert panel, Dr. Denis Hew, Senior Research Fellows at the Centre on Asia and Globalisation, Dr. Su-Hyun Lee, Senior Associate Fellow at the Centre for Multilateralism Studies and Deputy Head of Graduate Studies at RSIS-NTU, Professor Mely Caballero-Anthony, Associate Dean (International Engagement) and Head of the Centre for Non-Traditional Security Studies, also at RSIS-NTU, and Dr Barbora Valockova, Research Fellow at the Centre on Asia and Globalisation (CAG) at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, as they explore how shifting geopolitical and geoeconomic dynamics are reshaping the economic landscape of the ASEAN region.
