Summary:

This book looks at major contemporary conflicts ℓ́ℓintra and interstateℓ́ℓ in Southeast Asia from a conflict management perspective. Starting with the view that the conventional ASEAN conflict-management methods have ceased to be effective, it looks for new conflict-management patterns and trends by investigating seven contemporary cases of conflict in the region. Focusing on the incompatibilities involved in each case and examining how they have been managedℓ́ℓwhether by integration, co-existence, elimination or maneuvering around the conflictℓ́ℓthe book sheds new light on the significance of managing conflict in achieving and maintaining the stability of the Southeast Asian region. It makes a significant theoretical contribution to the field of peace and conflict studies by proposing the concept of ℓ́ℓmediation regimeℓ́ℓ as the key to understanding current conflict management within ASEAN.
