Reviews
"The book provides a clear and wide-ranging picture of the history and structure of Southeast Asian studies in China. It might also be regarded as a companion volume to Southeast Asian Studies: Debates and New Directions (ISEAS, 2006), edited by Cynthia Chou and Vincent Houben" (Aseasuk News).
About the publication
This book, a project of the ASEAN-China Study Programme of ISEAS, is designed to promote a better understanding between the people of the two regions as China continues to exert a dominant political and economic presence in Southeast Asia. Needless to say, scholars and academics from both sides have a significant role to play in terms of creating greater awareness of each other through research, workshops, and conferences. Whilst many universities and research institutes in the ASEAN region are conducting studies on various aspects of China, it is equally important for the Chinese counterparts to be fully engaged in Southeast Asian Studies in order to deepen their knowledge of the region for mutual benefit. The book traces the development of Southeast Asian Studies in China, discusses the current status of these studies, examines the problems encountered in the pursuit of these studies, and attempts to evaluate their prospects in the years ahead.
