South Asia
By: Ehito Kimura
 LEARNING GOALS:
At the end of the lesson, the learners
should be able to know:
1.how does the region is considered as
an OBJECT influenced by globalization;
2.how does the region is adjudged as a
SUBJECT pushing globalization forward;
and
3.how do we consider the region as an
ALTERNATIVE to globalization?

as a
Why would we
consider ASIA as an
emerging Global
Force?
-the center of gravity of the
global economy is shifting to
Asia; and
-play a larger role in global
economic leadership.
How regionalism
can benefit Asia?
-Regional cooperation, effectively
structured and implemented, is a
powerful new tool in Asia’s policy
arsenal.
-It can help Asia address regional
challenges as well as provide stronger
foundations for its global role.
How can we
achieve this?
COOPERATION
Yet the challenge of cooperation
should not be underestimated; it
will require trust, innovation,
and compromise—and, most
likely, time.
How Asian
regionalism can
benefit the world?
So long as Asia’s economies
continue to integrate not just with
each other, but also with the rest of
the world, sustained Asian
dynamism, strengthened by regional
cooperation, could bolster Asia’s role
as a new and stabilizing engine of
global economic growth.
Framework:
Part I: Externalist view illustrating the way
in which the region has been affected by
globalization.
Part II: Generative view showing how the
region is an active agent pushing the
process of globalization forward.
Part III: A perspective view showing how
the region can be understood as posing an
alternative to globalization.

AN EXTERNALIST VIEW
OF GLOBALIZATION
 Globalization
•a process that transforms the Asia
Pacific and South Asia.
•a force for good bringing economic
development, political progress, and
social and cultural diversity to the
region.
Portuguese - Melaka in 1511
Spaniards –Philippines-1521
Dutch – East Indies -17th century
British -South Asia, Burma and the Malay peninsula
French -Indo-China -19th century
A. Economy
 Opening to world market
 increasing globalized economic system and benefitted from export
oriented growth policies
 Southeast Asian ‘tigers’
 close ties between the state and business elite
 autonomous decision-making structure
 rise of manufacturing
B. Politics
• substantial fall in authoritarian regimes with a corresponding rise in
democratic regimes. This has been attributed to a number of factors
including rising middle classes, a more globally connected world, and the
end of the Cold War (Huntington, 1991).
C.CULTURE
 globalization is a form of cultural Westernization summed up in the term
‘McWorld’ , MTV-ization’ or ‘Hollywoodization
(Barber, 2003, Banks, 1997).

 Asian Region as an

Asia is a source of resistance to

GLOBALIZATION

 Examples

EAST ASIAN CO-PROSPERITY SPHERE

(1930s-
1940s)
“ASIA for
Japan, ASIATICS”
Manchukuo, Outer Mongolia, China, Burma,
Philippines, Vietnam, Kampuchea, Laos, Thailand as
members of the Sphere (Beasley, 2000 as cited by Kimura, 2014)
 Examples

“ASIAN VALUES”
(Mid to late 1990s)
“Asia has culturally distinct characteristics that make it
different from Western liberal democracies”(Kimura, 2014
citing Mohamed Mahathir)

In a democratic framework, the Asian way is reaching

consensus on national goals, which is in contrast with the
Western values where every individual can do what he
likes… (Langlois, 2001 as cited by Kimura, 2014)
 Examples

“ASIAN VALUES”
(Mid to late 1990s)
“Asians tend to respect authority, hard work, thrift, and
emphasize community over the individual”(Kimura, 2014)

“Concepts such as individual rights, political liberalism, and

democracy are Western concepts, antithetical to the Asian
tradition”(Kimura, 2014)
 Examples

ARRANGEMENTS”

ASEAN + 3 = ASEAN, China,

Japan, Korea

ASEAN + 3 SECOND JOINT STATEMENT ON EAST ASIA
COOPERATION of 2007 (Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan, n.d.)
“Plus Three Process would remain as the main vehicle towards the
long-term goal of building an East Asian community, with ASEAN as
the driving force
“…The future scope of ASEAN Plus Three cooperation would
include, but not be limited to, the following areas: (1) Political and
Security Cooperation; (2) Economic and Financial Cooperation; (3)
Energy, Environment, Climate Change and Sustainable
Development Cooperation; (4) Socio-cultural and Development
Cooperation; and, (5) establish an ASEAN Plus Three Cooperation
Fund”

“ASIAN REGIONAL
ARRANGEMENTS”

Jemaah Islamiyah
(JI)
 Examples
JEMAAH ISLAMIYAH (Islamic Congregation)

“Alleged goal… is to create an Islamic state in Indonesia followed by

a pan-Islamic caliphate incorporating Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei,
and the Southern Philippines” (ICG, 2002b as cited by Kimura,
2014)

“…JI articulated an alternative vision of political and social

organization in the region, one that clashes directly with the
paradigm of globalization” (ICG, 2002b as cited by Kimura, 2014)
 Examples

“EMERGING LOCAL
MOVEMENTS”
Santi Suk in Thailand
“…Created (2009)
their own currency, bia [loosely translated
as merit],
and operates through a ‘central bank’ located within the village
(Hookway, 2009 as cited by Kimura, 2014)

“The currency can be used to purchase various commodities but

cannot be used outside of participating villages and cannot be
exchanged for Thailand baht” (Kimura, 2014)
 Examples

“EMERGING LOCAL
MOVEMENTS”
Lok Samiti in India
“…Advocates local village level education and development and
campaigns against the Coca Cola bottling plant in Mehdiganj”
(Kimura, 2014 citing Lok Samiti)
