Abstract

How best to assess ASEAN as a collective enterprise are longstanding. Producing often polar assessments of the organization and its activities, the question has been a recurrent one in the scholarship on ASEAN and any retrospective on the organization. Stubbs’ (2019 Stubbs, R. (2019). ASEAN sceptics versus ASEAN proponents: Evaluating regional institutions. The Pacific Review, 1. online 21 May 2019. doi:10.1080/09512748.2019.1611627[Taylor & Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) article does not resolve the question, but it does offer ways to make sense of the debate. It also identifies ways forward with its identification of analytic criteria by which ASEAN’s performance as an international organization has been assessed. How well his two-camp categorization of the literature captures the state of play, however, can be debated. It is also not without potential costs.

摘要

长期以来，如何最好地评估东盟作为一个集体企业。这个问题经常产生对该组织及其活动的极地评估，这个问题在有关东盟的奖学金和对该组织的任何回顾中都是一个经常出现的问题。斯塔布斯（2019 Stubbs，R.（2019年）。东盟怀疑论者与东盟支持者：评估区域机构。太平洋评论，1。在线，2019年5月21日。doi：10.1080 / 09512748.2019.1611627 [Taylor＆Francis Online]，[Web of  Science® ] ，[Google Scholar]文章未解决问题，但确实提供了使辩论有意义的方法。它还通过确定分析标准来确定前进的方向，通过这些分析标准可以评估东盟作为国际组织的表现。但是，他的两阵营文学分类如何很好地把握了游戏的状态，这是有争议的。这也不是没有潜在的成本。
