This newly revised and updated ninth edition of Southeast Asia in the New International Era provides readers with contemporary coverage of a vibrant region home to more than 675 million people.
Sensitive to historical legacies and paying special attention to developments since the end of the Cold War, this book highlights the events, players, and institutions that shape the region politically and economically. The scope of analysis provides context-specific treatment of the region?s 11 countries: Thailand, Myanmar (Burma), Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Philippines, Indonesia, Timor-Leste, Malaysia, Singapore, and Brunei. Three thematic chapters consider broader regional issues: Southeast Asia Political Economy, ASEAN, and South China Sea. Fully updated, the book?s revised content includes new discussion of the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, Myanmar?s 2021 military coup, the return of the Marcos clan in the Philippines, political dynasty in Cambodia, youth demonstrations calling for monarchy reform in Thailand, Malaysia?s 2022 elections, and the relocation of Indonesia?s capital from sinking Jakarta to Borneo. New to this edition is a dedicated chapter explaining the territorial disputes in the South China Sea.
An excellent resource for students and professionals seeking to understand Southeast Asia, this book helps make sense of the region?s political complexity while building a solid foundation for further study.

John J. Brandon, The Asia Foundation, USA
"Authoritative, engaging, and rigorously comparative, this comprehensive text enables college students and general readers to gain a strong grasp of the political diversity, economic differences, and social complexity of the eleven countries of Southeast Asia." Pek Koon Heng, American University School of International Service, USA
"Exploring the current impact of transnational terrorism, globalization, economic volatility, and the region?s relations with great powers, this volume is an excellent choice for students, business people, and policymakers." ? Sheldon Simon, Arizona State University, USA
"A comprehensive and accessible introduction to the region for undergraduates. With clear coverage of politics, recent history, social institutions, and economic development, the text serves as a valuable complement to virtually any course on contemporary Asia. ? Steven Jug, Baylor University, USA

"One of the few broad, timely surveys of Southeast Asia now available, and it contains much historical and cultural perspective." ? Foreign Affairs

Robert Dayley?s Southeast Asia in the New International Era steps in to save the day [...] The book as a whole is highly readable, informative, and suitable for scholars looking to refresh, as well as those new to the study of Southeast Asia." - Margaret B. Bodemer, California Polytechnic State University, USA
