Abstract

The literature has been divided as regards assessing the record of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) with respect to dealing with interstate disputes between and intrastate armed conflict within member states. Until the 2000s, ASEAN states in practice did not opt to take on a formal corporate role to manage and settle bilateral disputes between members and also did not seek such a role in relation to violent ethnic or other political conflict occurring within the boundaries of fellow members. This chapter explores whether since the adoption of the ASEAN Charter the grouping’s dispute and conflict management norms and practices have evolved. In this regard, the chapter reviews ASEAN’s stated consensus. It also examines how ASEAN addressed the 2008-2011 Thailand-Cambodia border conflict, and how ASEAN responded between February and October 2021 to the most recent military takeover and subsequent violence in Myanmar.
