The ASEAN Community
This report, the first in the ASEAN Studies Centre report series, begins with a brief account of the important points raised during the discussions made at the workshop on "The ASEAN Community: Unblocking the Roadblocks," organized by the ASEAN Studies Centre and the Regional Economic Studies Programme on 15 April 2008.

The ASEAN Economic Community
This is an important and timely volume: important because ASEAN is an increasingly significant and influential regional and global actor; and timely because, as the 2015 ASEAN Economic Community target approaches, what is needed is a sympathetic yet arms-length survey of the issues and challenges. ASEAN will miss some of the targets laid out in its AEC Blueprint, but the reader is left in no doubt that the ASEAN spirit is alive and well. The editors include a distinguished former Secretary General of ASEAN and the leading academic analyst of ASEAN economic cooperation. They and their co-editors are to be congratulated for soliciting contributions from an outstanding and diverse group of authors, and then adding their highly authoritative commentary and analysis. A must read for anybody seriously interested in ASEAN.

International Economic Dispute Settlement
"Over the past 30 years, international trade has grown constantly and since 2008 it has increased by 26% (World Trade Organization 2019). In the same period of time foreign direct investment (FDI) grew more than 20% before 2000, 8 % in 2000-2007, and has shown slow growth since 2008, averaging about 1% growth per year for a decade (UNCTAD 2019b, p. xi).1 What we have also observed (but we lack systematic data) is a spectacular growth of trade in parts and components and a substantial increase of trade in services, reflecting companies' investment and sourcing decisions increasing the web of global and regional supply chains. The "death of distance" through lower transport costs and advancements in information technology has contributed to accelerating these developments"--

Research Handbook on Foreign Direct Investment
Increasing international investment, the proliferation of international investment agreements, domestic legislation, and investor-State contracts have contributed to the development of a new field of international law that defines obligations between host states and foreign investors with investor-State dispute settlement.
