ABSTRACT

ASEAN‘s military cooperation is the focus of this article. Based on the establishment of the ADMM in 2006 and the ADMM-Plus in 2010, ASEAN is playing an active role in military cooperation, while rapidly developing internal and external military cooperation. Considering that ASEAN has rejected institutional-level security cooperation since its establishment, cooperation in the military sector has become a major turning point in the development of ASEAN. Therefore, this article examines the cases and trends of ASEAN's military cooperation in the 2010s, focusing on ADMM and ADMM-Plus, and analyzes the causes of ASEAN’s development of military cooperation during this period in structural, institutional, and policy dimensions. The expansion of ASEAN’s military cooperation activities is the result of complex interactions among diverse factors, so comprehensive understanding of the causes requires the examination of changes in structure, institution, and policy and the analysis of their interactions. ASEAN is expected to expand military cooperation in the future to secure regional autonomy based on a conclusion that the core pursuit of ASEAN in the midst of the emerging changes is “ASEAN centrality.”
