Abstract
Two families of ideas — which might be loosely labelled ‘power’ and ‘community’ — constantly vie for centre-stage in commentary on SEA’s international relations. Rarely does one family pull off an appearance in regional narratives without the intrusion, in some shape or form, of its contrasting ‘other’. It is not surprising, then, that different theoretical discourses have assessed this mutual haunting in radically different ways and have struggled, both descriptively and prescriptively, to accommodate it.
