Describe Today, relations between the countries of Northeast Asia (the Koreas, Japan, PRC) exhibit similar characteristics of dispute and distrust as once existed in Southeast Asia.

1. Full question: Today, relations between the countries of Northeast Asia (the Koreas, Japan, PRC) exhibit similar characteristics of dispute and distrust as once existed in Southeast Asia. In your opinion, what experiences and lessons from the ASEAN Way, if any, could be applied to improve the modern situation in Northeast Asia? 2. I do not want you to get too caught up in the definition of what constitutes ‘Northeast Asia.’ Just like Southeast Asia, the term is a social construct and part of an imagined community. I just want to use it for brevity’s sake, and I generally just want you to use it as an offhand to describe the region that includes South Korea, China and Japan, and North Korea. 3. – typed in Times New Roman, size 12 – 1.5-spaced, with page numbers – Please include full references and a bibliography.
