Reinventing ASEAN brings together contributions by some of the leading and well-established experts on ASEAN. It focuses primarily on the political-security and economic dimensions of ASEAN co-operation. In so doing, the authors have all treated the scope of their topics broadly. The idea of politics and security in ASEAN has been considered from many different aspects, under the rubric of "comprehensive" security or, to use a more recent term, "human" security. The consideration of economics is also rounded, and includes issues of development, as well as the political context for economic co-operation. Additionally, ASEAN’s processes and institutions, or what has been called the "ASEAN way", are also studied. After all, co-operation between nation-states encompasses not only what the members are trying to achieve together, but also the rules of how they are to work together. Thus, other areas for ASEAN co-operation, such as financial matters and environmental protection are also considered among the larger issues.
