With the U.S.-China geostrategic competition heating up, the time is opportune for South Korea, ASEAN, and India to draw on their middle power status to bolster regional security and economic cooperation to protect their interests from any potential superpower fallout. This book investigates the diverse possibilities for collaboration within the India-ASEAN-ROK trilateral framework. It explores the various avenues of cooperation that this new trilateral initiative can benefit from, ranging from security, economic, institutional platforms, and technology to sustainable development and climate change. The book provides regional perspectives on India, ASEAN, and ROK to show the growing appetite in these countries for such trilateral initiatives and to forecast the challenges that may arise.

Lucid and topical, this book will be an essential read for scholars and researchers of political science, international relations, diplomacy, strategic studies, Southeast Asian studies, East Asia, and South Asian studies. It will also be of use to think tanks and policy makers interested in Indo-Pacific, India-ASEAN, and India-ROK issues.
