Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) is an economically progressive, culturally vibrant and a geo-politically strategic congregation. It has a membership of 10 countries, namely Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. Indias engagement with ASEAN started with its Look East Policy. India became a Sectoral Dialogue Partner of ASEAN in 1992 and Full Dialogue Partner in 1996. In November 2001, ASEAN-India relationship was upgraded to the summit level. Indias engagement with ASEAN has been historically evolving as it shares strong civilizational and cultural ties with the countries of the region. Presently, India and ASEAN engage in economic, cultural and strategic spheres through the framework of Act East Policy. The present volume contains 8 research articles which provide deep insights into India-ASEAN relations. Authored by experts in the field, these contributions add to the existing body of knowledge and discourse on economic, trade and cultural aspects of India-ASEAN engagements. The book focuses on contemporary and pragmatic discourses on the theme and would be useful for all those interested in understanding various facets of India-ASEAN co-operation.
