ASEAN-2025 Economic Community Program as a New Stage of Integration Development

Abstract

The article considers theoretical and practical tendencies of the development of the integration organization of the ASEAN. The reasons and conditions that contribute to the expansion of the regulatory framework of the Association are considered. The current difficult situation is complicated by the existing financial crisis. Still, it is this state of affairs that determines the importance of positions held by countries in the process of redistribution of wealth. Given the existing circumstances, even developed countries have to unite in various international organizations to achieve their goals. The Association of Southeast Asian Nations today is the largest political and economic union in the southeast. It is obvious that many participants in this organization are very different from each other both in terms of the degree of economic progress and the level of development of the domestic economy. The similarity of understanding of the legal aspects of regulating social relations is also not absolute. The study of the specifics of the functioning of such a subject of international law as ASEAN can have a significant impact on the understanding of many integration processes in the modern world.
