CHAPTER I

BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Magel (2011) said that the most important trends in contemporary world
development are on the one hand, the process of globalization and on the other – the
increasing activity of regional integration. Globalization and regionalization – are some
of the most controversial concepts. Globalization and regionalization are contradictory
unity as their goal in some cases may be the same, and in some can be quite divergent.
Both of these processes form new institutions in the global economic space.

Regionalization can be defined as politico administrative process by which

regions emerge as relevant units of analysis for economic and political activity and
welfare and service provision. The concept of regionalization is reserved for more
spontaneous processes of region formation by different actors – state or non-state. And
there are still a lot of other answers to regions and regionalization.

According to the Rural Community Assistance Partnership (2019), growing

populations and a shrinking economy means tough times. In times like these, the best
solution may be to band together. Regionalization isn’t always the most desired solution,
but it can be the best solution. Pooling resources can help save both money and resources.
Although one should consider the pros and cons first.

Regional integration has been defined as the process through which independent
national states "voluntarily mingle, merge and mix with their neighbors so as to lose the
factual attributes of sovereignty while acquiring new techniques for resolving conflicts
among themselves” (Haas, 1971). De Lombaerde and Van Langenhove (2007), describe
it as a worldwide phenomenon of territorial systems that increases the interactions
between their components and creates new forms of organization, co-existing with
traditional forms of state-led organization at the national level. Some scholars see
regional integration simply as the process by which states within a particular region
increase their level of interaction with regard to economic, security, political, or social
and cultural issues (Ginkle and Langenhove, 2003).

Regional integration helps countries overcome divisions that impede the flow of
goods, services, capital, people and ideas. These divisions are a constraint to economic
growth, especially in developing countries. Divisions between countries created by
geography, poor infrastructure and inefficient policies are an impediment to economic
growth. Regional integration allows countries to overcome these costly divisions
integrating goods, services and factors’ markets, thus facilitating the flow of trade,
capital, energy, people and ideas according to the World Bank (2018).
Statement of the Problem

The study was about the world of regions, specifically, the South eastern Asian
countries. The study sought answers to the following questions:

1. How does regionalization differ from globalization?

2. How are regions formed and kept together?
3. What are the advantages and disadvantages of regionalism?
4. What are the factors leading to a greater integration of the Southeast Asian region?

Significance of the Study

This study will be a significant endeavor to the following people:

To the Students. Being the primary subject of this study, the bona fide students of
Remedios Trinidad Romualdez Medical Foundation and Don Vicente Orestes Romualdez
Educational Foundation are of foremost concern to interpret and draw benefits from this
research.

To the Faculty of Department of Biomedical Sciences. This research is significant to

the faculty for they may use this as an educational reference for their respective field of
discipline (if applicable).

To the Future Researchers. This study can also be beneficial to future researchers as
they might derive important findings from this and undertake further studies that will
focus on the regionalization of the world.

Scope and Delimitation

This study was conducted at Remedios Trinidad Romualdez Medical Foundation.

The data was collected from various sources in the internet. It is delimited to conduct a
research about the world of regions, specifically, the countries in Southeast Asia. It only
focuses on how regions are kept together, its advantages and disadvantages including the
factors which lead to a greater integration of the regions in Southeast Asia
Definition of Terms

The following terms are defined for further understanding of the major
concepts used in this study. These words were defined conceptually and
operationally:

Regionalization. As defined in this study, it is “the process of dividing an area into

smaller segments called regions.” One of the more obvious examples of regionalization is
the division of a nation into states or provinces (Business Dictionary, 2019).

Regionalism. The researchers define regionalism as “the expression of a common sense

of identify and purpose combined with the creation and implementation of institutions
that express a particular identify and shape collective action within a geographical
region” (Wikipedia, 2019).

Globalization. UNESCO (2019) defined globalization as “a word used to describe the

growing interdependence of the world’s economies, cultures, and populations, brought
about by cross-border trade in goods and services, technology, and flows of investment,
people, and information. Countries have built economic partnerships to facilitate these
movements over many centuries.”

Regions. Wikipedia (2019) defined regions as areas that are broadly divided by physical
characteristics, human impact characteristics, and the interaction of humanity and the
environment.
 CHAPTER II

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES

This chapter contains the synthesis of the literature and studies viewed similar to
the current study.

Related Literature

According to a study conducted by Asian Development Bank (2008), Asia and its
regions are more than just a continent or a group of countries which breed economic and
technological development, poverty reduction, and an ever-expanding middle class. Its
capability to produce extensive goods and labor-intensive workforce goes beyond an easy
reach globally. The trend toward integration is gaining momentum through enhanced
dialogue between countries and people—from the simple contact brought about by
intraregional tourism to formal meetings of government officials, ministers, and political
leaders. Intraregional trade and investment are expanding rapidly, financial markets are
becoming closer and more efficient, and economies are becoming more interdependent.
Regionalism is a relatively new aspect of Asia’s rise. Asia’s economies are increasingly
connected through trade, financial transactions, direct investment, technology, labor and
tourist flows, and other economic relationships.

Additionally, Katzenstein (2015) claimed that regions may provide solutions to

the contradictions between states and markets, security and insecurity, nationalism and
cosmopolitanism. Observing the dramatic shift in world politics since the end of the Cold
War, Peter J. Katzenstein argues that regions have become critical to contemporary world
politics.

As mentioned in a report released by the United Nations titled World Economic

Situation and Prospects 2019, “economic growth accelerated in more than half the
world’s economies in both 2017 and 2018. Developed economies expanded at a steady
pace of 2.2 per cent in both years, and growth rates in many countries have risen close to
their potential, while unemployment rates in several developed economies have dropped
to historical lows. Among the developing economies, the regions of East and South Asia
remain on a relatively strong growth trajectory, expanding by 5.8 per cent and 5.6 per
cent, respectively in 2018. Many commodity exporting countries, notably fuel exporters,
are continuing a gradual recovery, although they remain exposed to volatile prices. The
impact of the sharp drop in commodity markets in 2014/15 also continues to weigh on
fiscal and external balances and has left a legacy of higher levels of debt.”

Other than that, Ernst &Young Global Management (2015) stated that “the world
has a shared history and a rich, diverse cultural heritage. This heritage is cherished
globally as an asset that belongs to us all, yet gives our societies their identity and binds
them together, nurturing a rich cultural and creative present and future. That is why
stakeholders of the creative and cultural world must do everything in their power to
preserve this heritage and the diversity of actual cultural content, amid a political and
economic climate that is subject to major upheavals.”

Related Studies

According to Soderbaum (2013), there is a long tradition in both research and

policy to focus on formal and inter-state regional organizations in the discussion about
regions and regionalism. This is a consequence of the dominance of Europe as the main
case and paradigm, and of rationalist and problem-solving theoretical perspectives, which
privilege state-centric perspectives and pre-given conceptualizations of regions. The
problem is that both Eurocentrism and static understandings of regional space negatively
impact theoretical development, empirical analysis as well as policy. The view offered
emphasizes the social construction of regions and the various ways in which state,
market, and civil society actors relate and come together in different formal and informal
patterns of regionalism. It is also argued that the next step in the study of regionalism is
to develop its comparative element, which will be crucial in overcoming Eurocentrism
and other forms of parochialism.

Furthermore, Parthenay (2019) claimed that “beyond numbers, regional

organizations have also progressively developed their own actorness in international
politics. Many regional organizations are involved beyond their geographical or
conceptual borders, in particular through membership in international organizations or
problem-solving in other regions. He quoted Panke, Lang and Wiedemann (2017)
accounts for an emergent phenomenon known as a ‘regionalization of international
negotiations:’ as many regional organizations acquire formal status within international
organizations, they assume an active role in multilateral arenas that become more and
more complex governance systems.

However, in a study conducted by Axinte, et. al, (2019), their paper argues that
city-regions are not mere socioeconomic units through which competitiveness can be
achieved, but also rich, socioecological spaces. Although the progressive regionalist
literature has taken significant steps in this direction, concerns remain that critical
contemporary issues such as environmental sustainability, cultural viability, social
exclusion or political (dis)empowerment have not been addressed in a holistic way. The
researchers claimed that “they attempt to advance the debate and overcome some of the
shortcomings by connecting progressive regionalism with two other literature strands:
collaborative governance and regenerative development.”

Moreover, Harrison (2015) stated that policy elites mobilized with speed in the
knowledge that not only did they need to intervene to create the conditions necessary for
capital accumulation, they needed to make their region(s) more attractive to transnational
capital than their national and international competitors to be competitive in today's
quicksilver global economy.
 Venables (2015) made emphasis on the investment of time and effort in
regionalism which reduces the capacity of governments to invest in multilateral
negotiation. On the other side, he believed that it is argued that regionalism can help, by
reducing the number of separate negotiators (since members of a customs union
negotiate as a single body) – an argument that begs the question of how members
formulate their common position.

Soderbaum (2015) concluded then that regions need to be closely related to the
changing historical political context, especially those concerning political organization
and world order, and consequently, new forms of regions may occur in different times.
However, throughout history there have also been important continuities between various
types of regionalism, which obviates rigid temporal distinctions.

Theoretical Framework of the Study

The study was anchored on the Theories of Regionalism by Frederik Söderbaum

(2011) which presented an overview of some of the key theoretical debates and
controversies in the field that are particularly relevant for the study of Asian regionalism.

In Soderbaum’s conclusion, to quote his statement, he claimed that “over the last
decade, regionalism has become an academic growth industry in a number of social
science disciplines and sub-disciplines: European studies, comparative politics,
international economics, geography international relations, security studies, and
international political economy. The approach of these different academic specialisations
varies considerably, which means that regionalism means different things to different
people. At the same time, there are an increasing number of theories of regionalism. Yet,
there is fragmentation and still a lack of communication between scholars from various
theoretical standpoints as well as from different regional specialisations (even within the
more specific sub-field of Asian regionalism). The tensions and differences in the field
illustrate the fact that the regional phenomenon is multidimensional, which seems to
imply that there is need for a certain degree of analytical and theoretical eclecticism but
also greater conceptual clarity (deLombaerde, et al., 2010).
 CHAPTER III

METHODOLOGY

Research Design

The qualitative - descriptive documentary was used in this research. This is a type
of social science research that collects works through non- numerical data and that it
seeks to interpret meaning from these data which aids in the understanding of social life
through the study of targeted population or community (Crossman, A., 2019). Also, the
descriptive analysis method that was used is a systematic procedure for reviewing
documents whether it is computer-based or internet-based. This is often used in
combination with other qualitative research methods as a means of the combination of
methodologies in the study of the same phenomenon (Denzin, 1970). Qualitative -
descriptive analysis is the best method we used in order to gather data about regionalism
and its relation to globalization.

Research Locale

The study covered regionalization and globalization of the contemporary world.

Data Gathering Procedure

1. Descriptive documentary method

The researchers used this method in order to review or evaluate documents

through computer and internet-based data. The researchers gathered information through
internet-based reviewing as one of the qualitative methods of gathering data.
 CHAPTER IV

PRESENTATION OF DATA

The study was about the world of regions, specifically, the South eastern Asian
countries. Following are obtained results and discussion of the data:

1. How does regionalization differ from globalization?

Regionalism is defined as a political ideology that favors a specific region over a

greater area. It usually results due to political separations, religious geography, cultural
boundaries, linguistic regions, and managerial divisions. Regionalism emphasizes on
developing the administrative power and swaying the available or some inhabitants of a
region (Victor, 2018).
Globalization is the word used to describe the growing interdependence of the
world’s economies, cultures, and populations, brought about by cross-border trade in
goods and services, technology, and flows of investment, people, and information.
Countries have built economic partnerships to facilitate these movements over many
centuries. But the term gained popularity after the Cold War in the early 1990s, as these
cooperative arrangements shaped modern everyday life (Kolb, 2019).

2. How are regions formed and kept together?

According to National Geographic (2019), a region can be defined by natural or

artificial features. Language, government, or religion can define a region, as can forests,
wildlife, or climate. Regions, large or small, are the basic units of geography. It makes
the region kept together because of the process of dividing an area into smaller segments
called the regions. Moreover, there are leaders who help keep regions together to ensure
peace and safety of the people living in every region. Organization of Petroleum
Exporting Companies (OPEC), for instance, was formed in 1960 in Baghdad, Iraq. As
mentioned by James Chen (2019), the reason why the organization was formed is to
coordinate the petroleum policies of its members and to provide member states with
technical and economic aid. This is also to secure fair and stable prices for petroleum
producers; an efficient, economic and regular supply of petroleum to consuming nations;
and a fair return on capital to those investing in the industry.
 3. What are the advantages and disadvantages of regionalism?

Kritzinger (1996) enumerated the pros and cons of regionalism. The advantages
include trade gain, increased returns and increased competition, and investment. On the
other hand, the disadvantages include overlapping membership issues, institutional
issues, and policy design issues.
The author claimed that [in trade gain], trade agreements among regions will demand
for third party goods to decrease. In addition, more acute competition in the trade zone
may induce outside firms to cut prices to maintain exports to the region. This will
somehow create a positive result in terms of trade effect in member countries.
In increased returns and increased competition, Kritzinger (21996) stated that market
enlargement increase trade off among larger firms. Countries with the best and newest
technology and infrastructure are most likely the ‘beneficiaries.’
Kritzinger (1996) added investment in which market trade off will bring direct foreign
investment thus bringing forth an increase in the economic sector.
Despite these, it is inevitable not to view regionalism on the other perspective.
Regionalism also has lapses and Kritzinger (1996) mentioned overlapping membership
issues and she claimed that, “Countries that are members of more than one arrangement
will be required to choose between them as it is impractical to claim membership of
different customs unions.”
Adding to that, institutional issues play a role in regionalism in which countries may
have limited regional institutional capacities that may hinder them from fully contributing
to other countries.
Lastly, Kritzinger (1996) made emphasis on policy design issues. To quote her, she
stated that “Exogenous influences such as adverse changes in climatic conditions,
political instability and deteriorating risk perceptions as well as the global economic
environment and commodity markets have been driving a wedge between domestic
economic policies and outcomes.” This clearly points out strengthening of what is she so-
called macroeconomic stability.
 4. What are the factors leading to a greater integration of the Southeast Asian
region?

According to James Fuertes (2018), the entire world is moving towards

integration, it is inevitable. But a regional partnership is the first step. In Asia, the
southeast Asian countries have already formed ASEAN (ASSOCIATION OF
SOUTHEAST ASIAN NATIONS. This regional power block appears to work fine, the
member states fit very well together because of the following factors:

Trade in the world economy is intertwined with each other whether we like it or
not. We all want or need something from another part of the world, and global trade
facilitates that.

The cultures of Asia is diverse but they do share many things (Similar Cultures).
This makes it an easier fit during times of negotiations.

The Asian region recognizes the mutual benefit/Common Goals of a slow

integration. The territories involved are not far from each other and the industriousness of
its population can work as a powerful negotiating block against those from other parts of
the world.
 CHAPTER V

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION

The following are the conclusion and recommendation from this study:

Conclusion

1. Regionalization is more of a political ideology whereas globalization is an

interdependence and partnerships among different countries or regions.
2. Regions are formed and kept together by member countries who belong to a
specific area or organization with a shared vision such that of OPEC.
3. The advantages include trade gain, increased returns and increased competition,
and investment. On the other hand, the disadvantages include overlapping membership
issues, institutional issues, and policy design issues. (Kritzinger, 1996) These are what
identifies the benefits and limitations of regions in the global market.
4. There are many similarities among the nations in Asia with regards to economy,
politics and culture. These similarities are the basis on which these nations saw it
fitting to integrate with one another to achieve certain goals that they would not
have been able to achieve by themselves (Berry, 2015).

Recommendations

The researchers recommend the following to the future researchers:

1. We recommend to the future researchers to fully expand the topic on the

differences between regionalization and globalization.
2. An in-depth understanding of how regions are formed and kept together is highly
recommended.
3. To the future researchers, the researchers recommend to identify what other
possible advantages and disadvantages are there for regionalism that the
researches may have possibly missed out.
4. The researchers recommend to both readers and future researchers to conduct
specific studies with regards to regional integration in terms of political,
economical and cultural spheres.
