| Summary / Abstract (Note) | This article explores the formation and evolution of regional institutionas in the Asia-Pacific and East Asia. Employing a historical institutionalist framework, this article institutions were created at critical junctures, precipitated by extra-region-al developments that called the legitimacy of existing institutional mechanisms into serious question. Preexisting institutions greatly shaped the institutional design of the subsequesnt regional isntitutions, revealing a path-dependent nature of institutional evolution.The timing and sequence of regional institution building is an important factor for explaining institutional change. |
