The Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM) is the highest level dialogue and interregional forum between Europe and East Asia since the mid-1990s. In fact, ASEM was formed and initiated by two key actors-the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the European Union (EU). Although many studies have been conducted on the subject of ASEM, an analysis of the two key actors is lacking. The goal of this paper is to put forward an analysis from the perspective of new regionalism and offer an understanding of the two actors´ structural motives. From the standpoint of three distinct aspects of new regionalism—extroverted and open regionalism, North-South regionalism, and multiple regionalism—this paper attempts to demonstrate that ASEM is an alternative mechanism for the ASEAN and the EU to react to the challenge of globalization and regionalization.
