The period of colonisation additionally deepened the disparities between the particular countries and even build upon some barriers and antagonism. The first approaches to regional cooperation and integration began only after World War II, along with the process of decolonization. The main premise of the initial stage of integration processes, especially in the southern part of the region, which is the cradle of Asian regionalism, were external threats, which remained the main catalyst of cooperation and integration processes in the following decades. The intensifi cation of economic cooperation in the countries of East Asia from the 1990s was a conscious response of governments to the fear of economic marginalization and moving away from the sources of creation of prosperity on the global market. The growing interdependence of the countries in the region revealed during the Asian fi nancial crisis of 1997–98 underpinned the necessity of joint strategy and governance at the regional level and marked a breakthrough in regional cooperation. Starting from the 1990s, and in particular in the fi rst decade of the XXI century the growing institutional interdependence was observed and exemplifi ed by multilateral and bilateral structures of cooperation within the region, and of interregional and intercontinental character. The integration experiences of East Asian countries indicate that while in the fi rst stages of cooperation and integration external threats could have been the driving force of the integration processes, institutional solutions are crucial in the later stages of deepening integration, in particular in the context of providing public goods – both regional and global. Emerging regional awareness in this area can be observed in East Asia today, primarily in the wake of the economic crisis of 2007/2008 and the need to adapt and modify the existing architecture of global order.}, title={East Asia in regional and global cooperation and governance – challenges and implications}, URL={http://publikacje.pan.pl/Content/116688/PDF-MASTER/21Nawrot.pdf}, keywords={regional and global cooperation and governance, integration, East Asia}, }
