The main purpose of this paper is to outline a preliminary framework for the analysis of the nature of geopolitical change in relation to interactions among globalization, the state, & regionalism for the Asia-Pacific region. Overall, it is clear that the combination of globalization with the "collapse" of bipolarity has ensured that regionalism & regionalization will become increasingly important in world politics. There is a need for postrealist spatial structures & policies to cope with all of these outcomes, & regionalism can potentially play an important "intermediary" role in which the reestablishment of security & stability can be facilitated. The emergence of "new regionalism" in the Asia-Pacific is potentially well suited to these requirements, although its structure & function are highly contested as the paper demonstrates. 3 Tables, 2 Figures.
