About this report
The end of the Cold War created a transformed strategic environment in Southeast Asia, where states suddenly faced the dual challenge of adapting to new global dynamics and responding to persistent regional rivalries.
With the binary logic of bipolar confrontation gone, national security priorities diversified, reflecting a mix of domestic imperatives, territorial disputes, and aspirations for international recognition. The modernization of armed forces became an essential tool through which governments sought to safeguard sovereignty, project deterrent capability, and position themselves within wider global security frameworks.
Key questions this report answers
- How did the end of the Cold War transform the strategic environment and diversify national security priorities in Southeast Asia?
