亚太经济合作论坛等多边组织必须位于全球超自由主义霸权的框架内，并在国际组织的合法性角色中被预测。在对亚洲发展状态“模型”的（相对）成功相比，对增长和现代化的特定理解是如何实现的。围绕着这个项目，并查看APEC中的某些声音是如何试图将“良好”的经济实践的命名，以及“平均”亚洲高级或折衷的“平均值”的安全性。选项”以前的极端发达的国家模型特别有趣。一个特定的多边组织，即APEC。博茨瓦纳大学政治与行政研究系的讲师，南非斯泰伦博斯大学政治科学系的来访研究员。 Stellenbosch。
Multilateral organisations such as the Asia Pacific Economic Co-operation Forum must be situated within the framework of both the hegemony of global hyper-liberalism and the legitimising role of international organisations. The neo-liberal "vision" upon which organisations such as APEC are predicated upon holds particular understandings of how growth and modernisation may be achieved. In contrast to the (relative) success of the Asian developmental state "model", the hyper-liberal project seeks to delimit most state involvement in the economy. By examining the discourse which surrounds this project and by looking at how certain voices within APEC have sought to cast what "good" economic practice are, how the security of the "average" Asian advanced or compromised is of great interest. The implications of closing off as a “non-option” the formerly exalted developmental state models are particularly intriguing. What this paper seeks to investigate is the way that a particular form of economic common sense is now promoted in Asia as an integral part of a regional and global project, by illustrating the role of one particular multilateral organisation, namely APEC. How this impacts upon security in the region, defined in a broad and non-orthodox manner, is at the heart of this paper. ******************** Ian Taylor is a Lecturer in the Department of Political and Administrative Studies, University of Botswana and a Visiting Research Fellow at the Department of Political Science, University of Stellenbosch, South Africa.
