“…While the results identify the US and China as the main actors in the region, a positive relationship between them reveals the possibility for them to co-exist in the region. With the two great powers competing for influence in the regional order, the existence of both powers in the regional order is supported by both China enjoying the relatively ineffective regional institutional architecture and the US reluctantly committing itself to doing something about it (Beeson, 2015(Beeson, , 2019. However, both China and the US play a significant role in facilitating a stable environment for the regional countries.…”

Recent developments in regional studies argue that geopolitical influence is one factor affecting the regional order. However, studies on geopolitical influence have yet to cover East Asia to explain East Asia's regional order. The quantitative approach to geopolitical influence studies still faces a methodological challenge because it uses an arbitrary weighting of geopolitical influence in developing an index. In order to address those challenges, this research deploys factor analysis as a non-arbitrary weighting system to measure the geopolitical influence of China, Japan, Russia, and the US in East Asia during the period from 2005 to 2018. Additionally, this research explores how the geopolitical influence of those countries affects East Asia's regional cooperation and integration. The research shows that: (1) China has been able to compete with the US for geopolitical influence in East Asia since 2014, and (2) Chinese, Japanese, Russian, and US geopolitical influence positively contributes to regional cooperation and integration in East Asia, with the US and China as the main contributors. The research highlights three possible causes to explain the results: China's regional infrastructure initiatives, rejuvenation of China's view on globalization, and the relative decline of US relations with the allies in the region.

“…Тихоокеанский альянс -наиболее динамичная организация региона, которая обладает развитой логистической инфраструктурой, выгодным географическим положением, доступом к глобальным рынкам. В силу этого альянс имеет хорошие перспективы в международной экономике [7], так как остаётся организацией, способной к собственному расширению за счет увеличения числа странучастниц, конкурентоспособной не только в Латинской Америке и среди тихоокеанских государств, но и во всем мире. Благодаря значительному количеству населения в странах -участниках объединения ТА имеет и весьма перспективный внутренний рынок, что важно как для привлечения иностранных инвесторов, так и для обеспечения экономической стабильности внутри стран-участниц -основы для развития предпринимательства.…”

Free Trade Agreements and US Foreign Policy

The United States has completed numerous free trade agreements (FTAs), but the pattern of these agreements defies conventional explanations. Arguments that are based on domestic interests and economic gains cannot explain the comparative under-performance of US trade agreements. The pattern of US trade agreements is also inconsistent with explanations that focus on state power, which depict FTAs as a "reward" for loyal clients. This article finds a better explanation for the pattern of the United States' FTAs by considering the systemic level of analysis, and in particular the dynamics of the international economic order. It illustrates that strong competition for bilateral trade agreements has resulted in patterns of agreements that the United States cannot easily dominate. This is not to say that the United States has no capacity to finalize trade agreements: the United States remains the world's most influential nation-state, but the constraints of the international system necessarily limit the degree to which FTAs can serve the interests of US foreign economic policy. The recent evolution of international trade politics, however, indicates that smaller states are comparatively less vulnerable to pressure from great powers, such as the United States.
