国際社会における地域統合の意義 : 欧州統合から見えるもの

What is the significance of success of EU intergration for us? It seems to symbolize the possibility of a new type of regionalism that will ultimately lead to the loose federation of nations. Generally speaking, the global community can establish the stable social order after establishing multidimensional relationships of mutual trust in the political, economic and security fields. This means the establishment of multilateral system of politics and economies based on the regional unity among plural nations. The essence of collective system lies in the construction of an organization that can concertedly face with global problems. It may require much time and efforts to nurture mutual trust in order ot achieve the integrated collective system, but once concerned nations can attend the common forum and participate in the dialog as equal partners, the basis will be laid for the establishment of perceful international order. For this purpose, we need a new system of regional integration that deals with political, economic, and security problems in a comprehensive and integrated manner. It is not impossible because ther premise of regional integration is dependent on the mutual trust between the nations concerned. I believe that, as shown in the case of EU, a new type of regional integration can be achieved by the nations concerned sharing the functions as equal partners.
