We often assume that global cooperation should look like NATO — efficient, decisive, and backed by hard power. But the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, or ASEAN, takes a completely different path — one that prizes harmony, consensus, and cultural nuance over confrontation.

Western analysts often call it inefficient, yet ASEAN’s slow and steady diplomacy has sustained peace and prosperity across one of the most diverse regions on Earth.

In this episode, we explore how Southeast Asia’s “galactic polity” heritage, as described by anthropologist Stanley Tambiah, continues to shape its modern political identity — and why what appears ambiguous to the West might actually be the foundation of its strength.

Highlights
  • NATO’s clarity vs. ASEAN’s flexibility — two visions of security

  • The legacy of the “galactic polity” in Asian political culture

  • How cultural whiplash shaped modern Asian diplomacy

  • Why consensus, not confrontation, drives ASEAN’s growth

  • The quiet strength behind Asia’s “inefficiency”

  • What the West can learn from Asia’s cooperative approach
