Yet, their security roles and influence do not remain constant. Their raison d'etre, objectives, and functions experience sporadic changes, and some institutions upgrade military functions for peacekeeping operations, while others limit their functions to political and security dialogues. The question is: why and how do these variances in institutional change emerge? This book explores the mechanisms of institutional change, focusing on regional security institutions led by non-great powers. It constructs a theoretical model for institutional change that provides a new understanding of their changing roles in regional security, which has yet to be fully explored in the International Relations field. In so doing, the book illuminates why, when, and how each organization restructures its role, function, and influence. Using case studies of the Association of Southeast Asian nation's (ASEAN), the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), and the Organization of African Unity (OAU)/African Union (AU), it also sheds light on similarities and differences in institutional change between regional security institutions"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aRoutledge advances in international relations and global politics ;$v128. 606 $aSecurity, International$zAsia 606 $aSecurity, International$zAfrica 606 $aOrganizational change$zAsia 606 $aOrganizational change$zAfrica 606 $aAsian cooperation 606 $aAfrican cooperation 615 0$aSecurity, International 615 0$aSecurity, International 615 0$aOrganizational change 615 0$aOrganizational change 615 0$aAsian cooperation. 615 0$aAfrican cooperation. 676 $a355/.031095 700 $aKoga$b Kei.$0910275 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155129803321 996 $aReinventing regional security institutions in Asia and Africa$92037449 997 $aUNINA
