Abstract

The countries that comprise the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) now account for almost 8% of global exports (4% in 1990), which is on a par with the United States. This region has benefited from Chinese growth and the extension of value chains. It is therefore increasingly integrated with China, which has been its leading supplier since 2007 and its leading client since 2009. Its role as an export platform has been further enhanced in the context of the tensions between the United States and China. The restructuring of companies’ production chains, driven by the strategic rivalry between China and the United States and by the need to secure supplies, is a major challenge for this region, whose development is dependent on its successful integration into international trade. Les pays qui composent l’Association des nations de l’Asie du Sud Est (ASEAN) totalisent désormais près de 8 % des exportations mondiales (4 % en 1990), à parité avec les États Unis. Cette région a bénéficié de la croissance chinoise et de l’extension des chaînes de valeur. Elle affiche ainsi une intégration commerciale croissante avec la Chine, devenue premier fournisseur depuis 2007 et premier client depuis 2009. Son rôle comme plateforme d’exportation se renforce encore dans le contexte des tensions americano chinoises. La restructuration des chaînes de production des entreprises, motivée par la rivalité stratégique entre Chine et États Unis et par la sécurisation des approvisionnements, constitue un enjeu majeur pour cette région dont l’essor tient à son intégration réussie dans les échanges commerciaux internationaux.
