N2 - The idea that a decade or so after the height of the so-called ‘Asian values debate’ the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) would establish a human rights institution may be surprising to casual observers of the region. But the ASEAN Intergovernmental Commission on Human Rights (AICHR) was established in 2009 and, in this scholarly volume of exemplary research, Tan Hsien-Li charts its history and looks forward to what the development might mean for the future.
