Pan-Asianism

Pan-Asianism is a political and cultural movement that promotes unity and cooperation among Asian countries, emphasizing shared history, values, and identity. It seeks to foster solidarity to oppose Western dominance and influence, aiming for collective strength and independence. Historically, it has taken different forms—sometimes emphasizing cultural pride and regional identity, other times advocating for political or military alliances. While it can inspire regional pride and collaboration, it has also been associated with nationalist and imperialist agendas, reflecting complex attitudes toward sovereignty and regional cooperation within Asia.
