亞太地區逐漸成為世界的經濟重心，東亞地區最大的區域組織為東協，2001年中國與東協決議在2011年以前，成立「中國─東協自由貿易區」，日本與南韓也加強與東協的經濟整合，東協加三在東亞地區已成為一股趨勢，東協加三若能透過政治和經濟的密切合作，會促進東亞的區域整合，因此政治和經濟因素是影響東協加三的主要因素，依國際政治經濟的角度來區分，本研究把東協加三的促進因素分為東協經濟和政治的變遷、「中國─東協自由貿易區」的進展、日本參與東協加三的進展與南韓參與東協加三的進展，東協加三的障礙因素分為東協加三的發展困境、中國威脅論、南海領土糾紛、日本威脅論、東亞金融危機、美國的干預等因素，針對以上因素分別加以探討。 台灣與東南亞的經貿關係越來越密切，1994年起，台灣開始推行南向政策，由於兩岸的特殊關係，台灣不希望遭遇區域經濟邊緣化的危機，本研究藉由台灣南向政策的探討，以及提出面對東協自由貿易區、「中國─東協自由貿易區」、東協加三的因應之道。 The Asia-Pacific region has become the most important center in the world.
