Abstract Over its fifty years of established existence beginning in 1967, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) has expounded its consolidated and integrated model in political relations, economic developments, and cultural values. However, confronted by threats to global security, ASEAN has also faced the complex impacts of transnational narcotics trafficking (TransNT). The study uses grey literature as secondary data to illustrate the current situations of TransNT in Southeast Asia by way of examining drug trafficking starting from the original countries (Myanmar) through the transit points (Vietnam) to final destination countries (Malaysia). Besides reviewing more than four decades of collaboration, the paper analyses ASEAN’s milestones in building its cooperative mechanism and assesses its institutional framework for combatting TransNT with specific initiatives. The study notes the main barriers and practical challenges that constrain the process of regional cooperation. Some brief recommendations are also suggested for further research in the near future to enhance regional cooperation in combatting transnational crimes.

No entanto, perante as ameaças da segurança global, a ASEAN também enfrentou impactos complexos do tráfico transnacional de narcóticos (TransNT). O estudo utiliza a literatura cinzenta como dados secundários para ilustrar as atuais situações do TransNT no Sudeste Asiático através do exame do tráfico de droga dos países originais (Myanmar) através de pontos de trânsito (Vietname) para os países de destino final (Malásia). Além de analisar mais de quatro décadas de colaboração, o documento analisa os marcos da ASEAN para construir o seu mecanismo de cooperação e avalia o seu quadro institucional para combater a TransNT com iniciativas específicas. O estudo aponta para as principais barreiras e desafios práticos para limitar o processo de cooperação regional. São também sugeridas algumas breves recomendações para aprofundar a investigação nos próximos tempos, a fim de reforçar a cooperação regional no combate aos crimes transnacionais.Resumen A lo largo de sus cincuenta años de existencia, desde 1967, la Asociación de Naciones del Sudeste Asiático (ASEAN) ha demostrado su modelo consolidado e integrado en materia de relaciones políticas, desarrollo económico y valores culturales. Sin embargo, ante las amenazas a la seguridad mundial, la ASEAN también se ha enfrentado a los complejos impactos del tráfico transnacional de estupefacientes (TransNT). El estudio utiliza la literatura gris como datos secundarios para ilustrar la situación actual del TransNT en el Sudeste Asiático mediante el examen del tráfico de drogas desde los países de origen (Myanmar) a través de los puntos de tránsito (Vietnam) hasta los países de destino final (Malasia). Además de repasar más de cuatro décadas de colaboración, el documento analiza los hitos de la ASEAN para construir su mecanismo de cooperación y evalúa su marco institucional para combatir el TransNT con iniciativas específicas. El estudio señala los principales obstáculos y desafíos prácticos que limitan el proceso de cooperación regional. También se sugieren algunas breves recomendaciones para seguir investigando en el futuro cercano con el fin de mejorar la cooperación regional para combatir los delitos transnacionales.2022text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=8454637(Revista) ISSN 1794-3108Criminalidad, ISSN 1794-3108, Vol. 64, Nº. 1, 2022, pags. 177-192engLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
