This panel ac ts on Amin’s call by assembling scholars, activists, and organizers – many of whom practice more than one of these roles in tandem – to advance the po ssibility and actuality of internationalism in today’s global Southeast Asi as. In the current conjuncture, we can see what Promise Li calls antagonist ic cooperation between Biden’s America, Putin’s Russia, Xi’s China, the Nor th Atlantic bloc, and other subimperial powers. Against this backdrop, Sout heast Asia and its diasporas have become an active site of internationalist realignment. Prominent configurations include the Milk Tea Alliance, Migra nte International, inter-Southeast Asian solidarity for platform workers, s truggles against refugee deportations, and more generally, a reimagination of the Bandung spirit from below. These actually existing internationalist configurations, with political imaginaries that tend to be left-adjacent mo re than explicitly leftist, affirm the promise of combining uneven Southeas t Asian leftist praxes across national borders - articulating struggles fro m industrial labor to agrarian dispossession, from gender oppression to env ironmental degradation. The historical and material legacy of the European metropole also beckons. The imperial metropole long nourished anti-imperial struggle among Southeast Asian exiles and dissidents, and today, trans-Eur opean networks of Southeast Asian exiles continue to strengthen ongoing str uggles in Southeast Asia. Taking seriously Amin’s insistence on the need fo r a Fifth International, this panel aims not only to clarify, but also adva nce, the promise of internationalist Southeast Asias from historical and co ntemporary perspectives.
