East Asia experiences three orders in the history. Under the Hua Yi Tributarysystem at the Centre of the Chinese dynasty, ancient China plays a dominant part inthe international system of East Asia. Its neighboring countries pay tribute to it and isconferred and provide security, which formation a vassal relationship for a longperiod. The peaceful international order with the radiation of feudal imperil power isbasically kept in addition to the challenges of individual countries. Under thecolonial order which dominated by capitalist powers, East Asia is completely fetteredby the unequal treaties. Except Japan, which walk up capitalism way afterwards, all ofthe East Asian counties become colonial or semi-colonial, which is in extremelyinferior international position under the Western-dominated Versailles-WashingtonSystem. In the Bipolar order East Asia become an important battleground for globalhegemony of the U.S. and the USSR. However, since the end of the Cold War,socialist China rises gradually, Japan has become the second largest economic powerin the capitalist world. Southeast Asian countries continue to expand their owninfluence by forming the Association of Southeast Asian Nations. East Asia make ahuge economic development, while power relations appearing important adjustments.United States still attempts to have the East Asia situation in hand through militaryalliances and other forms, though its influence have begun to shrink in East Asia, Themajor issues of the East Asian is the reconstruction of the system, it can be said that aslight move in one part may affect the situation as a whole.Some important factors plays a vital role in the process of East Asian regionalorder adjustment. First, the East Asian economy integration binds east countiestogether through the economy, what produce some spillover effects, which promptscounties to have economy consideration in the political diplomacy. As the two largestcounties in East Asia, the overall rise in China go hand in hand with the “normalnationalization” of Japan, which also caused mutual suspicion between the twocountries. And the difficult solved structural contradictions remains, which is thelargest influencing factor in the East Asia order. In addition, the intervention of theoutside powers in the East Asian affairs and the traditional culture also take manyvariables for the East Asia order reconstruction.The realistic choice of the East Asia is to learn the experience of Europeanintegration and operating experience of the European Union, building the Communityorder to promote the integration of East Asian.In the construction path, first of all, it isto take full advantage of the achievements of the economic cooperation of East Asiancountries, to continue to strengthen the communications from the mechanismconstruction, financial and energy cooperation and infrastructure construction,intensify economic dependence, promote political mutual trust. Secondly, make use ofthe traditional culture, establish the East Asian community consciousness based ontraditional East Asian sense and collective memory,.On the way, it is necessary tobuild the East Asian cultural exchange mechanism by NGO-led government’s traction,focusing on youth culture and academic exchanges. In the end,East Asian countriesneed to strengthen existed ASEAN "10+3" cooperation mechanism, and begin touse loose safety-mechanism on the basis of this mechanism, in which the we can seethe transition from non-traditional to traditional security cooperation.Theestablishment of a permanent setup of a binding,promote political integration,and inthe building process, the countries need to observe the principle:cautious,lenient and slowly, never too impatient. Especially, China must try to shape the image of aresponsible big country, and explore common interests and push forward pragmaticcooperation steadily on the road to build the Community.
