The Institute of Southeast Asian Studies (ISEAS) is a research institute located in Singapore. Established in 1968,[1] it includes several study centres, a library and a publishing house.

The Institute of Southeast Asian Studies is dedicated to the study of social, political and economic trends in the region.

The aim of the Institute is to nurture a community of scholars interested in the region and to engage in research within the fields of sociology, anthropology, political science, history and economics in order to understand the multi-faceted dimensions of socio-political and economic change.

The intention is not only to stimulate research and debate within scholarly circles, but also to enhance public awareness of the region and facilitate the search for viable solutions to the varied challenges confronting the region.
