Course Description:
There are three main objectives in this course. First, we will examine how to prepare a theoretical basis to analyze East Asian international relations from the 19th century to the advent of the Cold War and we will pay special attention to how Korea encountered changes and vicissitudes of fortune as it chartered its own course in the world. Second, we will identify factors which stabilized and disrupted the East Asian international order and how interactions between such factors affected Korea’s responses. Finally, we will consider, in light of the history covered in this course, what the future of East Asia’s international order will look like and how Korea’s diplomacy should act as a pivot between East Asia and the United States.
