Research Abstract |
First, regarding the impacts of the Sino-US rapprochement upon the Korean Peninsula taking both North and South Korean responses into consideration, I have succeeded in abstracting the political dynamism of the relations between such the between-alliances changes as the Sino-US rapprochement on the one hand, and such the inter-alliance changes as the transformation of the US-Korean alliances on the other hand.

aking clear its causes by researching not only the US diplomatic documents but also South Korean government's diplomatic documents taking such the instability of the inter-alliance politics in terms of the US-Korean alliance and the Sino-DPRK alliance. With regard to these studies, I submitted the following three articles, which is "Dynamism of the Korean Cold War : Its Divergences from the Global Cold War and Its Linkages with the Inter-Alliance Politics," "The Significance of the materials of the US National Archives and Their Limits," and "The Dynamics of the Korean Cold War : A Consideration of the Impacts of the US-China Rapprochement on Korea." Especially, regarding the article "The Significance of the materials of the US National Archives and Their Limits," I had a chance to make a presentation in the international conference sponsored by the National Institute of Korean History in which many Korean scholars majoring Korean contemporary history participated, and I was given a lot of good comments. Regarding the article, "The Dynamics of the Korean Cold War : A Consideration of the Impacts of the US-China Rapprochement on Korea," I had a very good chance to make a presentation in the international conference sponsored by the University of North Korean Studied of Kyungnam University in ROK, The Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars at Washington DC, and Beijing University, in which not only Korean scholars but also the US and Chinese scholars participated. Second, regarding the impacts of the transformation of the international order surrounding the Korean peninsula upon Korea-Japan relations, I studied based on the diplomatic documents not only of the US National Archives but also of the diplomatic documents of ROK and Japanese governments. I succeeded in making clear the political dynamism of ROK-Japan relations, especially, its new dimensions early in 1970s. And I submitted the article, "Structural Change of South Korea-Japan Relation : Its Limits and Potentialities." Less
