With the full support of the Korean government and a tremendously successful history, we have been trying hard to institutionalize the Forum as a crucial regional venue for distinguished experts to discuss and carve out a new blue- print for Northeast Asian peace and prosperity. This volume is a collection of papers and essays presented at the 4th Jeju Peace Forum, which was held from June 21 - June 23, 2007, in Jeju, South Korea as a continuation of the previous 2001, 2003 and 2005 Forums. In an effort to ascertain the future state of the Korean penin- sula at a time of momentous change, the Jeju Special Self-Governing Province, together with the International Peace Foundation (with which the Jeju Peace Institute is affiliated) and the East Asia Founda- tion, planned the Forum based on the theme of “Peace and Prosperity in Northeast Asia: Exploring the European Experience.” The 4th Jeju Peace Forum proceeded in the form of “forums within a forum” by holding two special sessions: Special Session I, titled “From Helsinki to Jeju: Designing the Jeju Process for a Multilateral Cooperation Mechanism in Northeast Asia,” and Special Session II, “IT Cooperation in East Asia.” This reflects JPI’s keen awareness that we need to closely examine the correlation between the formation of a Northeast Asian security/economic community and information tech- 6 Peace and Prosperity in Northeast Asia [Vol. I] nology that can bring about changes in international relations as well as changes in political, security, and economic processes at a domestic level. The 4th Forum explored the European experience in political, security and economic fields and applied them to the problems of peace and prosperity in Northeast Asia. In other words, throughout this forum, keeping the key issue of forming a cooperative framework in Northeast Asia in mind, we addressed the European experience during the Cold War and in the post-Cold War era, including the CSCE/OSCE (Conference for Security and Cooperation in Europe/ Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe), German reuni- fication, and the economic and political integration of the EU. We explored applicable ideas and the framework for peace and prosperi- ty in Northeast Asia, and examined whether they would be useful for accelerating the process of institutionalizing regional peace and com- mon prosperity. In publishing the proceedings of the 4th Jeju Peace Forum, we would like to extend our gratitude to all the participants. We also would like to thank the co-hosts, organizers and co-sponsors for their generous support: the Jeju Special Self-Governing Province , the International Peace Foundation, the East Asia Foundation (co-hosts); the Jeju Peace Institute (organizer); the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, the Ministry of Information and Communication, the Ministry of Construction and Transportation, the Presidential Committee on Preface 7 Northeast Asian Cooperation Initiatives, Cheju National University, Jeju Free International City Development Center and the Jeju Develop- ment Institute (co-sponsors). We are also grateful for the last-minute efforts on the volume by Dr. Tae-Ryong Yoon, Dr. Bong-jun Ko, Dr. Seong-woo Yi, Prof. Douglas Hansen, Ms. Jeongseon Ko, and Mr. Ben Bong-Kyu Chun. We hope that the Jeju Peace Forum will continue to serve as a venue for leaders from the public and private sectors to jointly promote com- mon peace and prosperity on the Korean peninsula and throughout Northeast Asia.

  • Almanac January 12, 1993
    FOR COMMENT Penn’s International Dimensions For over two years, the University of Pennsylvania has been engaged in significant efforts to strengthen its position as an international university. The University’s 1990 Five-Year Plan (published in Almanac January 22, 1991) included a number of recommendations for coordinating and facilitating international programs at Penn. Most of the actions specifically recommended in that document have already been imple- mented: a Provost’s Council on International Programs has been in operation since October 1990; foreign language study is being promoted through several avenues; international area studies programs are being strengthened selectively; and undergraduate study abroad programs are being improved both in terms of quality and range of offerings. In addition to pursuing the recommendations made in the Five-Year Plan, the Uni- versity has affirmed its commitment to international activities by the establishment in July 1991 of an ad hoc Trustees’ Committee on Internationalization, charged with increasing Penn’s visibility and recognition as an international institution of higher education and re- search. During the 1991-92 academic year, this committee was guided in its deliberations by a comprehensive Factbook about International Programs at the University of Pennsyl- vania. Excerpts from the Factbook addressing “Area Studies at the University of Pennsyl- vania” and “International Programs of the University’s Twelve Schools” were reprinted in the March 24, 1992, edition of Almanac. The following summary is intended to further inform and engage the University community with respect to Penn’s international dimensions. Drawing upon the Factbook and several other sources, the overview presented here provides a current accounting of the University’s international activities in the following key areas: the international presence on the Penn campus; academic programs; special campus resources; University-wide link- ages; study abroad programs; and additional pursuits of the twelve schools.

  • The World and Japan's Foreign Policy in the Future: Prospects in 20 Years
    Preface This report summarizes the research findings of a research project conducted by the Japan Institute of International Affairs in fiscal 2010 titled “The World and Japan’s Foreign Policy in the Future: Prospects in 20 Years.” The guarantee of security through the Japan-US Security Treaty enabled Japan to achieve reconstruction and economic growth in the aftermath of the Second World War. As a major economic power, Japan has maintained its influence in international politics. In 2010, however, Japan lost its status as the world’s second largest economic power, as China overtook Japan in terms of gross domestic product. In addition, the Japan-US alliance, which forms the foundation of Japan’s security, carries with it daunting challenges, as evidenced by controversy over the relocation of the Marine Corps Air Station Futenma in Okinawa. Moving forward, with what identity and diplomatic strategy should Japan face the international community? This research project aims to make recommendations regarding the path and policies Japan should take in the future by looking back on Japan’s postwar diplomacy and planning the scenarios of the international situation in 20 years or so. The expected challenges Japan must tackle when considering the international situation surrounding the nation in 20 years’ time can largely be separated into the following two groups. The first group of challenges is characterized by changes in the balance of power. The rise of emerging nations such as China is expected to diminish the influence of the world’s only superpower, the United States, in relative terms. Such shift in power is expected to significantly change the framework of today’s international order.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract On 14 January 1963, French President General Charles de Gaulle shook the Western world. During a press conference, he announced that France was not only vetoing the British application to join the European Economic Community, but that it was also rejecting US President John F. Kennedy’s proposal to integrate the French nuclear force defrappe into the Multilateral Force. In the aftermath of the Algerian War, De Gaulle’s spectacular double non was meant to signal the shift to a more ambitious diplomatic agenda, which centred on the twin aims of recapturing France’s Great Power status, and striving to overcome the Cold War bipolar order. In the next five years, France placed itself at the forefront of international affairs through a series of bold initiatives that affected all areas of the world.
