Close Encounters of the Nonnuclear Kind: the North Korean Public Relations Campaign in U.S
International Journal of Communication 14(2020), 1353–1375 1932–8036/20200005 Close Encounters of the Nonnuclear Kind: The North Korean Public Relations Campaign in U.S. Media of the 1970s RIA CHAE1 University of Pennsylvania, USA Seeking to add a missing, nonviolent page to the history of U.S.–North Korea relations, this study examines Pyongyang’s initiatives in the area of public relations. It systematically organizes North Korea–related material from five major U.S. newspapers to reconstruct a complex public relations campaign that North Korea implemented during the 1970s through the U.S. media. The campaign was similar to those of other developing countries in its objective of gaining U.S. attention and influencing its policy making through mass media, but it differed from them in the intentional projection of a belligerent image. An analysis of frequency and contents of the coverage of North Korea as well as related policy debates demonstrates that the campaign enjoyed a qualified success. Although it did not lead to U.S. adoption of specific policies desired by North Korea, it helped a peripheral North Korea break through the hierarchies of information flows. Keywords: U.S.–North Korea relations, 1970s, public relations, U.S. media, international information order The history of North Korea’s relations with the United States is always viewed through the prism of military confrontations and security crises. With the Korean War (1950–1953), the interaction got off on the wrong foot—or, to borrow an old Korean expression, missing the very first button, the entire dress was fastened wrong. -
SHAD 20 Dot 1 Book
The Social History of Alcohol and Drugs 20 (2005): 66-104. Opiate Addiction and the Entanglements of Imperialism and Patriarchy in Manchukuo, 1932-45 Norman Smith Abstract. In the Japanese colonial state of Manchukuo, opiate addiction was condemned by officials and critics alike. But the state-sponsored creation of a monopoly, opium laws, and rehabilitation programs failed to reduce rates of addiction. Further, official media condemnation of opiate addiction melded with local Chinese-language literature to stigmatise addiction, casting a nega- tive light over the state’s failure to realise its own anti-opiate agenda. Chinese writers were thus transfixed in a complex colonial environment in which they applauded measures to reduce harm to the local population while levelling critiques of Japanese colonial rule. This paper demonstrates how the Chinese- language literature of Manchukuo did not simply parrot official policies. It also delegitimised Japanese rule through opiate narratives that are gendered, consistently negative, and more critical of the state than might be expected in a colonial literature. …This sacrifice is truly terrifying You’ve turned your life’s blood to mud The price is far too high. If it were your lover You’d have to let it go. It goes without saying that your enemy/lover Is also my enemy/lover… Jie yan ge [Get Off Opium Song]1 In 1942, Li Xianglan (b. 1920), the most famous entertainer in the Japanese colonial state of Manchukuo (1932-45), sang the Jie yan ge to decry the “truly terrifying” cost of the “enemy/lover” Norman Smith is Assistant Professor of History at University of Guelph. -

Urban Chinese Perspectives on the U.S. Occupation of Japan, 1945-1947
URBAN CHINESE PERSPECTIVES ON THE U.S. OCCUPATION OF JAPAN, 1945-1947 ADAM CATHCART HIRAM COLLEGE Most things in China have deep historical roots, and the current phenomenon of anti-Japanese sentiment among urban elites in China is no exception. The increasing numbers of affluent middle-class Chinese populating cities today, like the intelligentsia of the late 1940s, view Japanese resurgence as both inevitable and worthy of loud denunciation. In the late 1940s, these elites expressed concerns over China’s inconclusive victory and voiced anxieties about “the New Japan” emerging under American tutelage. While the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has since fed upon anti-Japanese anger to augment the Party’s legitimacy, the CCP was neither the creator nor the sole exploiter of anti-Japanese nationalism. While today’s CCP may apply a more malleable approach to the memories of World War II, in the late 1940s, Japan’s military fate lay squarely in the hands of General Douglas MacArthur, whose depictions in the Chinese press led to a perception that Japan and the U.S. were jointly dismissive of China’s sacrifices in the War of Resistance. Finally, the pall of depression that descended across China along with the civil war was inherently related to Japan’s slow yet nevertheless phoenix-like postwar rise. Blaming Japan and the United States for China’s ills was a logical response to an environment that harshly contradicted what was supposed to have been China’s ascent into global respectability, even leadership. The attitude adopted toward Japan in the Chinese press from 1945-1947 thus reveals significant continuity with today’s attitudes; that Chinese are still grappling with similar issues today speaks to Japan’s immense power in the Chinese imagination. -

Decolonization, Race, and Cold War Politics in U.S.-Japan-Korea Relations, 1945-1952
CRUCIBLE OF THE POST-EMPIRE: DECOLONIZATION, RACE, AND COLD WAR POLITICS IN U.S.-JAPAN-KOREA RELATIONS, 1945-1952 A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Deokhyo Choi August 2013 © 2013 Deokhyo Choi CRUCIBLE OF THE POST-EMPIRE: DECOLONIZATION, RACE, AND COLD WAR POLITICS IN U.S.-JAPAN-KOREA RELATIONS, 1945-1952 Deokhyo Choi, Ph. D. Cornell University 2013 This dissertation is a synthesis of social, political, and international histories of decolonization in Korea and Japan. My study demonstrates how the liberation of Korea became a foundational historical event not only for the colonized but also for metropolitan society. Despite the recent emphasis on the need to treat the metropole and colony as one analytical field, scholars have yet to approach decolonization as a mutually constitutive process that restructures both the metropole and the colony. The fields of Area Studies and International History often divide their focus on the regional aftermath of the Japanese empire into separate national units of analysis, resulting in histories split between the U.S. and Soviet occupations of Korea (1945- 1948) and the U.S. (Allied) occupation of Japan (1945-1952). In a radical departure from the more nation-centered scholarship, my work treats post-empire Japan and Korea, U.S. occupation policy in Japan and Korea, and Japanese and South Korean anti-Communist regimes as one analytical field. In order to maintain a focused line of inquiry through the complexity of the decolonizing world, I position the Korean postcolonial population in Japan, or the so-called “Korean minority question,” as a primary methodological site in my work. -

This thesis aims to elucidate the ways in which racial ideologies, in conjunction with gendered nationalist ideologies, materialized in the spaces of military base communities. I contend that camptowns were hybrid spaces where the meaning and representation of race were constantly in flux, where the very definitions of race and gender were contested, affirmed, and redefined through ongoing negotiations on the part of relevant actors. The reading of camptown prostitutes and American GIs as sexualized and racialized bodies will provide a nuanced understanding of the power dynamics unique to camptown communities. The first part of this study consists of a discussion of Korean ethnic nationalism and its complementary relation to U.S. -

The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. In accordance with the Regulations, I have deposited an electronic copy of it in LSE Theses Online held by the British Library of Political and Economic Science and have granted permission for my thesis to be made available for public reference. Otherwise, this thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 88,115 words. 2 Abstract This thesis looks at American press coverage of the rise of authoritarian rule in South Korea between 1945 and 1954, during the period of the American occupation government and the first six years of the Syngman Rhee regime. Making use of government, military and press archives, it is the first scholarly analysis of how the American press wrote about the early political development of South Korea and explores the question of why political repression under both the occupation and the Rhee regime did not receive greater attention from American journalists. -
