  • New Political Economy of East Asia: Korean Perspective
    New Political Economy of East Asia: Korean Perspective Jaymin Lee (Yonsei University) [email protected] Abstract This paper first examines the effects of the rise of Chinese economy on Korean economic development and Korea’s policy to deal with them. The paper then investigates the Korean perception of the problem of emerging economic integration and political conflict in East Asia and Korea’s strategy to cope with the problem. Emphasis is given to comparative historical perspective. I. Introduction With the rise of the China, Korea faces two major (inter-related) challenges: • Finding new development strategy • Finding Korea’s Place in the international political economy II. China Shock and Korea’s Development Strategy Rise of China a mixed blessing for Korea economically. • China now the largest export market (21.8% in 2005, 27.2% if Hong Kong is added), far surpassing the US (14.5%). China the source of the largest trade surplus. • On the other hand, Chinese exports increasingly competing with Korean goods, and Chinese imports pushing up the price of raw materials in the global market. As a result, Korea’s terms of trade deteriorates, and that reduces the growth rate of national income, by as much as 1.4% points on average from 1996 to 2005 (GDP growth rate 4.5%, GNI growth rate 3.1%). • Korea also has to compete ever more intensively with China to induce investment (even by domestic firms), which is no longer confined to investment by smaller firms in labor intensive manufacturing industries. China by far the largest destination of Korean FDI overseas.

The tradition of all the dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brain of the living. Karl Marx, The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte (1852) This course provides an analytical overview of the comparative politics of East Asia, focusing on Northeast Asia (China, Taiwan, Korea, and Japan) with some emphasis on Southeast Asia. This course has at least three goals: 1) to understand important political issues, political institutions, political behaviors, contentious politics, and political economies of East Asia, 2) to provide a theoretical framework to understand important historical events that have shaped the current politics of East Asia, and 3) to overcome an ethnocentric provincialism by making explicit and implicit comparisons (e.g., China, Korean and Japan; East Asia and Euro-America). To do so, this course is divided into three parts. In Part I, we will begin with a session that equips students with a theoretical framework of comparative politics and introduces this region more generally. By focusing on the modern capital- nation-state formation in the context of colonialism and imperialism, the following sessions in Part I will provide significant historical facts and issues of China, Taiwan, Korea, Japan, and Southeast Asian countries to properly understand the substantive topics in the following parts.

Earthquakes occur where the plates that compose the earth’s surface meet. The Pacific Ocean is defined by these meeting places, and thus surrounded by regions subject to earthquakes and vulcanism. The emerging market financial crises of 1997/98 – of which Asia’s crisis was both a trigger and a major component – similarly erupted when what were then the two most powerful economies in the world collided with each other as well as with what were then surprisingly dynamic local economies. America and Japan each sought to impose its vision of proper economic policy on dependent economies in East Asia; each sought to make its influence permanent by shaping a network of public and private institutions; each sought solutions to its own internal economic problems. Meanwhile Southeast Asian states and elites were looking for ways to sustain a quarter century of rapid growth in the face China’s emergence as the premier low wage exporter.

  • Taiwan and the New Regional Political Economy of East Asia
    Paper presented at the First European Association of Taiwan Studies Conference, SOAS, London, 17-18 April 2004 Taiwan and the New Regional Political Economy of East Asia Christopher M. Dent University of Leeds, UK [email protected] 1. Introduction Since the 1997/1998 financial crisis, important developments have occurred in East Asia’s regional economic relations. Two trends are especially noteworthy. The first of these is the establishment of the ASEAN Plus Three (APT) framework, involving the ten member states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN)1 plus Japan, China and South Korea. The APT represents the first formalised, summit-based and exclusively East Asian economic grouping yet operationalised. It has mainly focused on developing new mechanisms of regional financial governance, thus working to avert another regional financial crisis and generally attempt to better manage East Asia’s growing regional economic interdependence. The second regional trend concerns the proliferation of (mainly bilateral) free trade agreements (FTAs) in East Asia and the Asia Pacific. The ASEAN-China FTA has especially generated much interest, as have the various FTA projects of Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Thailand and other East Asian states. Together, the expanding web of FTAs in the region and the fast evolving APT framework are having profound effects on the calculus of East Asia’s regional economic relations. Taiwan’s position in these developments has been relatively marginal. China’s contestation of Taiwan’s politico-diplomatic legitimacy has significantly narrowed its FTA options and the chance of ever becoming a full APT member. This paper makes a study of * This paper is partly based on research funded by an ESRC grant (award number: R000 223 715).

  • Macintyre & Naughton Remapping #4
    The Decline of a Japan-led Model of the East Asian Economy Andrew MacIntyre & Barry Naughton* Revised October 15, 2002 * We thank Peter Drysdale, Ross Garnaut, Stephan Haggard and T.J. Pempel for very helpful critiques of earlier drafts of this paper, and Pablo Pinto for research assistance. Andrew MacIntyre is Director of the Asia-Pacific School of Economics and Government at the Australian National University, and Barry Naughton is Professor in the Graduate School of International Relations and Pacific Studies at the University of California, San Diego. 1 The dynamism of the Asian economies since the 1950s not only implies rapid growth, it also implies continuous change in the economic relations among East Asian countries. In this paper we map the changing interests of three key East Asian countries with respect to the main economic issues, and explore the way in which those perceived interests shape what those countries have sought to achieve from regional economic cooperation. Specifically, we focus on the interaction between changes within national political economies and changes in the wider regional economy, and the effect these two variables have on had on government-to-government economic cooperation in Asia. Our aim is to describe and explain what we see as a basic shift in the pattern of economic and economic cooperation in East Asia. The established wisdom about both economic integration in East Asia and government-to-government economic cooperation has been informed by the wave of literature produced in the 1990s that sought to make sense of the remarkable developments in the region in the early part of that decade and the latter part of the preceding decade.
