  • South Korea's Engagement in Central Asia
    South Korea’s Engagement in Central Asia from the End of the Cold War to the “New Asia Initiative” Matteo Fumagalli Central European University The Journal of Northeast Asian History Volume 9 Number 2 (Winter 2012), 69-97 Copyright © 2012 by the Northeast Asian History Foundation. All Rights Reserved. No portion of the contents may be reproduced in any form without written permission of the Northeast Asian History Foundation. South Korea’s Engagement in Central Asia from the End of the Cold War to the “New Asia Initiative” This paper examines South Korea’s engagement in Central Asia as a case study of the country’s broader efforts to establish itself as a more assertive regional and global economic and political player. Embedding the analysis in the account of the evolving nature of Korean-Central Asian relations over the past two decades, the paper locates Korea’s policy towards the region within its attempts to tackle energy vulnerability. Without the “political baggage” that accompanies the presence of other major players, Korea’s economically-driven country-specific strategy is yielding significant results. Keywords: Central Asia, Korea’s foreign policy, diaspora, identity, trade, energy, investment South Korea’s Engagement in Central Asia from the End of the Cold War to the “New Asia Initiative” Matteo Fumagalli Central European University Introduction In the early 1990s South Korea quickly dislodged the ties that North Korea had with the Soviet successor states, which were a legacy of earlier Soviet-North Korean relations. Those ties, of course, included relations with the Central Asian republics of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan.

Alfonso Kim, Gon 유 영 찬 호세피나 비 알폰소 김 곤 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Abstract Dosan Seowon, one of the earliest and most prestigious private Confucian academies in Korea, is an example of a heritage property citizens wish to sustain for the benefit of future generations. It is recognized of its contribution to the Korean society and as an architectural and historical interest. This study conducts architectural and cultural research about Dosan Seowon by scrutinizing its evidential, historical, aesthetic and spatial values. By doing so, it is possible to recognize how appreciated qualities are vulnerable to harm through only understanding their heritage values without practical management solutions. That understanding should then provide the basis for developing and implementing management strategies (including maintenance, cyclical renewal and repair) that will best sustain the heritage values in a physical aspect. The conclusion suggests that communication about Dosan Seowon among those who are concerened is significant. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Keywords : Dosan Seowon, spatial values, heritage values, historical importance, management strategies 키워드 : 도산서원, 공간가치, 문화유산, 역사적 중요성, 관리기법 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 1.
