Manufacture has acquired new and advanced materials, and daily contrives new inventions and devises new products. Biotechnology is increasing food production with genetically altered plants and animals, and soon, meat not taken from butchered animals but grown from stem cells. Production is no longer bounded by the limitations of human labor; electrical and nuclear energy power the machines and robots shape materials and assemble cars, jet airplanes, computers, and soon everything. Nanotechnology is beginning to assemble molecules atom by atom, on the way to manufacture computer circuitry out of sand, gold out of lead, even living cells out of atoms. We see ourselves beginning an essentially new kind of human existence, acquiring a new nature— postevolutionary, transhuman. We are awed, fascinated, but also bewildered by the prospect with an abundance beyond all our needs and desires; how shall we deal with it? We are watching extraordinary advances in biotechnology, which promise not only to cure and prevent diseases and correct defects, but, with pharmaceuticals, gene therapy and nanotechnology, to endow our bodies and our minds with greater and also new capacities.

  • Hallyu at a Crossroads: the Clash of Korea's Soft Power Success and China's Hard Power Threat in Light of Terminal High
    Asian International Studies Review Vol. 18 No.1 (June 2017): 153-169 153 Received March 15, 2017 Revised May 10, 2017 Accepted May 20, 2017 Hallyu at a Crossroads: The Clash of Korea’s Soft Power Success and China’s Hard Power Threat in Light of Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) System Deployment HANNAH JUN* The past two decades have witnessed the remarkable success of Hallyu, or the Korean Wave, with Korea welcoming a large influx of foreign visitors and benefiting from massive consumption of products ranging from Korean television and film, K-pop and lifestyle products. A more recent announcement by CJ E&M points to an even more aggressive plan for regional ubiquity, as encapsulated by Hallyu 4.0. Simultaneously, we have already felt some of the effect of policy changes in China – a core Hallyu market – as a response to Korea’s plan to deploy a Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system. In this sense, we see the stirrings of a clash between Korean soft power and Chinese hard power, and are uncertain who will emerge on top. This paper examines the broad success of Hallyu from key theoretical perspectives, while addressing linkages between Korean corporations and cultural power/influence that have led to an announcement such as Hallyu 4.0. This paper also highlights the recent tensions between Korea and China, specifically with respect to THAAD deployment, and outlines potential implications for businesses and policymakers through preliminary scenarios.

  • Report from Sister City Delegation to Gongju, Republic of Korea
    Page 1 of 8 INFORMATION CALENDAR October 29, 2019 To: Members of the City Council From: Mayor Jesse Arreguin and Councilmember Rigel Robinson Subject: Report from Sister City Delegation to Gongju, Republic of Korea INTRODUCTION In the spring of 2017, a delegation which included officials from Gongju, South Korea, and local Korean American leaders met with the Mayor’s Office regarding the establishment of Sister City relations. Gongju is located in the central South Korea and is home to the Kongju National University, and has a population of similar size to Berkeley. The Gongju city government was interested in expanding partnerships with UC Berkeley, increasing exposure for students and residents to American culture and establishing stronger ties to American officials. In October 2017, the previous Mayor of Gongju visited Berkeley to discuss establishing a formal Sister City partnership. On February 27, 2018, the Berkeley City Council approved the establishment of a Sister City with Gongju, Republic of Korea. To formalize the Sister City relationship, the current Mayor of Gongju, Kim Jeong-seob invited the Mayor to visit the City of Gongju to sign the Sister City Agreement and to meet with officials. Mayor Arreguin, Councilmember Robinson and staff in the Mayor’s office visited Korea from September 25th – 29th, 2019, including visiting Gongju to sign the Sister City Agreement, meet with Gongju officials, and participate in the Baekje Cultural Festival. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS $4,583.93 from the Discretionary Office Budgets of Mayor Arreguin and Councilmember Robinson. These costs covered airfare, food, and transportation.
