  • Goldsmiths College University of London Locating Contemporary
    Goldsmiths College University of London Locating Contemporary South Korean Cinema: Between the Universal and the Particular Seung Woo Ha A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy to the department of Media and Communications January 2013 1 DECLARATION I, Seung Woo Ha confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed……………………….. Date…..…10-Jan-2013……… 2 ABSTRACT The thesis analyses contemporary South Korean films from the late 1980s up to the present day. It asks whether Korean films have produced a new cinema, by critically examining the criteria by which Korean films are said to be new. Have Korean films really changed aesthetically? What are the limitations, and even pitfalls in contemporary Korean film aesthetics? If there appears to be a true radicalism in Korean films, under which conditions does it emerge? Which films convey its core features? To answer these questions, the study attempts to posit a universalising theory rather than making particular claims about Korean films. Where many other scholars have focused on the historical context of the film texts’ production and their reception, this thesis privileges the film texts themselves, by suggesting that whether those films are new or not will depend on a film text’s individual mode of address. To explore this problem further, this study draws on the concept of ‘concrete universality’ from a Lacanian/Žižekian standpoint. For my purpose, it refers to examining how a kind of disruptive element in a film text’s formal structure obtrudes into the diegetic reality, thus revealing a cinematic ‘distortion’ in the smooth running of reality.

  • Leisure Port Development in the Incheon Area: Concepts and Benchmarks
    JOURNAL OF INTERNATIONAL LOGISTICS AND TRADE 5 Volume 2, Number I, 2004, pp. 5-45 Leisure Port Development in the Incheon Area: Concepts and Benchmarks Marc L. Miller' and Sung-Gwi Kim" ABSTRACT In concert with an ambitious national agenda that emphasizes free trade and globalization, lncheon Metropolitan City is taking the first steps toward reinventing itself to become a twenty-first century "Pentaport" with integrated Seaport, Airport, Technoport, Business Port, and Leisure Port components. The lncheon Pentaport transformation-projected to be complete by 2020-will entail significant industrial, sociological, and institutional modification. Leisure Port objectives can be achieved through responsible planning attuned to the ideal of sustainable development and by empirical studies of lncheon tourism and leisure dynamics. International benchmarks of leisure port success are found in Sydney, Australia; Vancouver, Canada; and San Diego, USA, among seven other cosmopolitan cities. Growth estimations for coastal ferry passengers; beach use; recreational vessels and yachts in the lncheon region are encouraging. lncheon Leisure Port development of ten amenity destinations will require equal and multidisciplinary attention to questions of tourism design and tourism impacts. Important issues will concern environmental quality, clean shipping practices, the proper balance of modem and traditional amenities and attractions, trade-offs of cultural homogeneity and cultural diversity, and creative destination branding and marketing, among others. Keywords: lncheon, Leisure, Leisure Port, Pentaport, Tourism, Sustainable Development.

  • Understanding How States View Strong and Weak Reputations
    TO DEFEND, OR NOT TO DEFEND: UNDERSTANDING HOW STATES VIEW STRONG AND WEAK REPUTATIONS A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Government By DongJoon Park, M.A. Washington DC July 14, 2020 Copyright 2020 by DongJoon Park All Rights Reserved ii TO DEFEND, OR NOT TO DEFEND: UNDERSTANDING HOW STATES VIEW STRONG AND WEAK REPUTATIONS DongJoon Park, M.A. Dissertation Adviser: David M. Edelstein, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Why do states back down during crises despite the risk of harming their reputation for resolve? The existing literature contends that leaders believe, perhaps more than they should, that cultivating a strong reputation for resolve is vital for their states’ national security as it enhances both their credibility and ability to deter threats. Based on this logic, the existing literature stipulates that states back down when actors care less about their reputation for resolve because these strategic advantages are absent or perceived to be irrelevant. In contrast, this dissertation contends that states and leaders may still decide to acquiesce during crises because of the long- term costs of saving face and the benefits of cultivating a ‘weaker’ reputation for resolve. Specifically, I propose the theory of moderate reputation for resolve and argue that two factors, fears of reputation races and greater emphasis on the process of negotiations rather than its outcomes, cause states to prefer moderate rather than strong reputation for resolve. States and leaders that reach this conclusion will be more likely to back down during crises as a way of managing their reputation.

  • South Korea Manages Globalization
    SOUTH KOREA MANAGES GLOBALIZATION: STRATEGIES OF SELF-DEFINITION AND CULTURAL PRESERVATION A Thesis by EVAN WILLIAM STEWART Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Chair of Committee, Cynthia Werner Committee Members, Norbert Dannhaeuser James Petrick Head of Department, Cynthia Werner May 2014 Major Subject: Anthropology Copyright 2014 Evan William Stewart ABSTRACT The nation of South Korea transitioned from being one of the poorest countries worldwide to becoming the 15th largest economy. South Korea has attempted to manage globalization by actively developing and supporting cultural based entertainment, such as film and music while also promoting cultural and historical preservation, such as elements of the Han brand and other traditional and national elements. This study counters views against theoretical frameworks of cultural imperialism and particularly media imperialism. Theories of cultural and media imperialism delineate globalization as the hegemonic takeover by American popular culture, which can lead to various forms of cultural demise in non-Western countries. However, this does not seem to be the case for South Korea. Instead, I argue that South Korea has successfully managed globalization, guarding against Western hegemony and has not succumbed to American cultural or media imperialism. This paper’s methodology uses a combination of primary and secondary sources. As a result, two main strategies have been identified in this paper’s thesis which account for South Korea’s success, both of which are endorsed by governmental support and cultural policy: self-definition and cultural preservation. Self- definition entails the global and local proliferation of South Korea’s cultural industry, which primarily encompasses South Korean film and music (K-Pop).
