It was inevitable, then, that 2010 would be an important year for scholarship on the Japanese colonisation of Korea. In response to this momentous anniversary, Cipango – Cahiers d’études japonaises launched a call for papers on the subject of Japan’s colonial past in the spring of 2009. 2 Why colonisation in general and not specifically relating to Korea? Because it seemed logical to the journal’s editors that Korea would be the focus of increased attention from specialists of East Asia, at the risk of potentially forgetting the longer—and more obscure—timeline of the colonisation process.

  • Detachment Instead of Confrontation: Post-European Russia in Search of Self-Sufficiency
    Detachment Instead of Confrontation: Post-European Russia in Search of Self-Sufficiency Alexei Miller, Fyodor Lukyanov The report was written by Alexei Miller, Professor at European University in St. Petersburg and Central European University in Budapest; Fyodor lukyAnov, Editor-in-Chief of the Russia in Global Affairs magazine and a Research Professor at the National Research University-Higher School of Economics. Alexei Miller, Fyodor Lukyanov Along with all the complexes of a superior nation, Russia has the great inferiority complex of a small country. Joseph Brodsky Less Than One, 1976 “Our eagle, the heritage of Byzantium, is a two-headed one. Of course, eagles with one head are strong and powerful as well, but if you cut off the head of our eagle which is turned to the East, you will not turn him into a one-headed eagle, you will only make him bleed.” Russian Prime Minister Pyotr Stolypin, from the speech in the State Duma in support of the construction of the Amur Railway, 1908 This project originated in 2015 when intellectual interaction between Russia and the West was rapidly degrading to mutual accusations and verbal fights over “who is to blame” and “how much more Russia should suffer before it is ready to repent.” We sought to provide a forum for analysts and political practitioners from Russia, Europe, the United States, and China to con- duct a constructive dialogue and ultimately move from producing endless recriminations and claims to discussing the future of Russia’s role in international affairs. Naturally, this also meant discussing the future of the world as a whole.

Our nation has never been more divided, more war- stricken, more fearful of the future. Yet, the promise and the greatness of Russia remains undaunted. The Russian Provisional Government can and will overcome these challenges and lead our Motherland into the dawn of a new day. Out of character. To introduce myself, I’m a fourth-year Economics and History double major, currently writing a BA thesis on World War II rationing in the United States.

Besides that, I am the VP of the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity, previously a member of an all-men a cappella group and a proud procrastinator. This letter, for example, is about a month late. We decided to run this committee for a multitude of reasons, but I personally think that Russian in 1917 represents such a critical point in history. In an unlikely way, the most autocratic regime on Earth became replaced with a socialist state. The story of this dramatic shift in government and ideology represents, to me, one of the most interesting parts of history: that sometimes facts can be stranger than fiction.

  • Russia's Great Power Identity on Its Bumpy Journey Through Time
    CEEISA-ISA Joint International Conference Anatoly Reshetnikov 23-25 June 2016, Ljubljana Central European University _____________________________________________________________________________________ Russia’s great power identity on its bumpy journey through time. Introduction Recently, Russia has been talking a lot about being a great power.1 In fact, it has even insisted that such a state like Russia had to either be a great power, or not be at all.2 In the western discourse, the term ‘great power’ immediately evokes unambiguous connotations. Namely, it is believed to be related to some privileged status in the international system. This status is associated either with a claim to be one of a few real policy-makers (as neorealists have argued),3 or with a claim for some rights and responsibilities in relation to the management of international order (as has been suggested by the English School of IR).4 Hence, it is those specifically IR-related associations that Russian great power rhetoric elicited in the west. Most observers perceived it as a question of foreign policy. Yet, if one looks carefully enough, it becomes obvious that Russia’s great power discourse does not operate the way the western observers expect it operate. On the one hand, when Russia talks about being a great power, it often places itself in a strong opposition to the rest of the great power club and shows its clear dissatisfaction with the existing international order.5 As a result, it is perceived by the west as an unpredictable trouble-maker rather than a great power in the English School’s terms.

  • Korea, Focus of Russo-Japanese Diplomacy
    KOREA, FOCUS OF RUSSO-JAPANESE DIPLOMACY ( 1898-1903) I. H. NISH THE ABORTIVE NEGOTIATIONS WHICH PRECEDED THE RUSSO-JAP­ anese war, began in August 1903. In the previous five years, negotiations of a desultory kind had been going over Manchuria and K01;ea which have not received a systematic treatment from historians; it is the aim of this paper to examine them. 1 When Russia took a lease of the Liaotung peninsula in March 1898, the world expected Japan, which had formerly occupied it, to protest vehemently. Instead, the Japanese accepted the fait accompli since the Russians had offer­ ed them a settlement of the Korean question by way of the Nishi-Rosen agree­ ment which put the interests of the two countries on an equal footing within a nominally independent Korea. When, however, the Russians were attempting in 1899 and 1900 to get a lease at Masampo, which was one of the finest har­ bors in the Far East (within 160 miles of Japan's shores), the Japanese opposed them tooth and nail. They were ultimately unsuccessful but they showed that they were determined to protect their position in southern Korea.2 With the outbreak of the Boxer disturbances in May 1900, the Russians were forced to ease out of Korea to concentrate on north China and Man­ churia, where they were having trouble safeguarding their railway lines. In these circumstances, Japan took a surprising initiative. The new Japanese Mi­ nister to Russia, Komura Jutaro, found Lamsdorf, who became Foreign Mi- 1 The most illuminating works in Rus~ian are still B.A.

  • Theodore Roosevelt and the Portsmouth Peace Conference: the Riddle and Ripple of His Forbearance
    4 Theodore Roosevelt and the Portsmouth Peace Conference: the Riddle and Ripple of His Forbearance MATSUMURA MASAYOSHI n the summer heat of 1905, the peace negotiations between Russian Iand Japanese plenipotentiaries were being held across a large table at the Portsmouth Naval Base, New Hampshire. Talks had progressed in fits and starts with some animated debate, but now on 10 August, during the very first week of the conference, they appeared to be heading for deadlock. The possibility of finding a resolution rested on two key issues, the payment of a reimbursement rather than an indemnity and the par- tition of Sakhalin. At this critical juncture, the US president Theodore Roosevelt, who had been instrumental in bringing the two sides together, feared that the situation might deteriorate still further and that the talks could break down altogether. On 19 August, he invited the Russian plenipotentiary, Roman Rosen, to his house at Sagamore Hill in Oyster Bay on the outskirts of New York and set about directly brokering a peace agreement by calling on the Russians to make concessions to Japan. This attempt at mediation began in earnest two days later on 21 August after Baron Kaneko Kentaro, a member of the House of Peers, visited Roosevelt at his house to find out the import of his conversation with Rosen.1 That evening, having heard Kaneko’s opinion, Roosevelt sent a telegram to George von Lengerke Meyer, the US ambassador in St Petersburg, instructing him to present a personal message on his behalf to the tsar and persuade him to achieve a peace settlement by making concessions to Japan.

  • Resolving the Russo-Japanese War of 1905
    ODUMUNC 2014 Issue Brief for the Historical Crisis Committee (HCC) Resolving the Russo-Japanese War of 1905 By: Brenden Cooley Old Dominion University, Model United Nations Society Introduction In what historians often refer to as ‘the first great war of the 20th century’ or ‘World War Zero,’ the Empire of Japan and the Empire of Russia set the stage for the warfare and its industrial and economic implications for the rest of the century. Japan, physically insignificant compared to the sheer landmass of the Russian Empire, would challenge the enormous nation over a land dispute and show the West what it was capable of. The enormous nation of China became a battleground as great powers fought for dominance, the future of Asia and the world. Figure 1. The East Asian Cockpit: China, Japan (including Korea) and Russia The official beginning of the war came as a shock to the Russian Empire, who had recently assigned a fleet to the newly acquired city of Port Arthur. On February 8th, 1904, without any declaration of war, two Japanese fleets preemptively struck the harbor of Port Arthur, breaking the Western ‘rules of war’ and setting the Russian military on its heels. While not a necessarily effective strike, the Japanese Empire proved to the Russians that the laws of conventional warfare would not apply to this unexpected enemy.

ODUMUNC 2014 Issue Brief for the HCC Another benefit of this surprise attack allowed a separate fleet of Japanese ships to occupy a major section of the Korean peninsula, which would serve to fortify their troops in later land battles.

  • Russia's Policy Towards Korea During the Russo-Japanese
    International Journal of Korean History(Vol.7, Feb.2005) 29 Russia’s Policy Towards Korea during the Russo-Japanese War Park Bella* The period between the end of the 19th and early 20th centuries was one which saw Russia and Japan come into conflict with one another in East Asia. However, because of its economic and financial problems and of its inferior military numbers in the Fareast, the Russian government was unable to use the opportunity provided by the period leading up to the Russo-Japanese War to put in place the preparations needed to resolve the Korean peninsula problem in a manner advantageous to it. Further compounding matters was the fact that no common perception emerged amongst Russian policymakers with regards to the direction which East Asian policy should take. On one hand the Russian Finance Minister Sergei Witte and his followers wanted to adopt a ‘peaceful’ course of action that would allow Russia to extend its economic hegemony over Korea and all of East Asia. Meanwhile, another more influential group consisting of conservative forces adhered to a stance which was based on an aggressive policy towards East Asia, a stance which was for the most part in line with that of Tsar Nicholas II. Because its nominal leader was A.M. Bezobrazov, this group is usually referred to as the Bezobrazov group. The significant influence which this group wielded over Russian foreign policy emerged as an important cause of what would become a turning point in Korean history and Russo-Korean relations, namely, the * Senior Research fellow, Institute of Oriental Studies Russian Academy of Science in Moscow 30 Russia’s Policy Towards Korea during the Russo-Japanese War outbreak of the Russo-Japanese War.

Reeglina juhtub seda pidukõnedes ja -tekstides, vähem akadeemilistes aruteludes.

  • Romanov News Новости Романовых
    Romanov News Новости Романовых By Paul Kulikovsky №86 May 2015 Celebrations of the birthday of Emperor Nicholas II Emperor Nicholas II was born 18 May (Old style 6 May) 1868, as the eldest son of the Tsarevich Alexander Alexandrovich, later Emperor Alexander III the Peacemaker, and his wife Maria Feodorovna. He was the last Emperor of Russia, Grand Duke of Finland, and titular King of Poland. His official short title was Tsar Nicholas II, Emperor and Autocrat of All the Russias. In 1981 he was canonized as a martyr by the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia. This led to the canonization of Nicholas II, his wife Empress Alexandra and their children as passion bearers - a title commemorating believers who face death in a Christ-like manner - on 15 August 2000 by the Russian Orthodox Church. About Emperor Nicholas II.... "In order to understand Emperor Nicholas II, you have to be Orthodox. It is no good being secular or nominally Orthodox, semi-Orthodox, ‘hobby Orthodox’ and retaining your unconverted cultural baggage, whether Soviet or Western – which is essentially the same thing. You have to be consistently Orthodox, consciously Orthodox, Orthodox in your essence, culture and world view. In other words, you have to have spiritual integrity – exactly as the Emperor had, in order to understand him. Emperor Nicholas was profoundly and systematically Orthodox in his spiritual, moral, political, economic and social outlook. His Orthodox soul looked out on the world through Orthodox eyes and acted in an Orthodox way, with Orthodox reflexes. So we too have to be Orthodox in order to understand him.
