This thesis mainly uses official archival documents from both governments to study their high-level diplomacy and policy-making. In 1895, when Britain and Korea faced the change of the international order of Northeast Asia as a consequence of the First Sino-Japanese War, both nations shared that Korean independence would be desirable for their interests. However, both countries had different approaches to achieve it. Britain preferred the self-strengthening and the modernisation of the Korean administration, whereas Korea focused on diplomacy due to its incapacity to oppose foreign aggression by its own forces. Therefore, Anglo-Korean relations gradually deteriorated through a series of political crises in Korea and eventually reached a point where Britain gave up its hope in Korean independence. Meanwhile, Korea became a new battlefield for rivalry between Russia and Japan. Having confronted Russian advance together, Britain and Japan found that they shared the same interests in Korea. By 1900, both countries closely worked together to deter any Russian attempts to obtain concessions on the Korean Peninsula, which would potentially damage their interests in the region. Afterwards, British and Japanese representatives in Seoul worked not only for the defence of their shared interests, but also for the other’s own interests in the country. Thus, when the Russo- Japanese War broke out, British Legation in Korea helped Japan facilitate the occupation of Korea and eventually agreed with Japan’ establishment of a protectorate over Korea. 7 8 Acknowledgement My Ph.D. programme was a long and lonely journey and I could not have finished this without assistance and support from other individuals and organisations. First of all, I would like to thank all academic and administrative staff members of the School of East Asian Studies, University of Sheffield. I was able to have completed the course and become a better researcher thanks to their help at every step. I am especially grateful of my supervisors Dr. Hiro Watanabe and Dr. Markus Bell for their excellent intelligence and warm support. I especially thank Professor Seung-Young Kim, who supervised my doctoral research from the beginning and helped me shape my research with his expertise in Korean History and International History. I would also like to thank my master’s supervisor Dr. Antony Best at the London School of Economics who interested me in the field of International History and Asian History particularly in the Age of Imperialism. My journey to become a dedicated historian started at the Department of Asian History (now the Department of History) at Korea University, Seoul, where I could fortunately learn and study under the teaching and guidance of excellent professors Min Kyoung-Hyun, Cho Myung-Chul, Park Won- Ho, Kim Taek-min, You Hee-Soo, Kim Kyung-Hyun, Shin Seung-Ha, Lee Sang-Sin and Lee Chun-Sik. Thanks to them, I learned the joy of understanding humanity through history. Not many friends or classmates from the History Department continued studying at a Ph.D. level so there were some difficult times when other people could not really understand what I had been doing with my research programme, which made me feel lonely and isolated. It was always other Ph.D. students and colleagues that encouraged and put me back on track. I would like to thank Dr. Li Qiunan for being such an amazing friend and inspiring colleague. One of privileges I had during my Ph.D. programme was meeting many young talented researchers from across the world. I sincerely hope I can be a valuable part of this network in the near future. I must say thank Dale Kitchen for helping me overcome very tough times I had to face while doing my Ph.D. programme. In the end, it was valuable time to look back at myself and try to become a better person, but I could not have done it without her help. Finally, it was all possible thanks to love and support from my parents and my wife, Myunghae Seo. They were always besides me when I had this long journey and the ones who congratulated and celebrated the most. 9 10 Introduction In the middle of the 19th century, Northeast Asian states had to cope with an unprecedented threat: Western Powers. For centuries, the international politics of Northeast Asia was based on Sino-centric world order, where a Chinese Empire claimed the Mandate of Heaven and placed itself above every known nation in the world. Those other countries must recognise the Chinese Empire’s nominal suzerainty to partake in the China-led international network of trade and diplomacy. Britain was one of many other countries who eagerly hoped to trade with China. In 1793, King George II appointed George Macartney as the first ever envoy to Qing China in hope of establishing a legation in Beijing and gaining access to more Chinese ports than just Guangzhou, the only Chinese city where Western merchants were allowed to visit and trade. Qianlong Emperor, who only saw Britain’s Macartney Mission as an envoy of tribute who should recognise Qing China’s traditional suzerainty, declined Britain’s requests for the relaxation of trade and the concession of a territory for the residence of British merchants.1 Britain eventually achieved the objectives – the relaxation of trade and the concession of Hong Kong Island – in 1842, after their victory over Qing China in the First Opium War of 1839-1842 obtained further privileges, including the opening of more treaty ports and missionaries’ rights to travel freely, after winning in the Second Opium War of 1856-1860.2 Meanwhile, Japan also faced a challenge from a Western Power demanding an end to Japan’s long-lasting isolation. American Commodore Matthew Calbraith Perry, whose mission was the establishment of a diplomatic relationship between Japan and the United States, led his fleet to Edo Bay in 1853 and 1854. After a series of hostile presentations and continuous threats to achieve the objective by violent means, The Kamakura Shogunate signed the Convention of Kanagawa, Japan’s first unequal treaty with the Western Power which included several privileges such as most favourable nation clause and extraterritorial jurisdiction. It eventually led to the signing of the 1 For an account of Macartney Mission, see James Louis Hevia, Cherishing Men from Afar: Qing Guest Ritual and the Macartney Embassy of 1793 (Durham, N.C.; London: Duke University Press, 1995). 2 For an account of the Opium Wars and the opening of Qing China, see James Louis Hevia, English Lessons: The Pedagogy of Imperialism in Nineteenth-century China (Durham, N.C.; London: Hong Kong: Duke University Press; Hong Kong University Press, 2003); John K.

Unlike China or Japan, Korea managed to defend its nation from two western invasions; Pyŏnginyangyo (The French Invasion of 1866) and Shinmiyangyo (The American Invasion of 1871).4 Neither country succeeded in negotiating a treaty with Korea because both Powers only expected to impose a military threat in hope that Korea would voluntarily give up further resistance and accept the offered deal. However, when Japanese gunboat ‘Un'yō’ deliberately entered the Korean water near Kanghwa Island and attacked fortresses on the island in 1875, Japan coerced that Korea should come to a negotiation table or Japanese troops would march towards Seoul, the capital of Korea. Therefore, Korea was forced to sign the Treaty of Kanghwa of 1876, Korea’s first treaty with any foreign country. Considering the fact that it was Japan that forcefully opened Korea to the outer world for the first time in 1876 and eventually annexed the country later in 1910, it may seem as Japan’s consistent penetration and colonisation of Korea in this period between 1876 and 1910. However, international pressure and domestic unrest, caused by the modernisation and the Westernisation of the country, often initiated political crises that dramatically changed the balance of foreign influence and even dragged them into the domestic politics of Korea. Japan’s penetration into Korea was soon challenged by Qing China, who wanted to change Korea from its traditional tributary into a vassal in the new Western world order.

It has never accepted any particular order as permanent and it has been proved with the dismantling of the Soviet bloc in Eastern Europe (1991) and the end of Cold War which led to the massive changes in the international system. The end of Cold War gives a start of new phase in the history of international politics which is often referred as a ‘post-Cold War’ phase of world politics. In the post-Cold War era, the balance of power system and bipolar system that existed for a long period before the end of Cold War, was made away by the unipolar world order loaded with multi-polar characteristics, where more than one power may exercise its influence in world politics.

  • The Early Years of the RASKB : 1900 - 1920
    Published in Transactions of the RASKB, Vol. 85, 2010, 131- 149 The Early Years of the RASKB : 1900 - 1920 Brother Anthony of Taizé 1. The First Beginnings The Royal Asiatic Society Korea Branch was born at 4:30 pm on June 16, 1900, when a founding meeting attended by seventeen men (all but four of them missionaries) was held in the Reading Room of the Seoul Union Club. On that day officers were elected and a constitution (based on that of the London RAS) was adopted. Among those present were the acting British Chargé d’affaires, J. H. Gubbins, and the missionaries James S. Gale, Homer B. Hulbert, George Heber Jones, Horace G. Underwood, H. G. Appenzeller, D. A. Bunker and William B. Scranton. Other missionaries who were members of the RASKB from the very start included H. N. Allen, O. R. Avison and M. N. Trollope. The first paper presented to the Society, on “The Influence of China upon Korea,” was given by James Scarth Gale on October 24, 1900 and it was the first paper published in Volume One of Transactions a few months later. It stressed the overwhelming influence of Chinese culture on Korea. The second paper, by Homer B. Hulbert, on “Korean Survivals,” sought to contradict it and stress the role of native Korean traditions and values. In the two years that followed, seven more lectures were given and 2 more volumes of Transactions were published. But, after a final lecture about Ginseng at the end of 1902 and the publication of Volume 3 of Transactions soon after, everything stopped.

  • Korea: from Hermit Kingdom to Colony
    WORLD HISTORY: 1750–1914 KOREA From Hermit Kingdom to Colony By MiChael J. seth the World encroaches on the hermit Kingdom At the end of the eighteenth century, Korea was a land with more than a millen- nium of political unity, proud of its rigid adherence to Confucian cultural norms, and at peace with its neighbors. Under the reigns of two able kings, Yŏngjo (1724– 1776) and Chŏngjo (1776–1800), Korea prospered. In the nineteenth century, however, the state entered a period when weak kings were dominated by power- ful clans related to the monarch through royal marriages. Some historians see this as a sign that Korea was entering a decline after 1800. There was an uprising in the northwest in 1811–1812, a rice riot in Seoul in 1833, and some small scale peas- ant uprisings in the countryside, mainly aimed at local officials. Yet, its political and social institutions appeared quite stable. The social and economic domination of the country by the hereditary yangban elite (the high- est social class of Korea during the Chosŏn dynasty, 1392–1910), who competed for government office by taking the civil service exams, was secure. There was a Korea, the ”Hermit Kingdom.“ 1904.

  • Transformation of the Dualistic International Order Into the Modern Treaty System in the Sino-Korean Relationship
    International Journal of Korean History (Vol.15 No.2, Aug.2010) 97 G Transformation of the Dualistic International Order into the Modern Treaty System in the Sino-Korean Relationship Song Kue-jin* IntroductionG G Whether in the regional or global scale, the international order can be defined as a unique system within which international issues develop and the diplomatic relations are preserved within confined time periods. The one who has leadership in such international order is, in actuality, the superpowers regardless of the rationale for their leading positions, and the orderliness of the system is determined by their political and economic prowess.1 The power that led East Asia in the pre-modern era was China. The pre- modern East Asian regional order is described as the tribute system. The tribute system is built on the premise of installation, so it was important that China designate and proclaim another nation as a tributary state. The system was not necessarily a one-way imposition; it is possible to view the system built on mutual consent as the tributary state could benefit from China’s support and preserve the domestic order at times of political instability to person in power.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) dr section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages, This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

As a focused historical account of the educational experiences of Korean students in New York from 1907 to 1937, this dissertation uses archival evidence from their associations, correspondence, publications, and the institutions they studied at to construct a transnational narrative that positions the Korean students operating within and outside the confines of their colonial experience.

To this end, under-examined British, French, and Russian diplomatic and personal documents are consulted, shedding new light on lesser-known aspects of major power activities in Korea during the age of High Imperialism from the late nineteenth to the early twentieth century. Ultimately, the attempts of foreign powers, especially Japan, to control these means of communication severely undermined Korea’s independent capacity to execute diplomacy during key moments and eventually extinguished any chance for Korea to retain its fragile independence through neutralisation.
