International Politics in the Korean Peninsula, Part 1

Content

International Politics in the Korean Peninsula reviews several archetypes of politics and introduces contemporary issues of the inter-Korean relationship. The central content of the course is organized into two modules. First, it will start with several chapters from Records of the Grand Historian, Plutarch's Lives, and History of the Three Kingdoms to find out four archetypes of politics: value creation/distribution in a political entity, conflict and cooperation among political entities, development and maintenance of an identity in a political entity, and leadership selection in an entity.
