    Open AccessGi-Wook Shin, Gi‐wook Shin et al.ARTICLEWorld Development2024Citada por: 1Referencias: 14

    Talent Portfolio Theory is a new framework for studying human resource development. • Talent portfolios use brain train, brain gain, brain circulation, and brain linkage. • National talent strategies involve portfolio diversification and rebalancing. • Talent Portfolio Theory allows cross-national comparison of talent strategy over time. • While Japan stagnated, Singapore sustained growth by rebalancing its talent portfolio. We propose Talent Por…

  • Global Talent

    Gi-Wook Shin, Gi‐wook Shin et al.BOOKGlobal Talent2020

    Global Talent seeks to examine the utility of skilled foreigners beyond their human capital value by focusing on their social capital potential, especially their role as transnational bridges between host and home countries.

  • South Korea's Democratic Decay

    Open AccessGi-Wook Shin, Gi‐wook ShinARTICLEJournal of democracy2020Citada por: 28

    South Korea (hereafter Korea) is following global trends as it slides toward a "democratic depression." Both the spirit of democracy and actual liberal-democratic standards are under attack. The symptoms of democratic decline are increasingly hard to miss, and they are appearing in many corners of Korean society, the hallmarks of zero-sum politics in which opponents are demonized, democratic norms are eroded, and political life grows ever more po…

  • The Evolving Sino-American Relationship and the Korea Problem

    Open AccessGi‐wook Shin, David StraubARTICLEChina Quarterly of International…2015

    Distrust between the United States and China continues to grow in Northeast Asia. Among many contributing factors, the North Korea issue is one of the most important, as illustrated by the controversy over the possible deployment of the United States' THAAD missile defense system in South Korea. Thus, resolving or mitigating the Korea problem, a significant goal in its own right to both the United States and China, is also essential to reducing U…

  • Peasant Protest and Social Change in Colonial Korea

    Gi-Wook Shin, Gi‐wook ShinBOOKPeasant Protest and Social Change…2014

    The period from 1876 to 1946 in Korea marked a turbulent time when the country opened its market to foreign powers, became subject to Japanese colonialism, and was swept into agricultural commercialization, industrialization, and eventually postcolonial revolutionary movements. Gi-Wook Shin examines how peasants responded to these events, and to their own economic and political circumstances, with protests that shaped the course of postwar revolu…

  • Chapter Fifteen Racist South Korea? Diverse but Not Tolerant of Diversity

    Gi-Wook Shin, Gi‐wook ShinCHAPTERRace and racism in modern East Asia2013

    Today's Korea shows that even when a society becomes diverse, it does not necessarily become tolerant of diversity. It is important to consider the various ways in which Koreans might successfully adapt to their nation's rapidly emerging multi-ethnic and multicultural society, as well as to isolate some of the major causes and attributes of Korean racism. This chapter examines how Korean racism has been justified, strengthened, and practiced in t…

  • Past Activism, Party Pressure, and Ideology

    Sookyung Kim, P Y Chang et al.ARTICLEMobilization An International…2013Citada por: 5Referencias: 29

    Studies have found that participation in social movements has long-term consequences for individuals' personal life choices and political beliefs. An important but understudied subject in this literature is the impact of past activism on political behavior in an institutional context. The entry of past activists into Korea's National Assembly offers a unique opportunity to assess the continuing effects of movement participation in the context of …

  • Anti-American and Anti-Alliance Sentiments in South Korea

    Gi-Wook Shin, Gi‐wook Shin et al.ARTICLEAsian Survey2011

    The strain between the U.S. and the ROK is often seen as a result of South Korea's anti-Americanism. However, alliance strain and anti-Americanism have not necessarily changed together. This conceptual disparity calls for the need to specify, rather than assume, causality. We utilize newly collected data from two major Korean dailies to show this need

  • Perspective Historical Disputes and Reconciliation in Northeast Asia

    Gi-Wook Shin, Gi‐wook ShinARTICLEPacific Affairs2010

    Over the last two decades Northeast Asia has witnessed growing intra-regional interactions, especially in the realms of culture and economy. Yet wounds from past wrongs, committed during colonialism and war, are not fully healed and the question of history has become heated across Northeast Asia.

  • Ethnic Nationalism in Korea

    Gi-Wook Shin, Gi‐wook ShinBOOKEthnic Nationalism in Korea2006

    This book explains the roots, politics, and legacy of Korean ethnic nationalism, which is based on the sense of a shared bloodline and ancestry. Belief in a racially distinct and ethnically homogeneous nation is widely shared on both sides of the Korean peninsula, although some scholars believe it is a myth with little historical basis. Finding both positions problematic and treating identity formation as a social and historical construct that ha…

  • Asianism in Korea’s politics of identity

    Gi‐wook ShinARTICLEInter-Asia Cultural Studies2005Citada por: 7Referencias: 1

    This article examines Korea's politics of identity in the form of Asianism in the modern period, especially since Korea's incorporation into the modern world system in the late nineteenth century. Asianism, and regionalism generally, has become a salient policy strategy for the current South Korean government.

    In Rescuing History from the Nation, Prasenjit Duara challenges the repressive power of the nation-state to frame historical narratives in modern China and India. According to Duara, dominant narratives in both countries have been based on a linear, evolutionary, Enlightenment model of history that stresses national progress toward modernity, whether through idealist evolutionism, anti-imperialism, or even Marxism. As a result, he argues, such na…
