When security met politics: Desecuritization of North Korean threats by South Korea's Kim Dae-jung government
This study delves into an empirical case analysis of the desecuritization process of the North Korean threat under the Kim Dae-jung government. Unlike previous studies, it analyzes how domestic and international actors desecuritized traditional threats by taking the pluralistic political processes of a democratic polity seriously. This was the process of competition between different political coalitions and the process of transformation from iss…
The Clash of Soft Powers Between China and Japan: Synergy and Dilemmas at the Six-Party Talks
This article argues that during the Six-Party Talks on North Korea, China adroitly used its diplomacy to produce "soft-power synergy" while Japan became stuck with a "soft-power dilemma." Soft-power synergy refers to an outcome within which a success of an outward (foreign) soft-power strategy brings about simultaneous success of inward (domestic) soft-power strategy. On the other hand, soft-power dilemma denotes an outcome where a success of out…
A theory of soft power and Korea's soft power strategy
This paper suggests a new definition of soft power by making a distinction between hard resources and soft resources, rather than by differentiating between coercive power and cooptive power as Joseph Nye did.

Therefore, wit…

The theoretical discussion of soft power, however, differs from that of Joseph Nye’s in that this paper broadens the category of soft power into five categories in accordance with the specific goals which are achievable with soft power. The author also dev…
