  • The evolution of the ROK's foreign policy

    Edward A OlsenARTICLEThe Washington Quarterly1984

    Under President Chun Du Hwan's skillful maneuvering, South Korea's foreign policy has consistently followed a path toward a more assertive and interdependent role in the international community, reflecting Seoul's shifting perceptions of its allies, adversaries, and trading partners.

    Edward A OlsenARTICLEAsian Affairs An American Review1981
