China`s Foreign Policy Towards the Middle East: Trends and Challenges

We conclude that the Chinese relations with the middle east has witnessed a shift from ideology-characterized foreign policy into a more realist foreign policy putting the Chinese national interests at the core. We also conclude that China will continue to pursue its economic interests in the region without direct military involvement, as opposed to the U.S. foreign policy in the region. The military presence might be enforced in to protect the future new silk road, which connects Asia and Europe.

이슬람국가(IS)의 위협과 오바마 행정부의 대응전략 함의

Journal of Korean Political and Diplomatic History, 2017

IS에 대한 미국 오바마 행정부의 대응전략을 분석하는 것은 미국이 IS의 테러위협에 대해 어떻게 인식하고 있는지를 유추해 볼 수 있는 근거이기도 하고, 더 크게는 새롭게 출범하는 미국 신정부의 외교정책에 어떤 변화가 있을지를 예측하는 근거가 될 수 있을 것이다. 본 논문은 크게 2개의 장으로 구성된다. 논문의 전반부에서는 IS의 성장과 정과 원인, 그리고 IS의 특징을 살펴보고, IS의 기본 노선과 팽창전략에 대해 분석한다. 논문의 후반부에서는 미국의 오바 마행정부가 취하고 있는 IS 정책 및 대응전략을 분석하고, 미국 내에서 제기되고 있는 대규모 지상군 파견 주장의 실현 가능성을 논의할 것이다. 또한 IS와 시리아 알 아사드 정권에 대한 각 국가 간의 이해관계와 협조방안을 살펴보고 IS 대응방안을 전망한다.

A Comparative Analysis of President Clinton and Bush's Handling of the North Korean Nuclear Weapons Program: Power and Strategy*

Pacific Focus, 2004

In this regard, Clinton's actual efforts to resolve the issues surrounding the North ' s nuclear program appeared ambiguous and inconsistent. This led to the temporary suspension of the NorthS nuclear am bitions through an Agreed Framework. However, President Bush stuck to more of a hardnosed approach. He continues to demand a complete, veriJiable and irreversible dismantling of the nuclear program first, before any provision of economic or humanitarian assistance is extended toward North Korea. Bush favors multilateral negotiations, which leads the DPRK to feel more isolated than before. Although the second six-party talks ended without a major breakthrough, it seems that all parties except the North think the meeting was successful in terms of lowering tensions in Korea. This case study demonstrates several observable features that characterize the president's role in shaping North Korean policy. A president who wants to take a new approach to some element of US. policy can be caught between the diplomat's desire for flexibility and the power of domestic political forces. The president can achieve success, but only if the new direction in policy finds acceptance on Capitol Hill.
