Through the Eyes of Others

Crossroads of the World

The Roots of Contemporary Politics Common Experience (Political & Non-Political) Heavy Borrowing (Lacks definite borders) -External and inter-regional influence -Economic development Diversity -Ethnicities -Languages -Religions

The Outputs of Contemporary Politics: Common Political Experience Western Colonialism (Anti-Imperial) Nationalism for independence Cold War trauma -Japanese occupation & Superpower rivalry -Internal ideological struggle -Interstate conflict -> Border Disputes -> Constant Communist and Anti-Communist Movement -> Genocide

The Outputs of Contemporary Politics: Common Non-Political Experience Arrival and expansion of non-native religions (12th -17th) Western ideas of Modernity (16th-20th) -Civilization -Capitalism -Democracy Economic transition (1980~) -International labor market -Rapid economic growth -China -> Politically more vulnerable to international market.

The Outputs of Contemporary Politics: People and Language Hundreds of minority groups / National and local languages Negative stereotypes against different ethnicities Less educated Strong sense of the village -agricultural village as the unit of identity -family farm -patron-client ties -> Nutritious condition for isolated/ corrupted/ dictator- friendly/ communism-centered political systems

The Outputs of Contemporary Politics: Religions Religious Values -Buddhist culture -Islamic culture -Animistic culture -Confucianist culture -> Hierarchical political systems

No Ways Border issues Ethnic cleansing/ Genocide Human Right Poverty Common issues, but different paths

In the Minds of Others - Tragedy, Violence, Exploitation - Less frequency - More in-depth commentaries - Battleground -> Marketplace - More complex and sensational - Stereotypical images

Ways Infrastructure Investment -> Intra- and Inter-regional trade and economy Separation between religions, business, and politics Asian Values -Harmony -Consensus -Hierarchy -Communitarianism
