Short description
How can we understand European integration and its regional development from a global perspective? Despite the ardent wish for finding something like European regionalism, the European experience and its related academic work do not tell much to understand other regional dynamics and development. Against this backdrop, this course introduces ‘comparative regionalism’ which helps to study European experience and those of other regions together. By doing so, it intends to ultimately understand what we mean by ‘region’ and what regional identity is. The course will apply the view of comparative regionalism while exploring two regional cases: Europe and East Asia (in this course, mainly Korean peninsula, Japan, China and Southeast Asia). |
