Journal Title: International Journal of Korean History - Year 2007, Vol 11, Issue 1

Abstract

The 21st century is the era of globalization and regionalism. On one side of the world, globalization has been processed by the impetus of the US and on the other side, the solidarity between countries, as seen in the EU, has been strengthened. How globalizaton and regionalism work together is one of the concerns we have to watch closely. In Korea, in the mid 1990s disccourse on East Asia emerged and it has changed into discussion on the Northeast Asian Community with the turn of the century. To illustrate, the Northeast Asian Intellectuals' Solidarity Korea, NAIS Korea, made the Incheon Declaration 2001. This declaration, initiated by 333 intellectuals in Korea, claimed that Northeast Asia will lead the world in the 21st century and called for the participation and solidarity of intellectuals in this region (NAIS Korea ed., 2004).
