Republicanism in Northeast Asia (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Kwak, Jun-Hyeok; Jenco, Leigh

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

As rapid economic development brings increasing uncertainty in East Asia, interest in a new version of republicanism, termed is neo-Roman republicanism, is growing across the region, however these ideas continue to face serious conceptual and political challenges in Northeast Asian countries, which existing literature has failed to confront. This book addresses these challenges by surveying the latest theoretical contributions to the studies of republicanism in Western countries and the latest interpretations of how republicanism, including both communitarian republicanism and neo-Roman republicanism, has been appropriated in countries in East Asia.
