国际体系文化背景下韩国国家身份的转换

从建构主义视角来看,国家身份是一个国家相对于国际社会的角色,它存在于国际关系之中,主要是由外在结构（国际体系文化）建构而成。国际体系文化的变革往往会导致一个国家对于自我身份的再认知。冷战时期美苏主导的冷战体系文化背景下,韩国成为依附美国强权的缓冲国。冷战结束后,关苏主导的两极体制随着苏联的解体而消失,东北亚国际体系文化处于转型中。在这种背景下,韩国的国家身份开始由东北亚缓冲国向东北亚平衡者（均衡者）身份转换。随着韩国国家身份的转换,其外交政策也随之发生变化。     

中韩不动产抵押制度比较研究

抵押权是担保物权中最为主要的制度。抵押权制度中抵押合同的法律性质、设立方面的问题及抵押权效力范围问题是中韩两国抵押权制度值得比较的部分。关于抵押合同的法律性质,因为对物权行为的不同理解,可以得出不同的结论,对此中韩两国都采取了相似的处理方式。抵押权的效力范围、有关第三人利益的方面,中韩两国的法律规定有一定区别。尤其是关于登记方面,因为两国的登记制度的差别,对于第三人相关的登记事项有诸多不同。     

统一新罗时期汉诗的晚唐风韵

统一新罗前、中期留存的汉诗作品寥寥无几,直到统一新罗后期汉诗创作的主体——新罗宾贡诗人的汉诗才大量出现。在题材内容上,宾贡诗人的汉诗深受中国传统文化思想和晚唐诗人的影响,具有浓郁的儒释道化的感伤底蕴,这种感伤底蕴以壮志未酬而忧郁难伸的儒家济世情怀为主要基调,又兼有离宦退隐而无奈伤感的释道情怀;在艺术风格技巧上,宾贡诗人的汉诗以淡雅明畅为主导,也不乏清健俊丽、雄劲壮阔之作,并且借鉴了晚唐主流诗派——温李诗派的对仗、声律及用典技巧,使其汉诗在平易通畅中见精工典雅。     

关于渤海王室高句丽意识的考辨

关于渤海是否是高句丽的继承国、渤海王室是否存在高句丽意识问题是渤海史研究的重点问题,也是国际学界争论的焦点与热点,因为它是关乎渤海主体民族的归属与政权的性质的大问题.日本与朝鲜半岛学界认定渤海为高句丽的继承国、渤海王室存在高句丽意识的观点,正是由于日本皇室以大国自居,故而认定渤海乃高句丽的继承国,并认定渤海为日本的朝贡国,并认定渤海为日本的朝贡国.朝鲜半岛学界继日本之后,重复日本的老调,制造了渤海史研究的误区,把学术研究政治化.那么,对上述诸方面作实事求是的考辨,则是一个涉及史学研究的历史观与方法论的重要问题.     

略论中朝两国西学及研究动态

西学是东方人对西方文化的统称,包括西欧近代科学技术和思想文化。在内容上可分为"形上"之精神文化和"形下"之物质文明;西学在发展史上,经历了"西学东渐"和西学的"本地化"过程,即初期的"西学东渐"、近代"西势东渐"和"西学"的本地化过程;西学研究,特别是中朝西学研究作为西学研究新的探索领域,业已成为当代文化学研究的热点。     

美国在日韩邦交正常化谈判中的作用（1951-1965）

日韩邦交正常化谈判(1951-1965)历时长达14年之久,不可避免地受到国际环境的影响,尤其受到美国东北亚战略的影响。反之,日韩会谈也从一个侧面反映了东北亚冷战格局的演变。探讨美国在日韩邦交正常化谈判中的作用,可以分析美国为什么“搭台”以及如何“搭台”的。     

中、日、韩人口经济制度的阶段比较

中日韩三个国家因为地理、历史原因具有很强的发展趋同性,具有共同的人口经济发展阶段特征,引领着东亚经济快速发展。在人口经济制度方面正在进行或即将进行第四个发展阶段。经过研究认为契约关系是中日韩在人口经济制度发展变革中共同的认同点。从战略发展来看,及时调整各利益集团的利益合理分配、推动公共活动效率透明化是实现这一地区完成人口经济制度巨大变革的关键措施。     

Politics of Sex Appeal in Advertising

This article is an ethnographic exploration of how gender ideologies were negotiated in the South Korea of the 2000s, in advertising texts and in advertising workplaces. Advertising has been criticized for reproducing gender stereotypes, and it is easy to assume that it is men within advertising agencies who are responsible for the objectifying and sexualizing portrayals of women. Yet behind some of the raciest South Korean advertising campaigns were ambitious women, who not only eagerly repeated the marketing adage that “sex sells” but also, provocatively, attempted to obliterate the lingering patriarchal norms and double sexual standards—with sexualized advertising. This article examines the politics of sex appeal in contemporary South Korean advertising by drawing on participant observation at an advertising agency, interviews, and public discourse analysis. Having situated the women's interventions within the cultural–historical context of South Korea, I, first, show how women's embrace of the sex-appeal aesthetic was a strategy to succeed in a male-dominated work environment and, second, detail how fighting gender discrimination with sex-appeal advertising was a profoundly contradictory project. I suggest that the politics of sex appeal in advertising was symptomatic of how women's struggles for equality were collapsing into neoliberal post-feminist sensibility.     

Intimate mobilities—International (transnational) marriage and migration: Japanese marriage migrants floating between Japan and Korea

In the past decade, intense mobility within Asia has led to increased international marriage (kokusai kekkon) in the region. A growing number of scholars have explored this phenomenon—called the intimate part of Asia—with a focus on foreign brides from emerging economies. Concerning international marriage between Japanese and Koreans, most research focuses on the Korean wives of Japanese husbands who reside in Japan, and little research has been conducted on the Japanese wives of Korean husbands. In this study, the postmigration experiences of Japanese marriage migrant women in South Korea are explored. Semistructured interviews were conducted in Korea with 13 participants. Drawing on the interview data, this article elucidates the trajectories of Japanese marriage migrants, focusing on subjective elements. The participants' accounts demonstrate that their experiences were intertwined with the media, politics, gender roles, parenting ideologies, and family relations. Their various emotional responses underline the ways such factors have shaped their lives.     

Framing the Purchase of Human Goods: Cosmetic Surgery Consumption in Capitalist South Korea

Sociological and cultural research on market participation has been preoccupied with creative markets and traditional labor markets, overlooking alternate types of markets, particularly those of human goods which have proliferated in Asia. This article analyzes South Korea's cosmetic surgery market to examine how and why consumers participate in markets of human goods on the microlevel vis-à-vis macrolevel social structures in an advanced capitalist economy. This article theorizes two cognitive frames (normative conformity and competitive edge) that rationalize and motivate surgical modifications as an alternative vehicle for financial and marital stability in response to macrolevel economic challenges from the nation's developmental trajectory and cultural anxieties from its Confucian traditions about marriage.
