Inauguration Ceremony of GSIS International Complex and GSIS Annual Symposium 2013

the newly annexed GSIS International

Complex Deans of various colleges and

schools in SNU and distinguished guests

from foreign embassies honored the

ceremony with their presence President

Yeon-Cheon Oh in his congratulatory

speech commended GSIS for its effort in

forming an educational environment fit for

global academic discourse

Immediately following the inauguration

ceremony was the very first GSIS Annual

Symposium Organized in two sessions the

symposium addressed new challenges faced

by Korea in the era of global changes

The first session addressed Korearsquos current

diplomatic challenges With Dean Hwy-

Chang Moon as the moderator Professor

Geun Lee initiated the talk with remarks on

the uncertainty and unpredictability of the

nuclear North Korea He stressed that the

answer to the crisis in the Korean peninsula

is through trust and remarked that President

Parkrsquos trust-politik should be a trust-building

rather than a trust-enforcing process

Professor Cheol-Hee Park then remarked on

Korearsquos attitude towards Japan urging

Koreans to assume a pragmatic attitude vis-

agrave-vis Japan in dealing with thorny historical

and territorial issues The floor was then

given to Professor Young-Nam Cho who

assessed the possibilities of change in

Chinarsquos foreign policy toward North Korea

His message was clear-cut Chinarsquos

mainstream opinion of objecting to North

Korearsquos nuclear test believing only in

diplomatic measures and deeming the North

Korean nuclear crisis as an issue involving

North Korea and the US is unlikely to

change unless fundamental changes occur in

the US attitude toward China in the US-

ROK alliance or in North Korearsquos behavior

toward China Professor Tae-Gyun Park then

remarked that South Korea should take

initiative in the signing of a peace treaty

which is the only viable way to nullify the

current armistice system and to promise

peace in the Korean peninsula Professor

Seongho Sheen the final speaker discussed

the possible challenges to the ROK-US

alliance in the near future which include the

revision of the Korea-US Atomic Energy

Agreement the 2015 wartime operation

transfer and the North Korean nuclear crisis

Under the Chattam House rules many

distinguished guests and GSIS students made

comments and raised questions pertaining to

the topics discussed

The afternoon session covered a wide variety

of issues including international development

cooperation international trade and socio-

cultural interactions With Associate Dean

Professor Hyun-Chul Kim as the moderator

Professor Chong-Sup Kim initiated the

session with his remarks on the Korean-style

ODA stressing that in-depth studies of the

recipient country is a precondition for the

successful implementation of the Korean-

style ODA Professor Taekyoon Kim then

discussed the fragmented structure of global

governance by evaluating the lack of

coordination among donors Professor Jang-

Won Suh commented in this regard that

ODA donor countries are rigorously working

together to solve problems regarding both the

ldquoquantity and qualityrdquo of ODAs Professor

Dukgeun Ahn then discussed recent

developments and prospects in the world

trade system the current world trade system

is characterized by a large-scale FTA race

among major trading countries under which

trade liberalization will advance to a

considerable degree Professor Patrick

Messerlin added that Korea has long been a

leader in the ongoing global FTA race and

acknowledged that FTA though not the best

way is an acceptable means of trade

liberalization The floor was then given to

Professor Kisoo Eun who assessed the social

distance between three neighboring countries

ndash Korea China and Japan His assessment

showed that openness and toleration toward

the other was strongest in Korea then in

China and finally in Japan The last speaker

was Professor Jong-Ho Jeong who examined

the impact of globalization from a socio-

cultural perspective with a focus on

transnational interactions between South

Korea and the world in the respective

dimensions of people images and

information and ideas and discourse

In the closing remarks Dean Hwy-Chang

Moon thanked all speakers and participants

for providing a rich academic discussion He

also expressed that the symposium shall be

improved in coming years in terms of both

quality (ie in-depth analysis) and quantity

(ie the scope of analysis and the variety of

topics)

Distinguished Lecture

Changing World Trade Environment and Koreas Responses Taeho Bark Minister for Trade MOFAT

ldquoIn this process of regional economic integration Korea can play an important role in achieving a high-standard RTArdquo On November 12th Minister for Trade and former Dean of GSIS Taeho Bark visited GSIS and gave a lecture on recent trends in Korearsquos trade policy amidst the changing global and regional trade environment Minister Bark started off by explaining the current situations in the world trade environment Since world trade volume took a downturn in 2009 after the financial crisis it has been growing at a slower rate compared to the pre-crisis period Also as a result of renewed protectionism induced by prolonged recession the amount of world trade subject to restriction has increased in the recent years Another strong trend is the proliferation of regionalism Bilateral Free Trade Agreements (FTA) are being integrated into larger and more efficient Regional Trade Agreements (RTA) such as the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) Agreement comprised of 11 participants and the Regional Comprehensive Economic

Partnership (RCEP) agreement between the ASEAN+6 The number of RTAs has continuously risen today cumulative RTAs in force exceed three hundred in number Moreover the WTO DDA negotiation is currently at an impasse with only modest developments mainly due to the renewed importing power of emerging markets like China Brazil and India Minister Bark then gave an overview of Korearsquos trade policy Up until the early 1990s Korea relied on the multilateral trading system of the GATT Korearsquos interest in FTA began with the conclusion of NAFTA in 1993 and grew with the proliferation of RTAs Korearsquos main objectives were to penetrate into foreign markets and to attract foreign investments and technology Korea drew its first FTA roadmap in 2003 with a priority given on large advanced and emerging economies and countries with rich natural resources Since then the government has pursued multiple FTAs according to the schedule specified in the roadmap Currently there are eight FTAs in effect including that with the US EU and ASEAN Two other FTAs have been concluded ndash Turkey and Colombia ndash and seven are being negotiated including the Korea-China FTA Negotiations for Korea-Japan and Korea-Japan-China FTA and the RCEP are expected to start soon Finally he discussed the issues specific to economic integration in the Asia-Pacific Some of the recent developments in Asia-Pacific include the start of Korea-China FTA negotiations on May 2nd 2012 the

Trilateral Korea-Japan-China Summit held in Beijing on May 13th where the leaders agreed to launch Trilateral FTA negotiations before the end of 2012 and the remaining possibility that Korea may resume its bilateral FTA negotiations with Japan which had been suspended 8 years ago Above all ASEAN and its 6 FTA partner countries ndash Korea China Japan Australia New Zealand and India ndash agreed to launch RCEP negotiations at the East Asia Summit to be held in Cambodia this November These various types of economic integration of East Asia are expected to progress in parallel with the TPP negotiations In the medium or longer term it is possible that we will have three major economic blocs in the world RCEP TPP and EU If RCEP and the TPP move forward on the open regionalism principles there could be a merging point in the long run to form an overarching Free Trade Area of the Asia Pacific (FTAAP) which is the ultimate goal of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) In this process of regional economic integration Korea can play an important role in achieving a high-standard RTA In the near future Korea may become the only country in the world to have simultaneously concluded bilateral FTAs with the US the EU and China In other words Korea may become a FTA-hub country capable of exporting to many countries and hopefully FDI ndash foreign companies as well as their investment ndash will flow into Korea to utilize Korearsquos FTA network

Green Growth for Future Generations

Lars Rasmussen Chair of the Board of Directors Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) Former Prime Minister of Denmark Chairman of the Liberal Party of Danish Parliament

ldquoGreen growth is the economic development of the futurerdquo

Mr Lars Rasmussen the Chairman of

GGGI gave a lecture on October 22nd at

Sochon Convention Hall A Korea-led

initiative GGGI has recently been

recognized as an international organization

Korea has also been appointed as the host

country for the Green Climate Fund (GCF)

Recent studies reveal that due to global

warming the carbon-intensive approach to

development needs to be changed Such

situations create a real dilemma sustainable

development is advocated while in the

developing countries progress and jobs for

overcoming poverty and inequality are in

high demand

Mr Rasmussen explained that it is the exact

goal of GGGI to combine these two

demands GGGI is dedicated to developing

and sharing a new model of economic

growth called ldquoGreen Growthrdquo which

emphasizes both economic development

and environmental sustainability He

believes that by assisting developing

countries through guidance on how to

implement environment-friendly policies

and equipping them with available

technology and finance GGGI would help

the countries define their own policies Mr

Rasmussen also remarked that the newly

established GCF is expected to create a

huge synergy effect along with GGGIrsquos

partnership with numerous countries

institutions and the private sector as well as

its research platform The Global Green

Growth Forum an annual event held in

Copenhagen which is in close collaboration

with the Institute is an example of the

GGGIrsquos initiative to bring the public and

private sectors together

Mr Rasmussen emphasized the importance

of green growth stressing that rather than

being barriers to success environmental-

friendly policies are a responsible paradigm

for a stronger economy He welcomed the

increase in the number of people who

understand the need for green economic

policies and concluded that it is important

for young people to be aware of the

importance of green growth in the decision-

making process in both public and private

sectors

The Nuclear Policy Workshop

Nuclear Energy Policy after Fukushima Cases of France Japan and the US Frank von Hippel (Princeton University) Masafumi Takubo (Nuclear Policy Analyst) Mycle Schneider (Nuclear and Energy Consultant)

On October 25th the Nuclear Policy

Workshop was held at the GL-Room The

event invited nuclear policy specialists

Frank von Hippel Mycle Schneider and

Masafumi Takubo Given Korearsquos high

energy-dependent status Korea encounters

a problem over nuclear waste disposal as

well as nuclear energy negotiation with the

United States The workshop proceeded as

each presenters gave a presentation on US

Japanese and French policy in the field and

assessed remaining issues

Mr Hippel pointed out high cost and low

credibility as the reason behind uncommon

reprocessing of used nuclear energy He

then continued by mentioning an alternative

to this problem reminding Fukushimarsquos

safe case as an example In sum US dry

storage system despite its delay due to

political reasons is more appropriate than

reprocessing due to low cost and safety

In Japanrsquos case according to Mr Takubo

reprocessing policy is highly questioned At

the facility level Rokkasho reprocessing

plant is close to its completion In terms of

storage Japanrsquos objective is to reprocess

rather than to store so storage scale is

insignificant Consequently the operation

of reprocessing facility only incurs

economic disadvantage

In case of France Mr Schneider referred to

AREVA corporations description of

nuclear fuel cycle and remarked that

invisible problems exist at the disposal

stage He added that French reprocessing

facilities have been constructed in a way to

meet the demands of many other countries

and France continues to reprocess used fuel

Fuels produced by AREVA or EDF

reprocessing plants however are

economically infeasible and bring loss This

workshop highlighted the importance of

nuclear security from different perspectives

explaining the concept of human rights

Human rights are human life quality itself

as internationalization continues human

rights are becoming a part of daily life

Ambassador Park explained that economic

growth and human rights are two sides of

multi-sectoral and multi-actors approach

that is a comprehensive approach

Human rights are promoted and expanded

as time goes according to the quantity and

quality of human life He emphasized the

need for a collective international

cooperation approach with regards to

tackling the issues related with human

rights Ambassador Park also called on the

international community with particular

emphasis on the UN to play a more

decisive role in curbing issues related to

human rights He also urged the youth to

take up roles in addressing issues bothering

on human rights for development and also

encouraged them to join UN agencies that

seek to address these issues

He then acknowledged the plight of victims

of human right atrocities throughout the

Special Lecture

Addressing Security Challenges in the 21st Century NATOrsquos Role in Cooperative Security

Ambassador Dirk Brengelmann Assistant Secretary General for Political Affairs and Security Policy NATO A special lecture by Dirk Brengelmann the

Assistant Secretary General for Political

Affairs and Security Policy at NATO took

place on November 14th 2012 in the GL

Room As a practitioner in NATO

Ambassador Brengelmann noted the

broadening partnership of the members in

dealing with international conflicts He

emphasized the growing partnership

between Korea and NATO in developing

common responses to global challenges

Ambassador Brengelmann explained the

changing dynamics of cooperative security

relation in how states are interconnected

regardless of issues and borders

Amongst such circumstances he

commented on how the NATO shows

uniqueness in bringing together 26

European countries plus the US and

Canada linked by democracy and liberal

values and in promising to come to the

rescue of any member under attack Such

strong commitment of guaranteeing

security is only possible because NATO is

built on a strong set of principles and values

based on like-mindedness

Around 40 students joined to participate in

a lively discussion The first question was

about cyber-security and NATOrsquos response

in dealing with this new source of threat

Mr Brengelmann responded that NATOrsquos

capability of handling cyber-security is

growing stronger with the establishment of

many centers and troops in operations

around Europe The next question came

from a German student regarding whether

NATO feels an obligation to intervene in

Syria just as it did in Libya Ambassador

gave a clear comparison of the two different

cases NATO intervened in Libya because

there was a request from the Arab League

to establish a No-Fly zone There was

however no request from the region or any

tasking from the UN to intervene in Syria

As students from different countries such

as China Germany Italy Egypt and the

US raised questions students were able to

get a clearer picture of NATOrsquos expanding

intervention in global affairs

FTA Business and Strategy Program

On March 2nd 2013 GSIS launched the program on ldquoFTA Business and Strategyrdquo The program consists of two tracks the ldquoFTA Business

amp Strategyrdquo intended for master degree students at GSIS and the ldquoFTA Leadership Programrdquo for practitioners researchers and policy

makers dedicated to FTA-related issues The objective of the program is to train students and professionals with expertise in free trade and

regional integration

⊙ FTA Business and Strategy Program for GSIS students This program is offered to GSIS Masterrsquos students of any major with interests in FTA-related issues from March 2013 Students must

consult and gain approval from their academic advisors before applying A total of 16 students are selected all of whom must obtain 12

credits from the courses designated for the program and write their thesis on a FTA-related issue Students who have successfully completed

the program will be rewarded a certificate by the Dean of GSIS and the Minister of Strategy and Finance

As an undergraduate I majored in

biological engineering and I have felt that

a more in-depth research on the FTArsquos

effects on the Korean biotechnology

industries need to be conducted I decided

to study at GSIS after being greatly

intrigued about the changes that Korearsquos

biotechnological sector will encounter

after a FTA During the first semester I

had opportunities to correct my original

reading the recommended books When I

I am currently working at

Since July last year I am reporting and

editing for the FTA magazine published by

the Director General for Domestic Support

in FTAs in the Ministry of Trade Industry

amp Energy Each month I report on an

international FTA issue domestic events

and seminars on FTA I also visit small- and

medium- enterprises that are making full use

of the FTAs When I found about the

program I was reporting on this program

and Professor Ahn and Mr Won-Kyu Shin

a researcher kindly suggested me to

⊙ FTA Leadership Program (FLP) for Practitioners This program is offered to practitioners of the FTA in the public and private sectors in Korea with classes given every other Saturday

Certificates by the Dean of GSIS and the Minister of Strategy and Finance are issued for those who have taken more than 12 classes out of

14 and have completed their research report on FTA-related issues For the spring semester of 2013 34 FTA practitioners have

participated in the FLP course

heard about the newly launched program on FTA I applied for it

hoping that it would provide me with basic knowledge on FTA as

well as various issues including business strategies I am also

pleased to learn more specifically about a certain branch in my

major under the systematic management provided by GSIS and the

professors It is very exciting to hear that there would be new

courses for the FTA program next semester I greatly appreciate the

professors and GSIS for creating such a informative program

I had almost no knowledge on FTAs before I learned about the issues

through the magazine I was thirsty to gain systematic knowledge on

the FTA issues Taking the course I am continuously shocked at how

ignorant I was It was a shock to listen to the lecturers who for

decades have been closely involved in the FTAs I also feel like a

freshman to come to a campus again Sadly the program lasts only for

one semester but I will make the most of it by enjoying and

concentrating on the rest of the courses

including various regions and various levels and forms of regional

agreements I wanted to be ready for the practice by taking a

course which deals with FTA in general I am fully satisfied with

vivid descriptions of the field work by best professors from each

field and the course itself as it delivers recent issues clearly I

strongly recommend this course to anyone who work in the field

related to FTAs

In view of expanding world markets and

the fast changes that are occurring across

the globe the importance of international

trade to the economy of Korea is highly

significant The FTA can be considered

as a new solution ndash a ldquorelief pitcherrdquo if

you l ike ndash that can reinvigorate

international trade which is stalled as a

result of severe saturation as regards

competitive trade Korea is a country

with one of the most active FTA

agreements and is involved in ongoing

negotiations in this regard For myself the opportunity of participating in this specialized program focusing

on FTA business and strategy offered by the GSIS at Seoul National

University appears to me to be a unique and interesting opportunity

In particular I can continue to pursue my Masters Degree while

participating in this FTA specialized program Assuming that the

global FTA markets will continue to expand in the near future I

would like to be considered on completion of this program as part

of the global talent in demand

As one of the members in ldquoIMF Youth

Fellowsrdquo it was very meaningful for me to

join ldquo2012 IMF and World Bank Annual

Meetingrdquo held in Tokyo in October 2012

Considering the recent world economy in

recession the importance of the IMF annual

meeting which analyzes the flow of the

world economy and comes up with

resolution was much bigger I got an

opportunity to join the meeting as the

representative of Korean students and Civil

Society Organizations (CSOs) Among the

student participants were three

representatives from China Singapore and

Thailand and seven from Japan The

Japanese representatives were winners of

Essay Contest held by the IMF

We went to a discussion session which

covered various subjects on CSOs as well

as the opening ceremony of the Annual

Meeting The most memorable session was

the ldquoYouth Dialoguerdquo which discussed the

effects of Asian Financial Crisis in each

country Broadcasted by NHK and Tokyo

TV this session included deputy managing

director Nemat Shafik and two Japanese

students as panelists and other participants

including me and other Chinese and Thai

students

During the session I received questions on

the impact of lsquo97 Asian Financial Crisis in

Korean economy and the effects of MNCs

such as Samsung and Hyundai in the

Korean economy Since the Asian Financial

Crisis caused much bigger structural

problems than the 2008 World Financial

Crisis the former crisis became a major

dish in the session Incidentally I was the

oldest participant in IMF Youth Fellow but

this became a strong point in discussing the

Asian Financial Crisis

To the first question I gave an answer that

after the Asian Financial Crisis there had

been great preferences to stable jobs such as

government officials in Korea mentioning

that without deep considerations over their

dreams and talent young Koreans tend to

cling onto the civil service exams

I replied to the second question that global

corporations were the key drivers of

Korearsquos economic growth however they at

the same time caused the conglomerate-

biased economic structure Meanwhile I

added that economic democratization had

become a hot potato in the 2012

presidential election and it could be

understood in this context I also stated that

the growth of the global corporations had

caused the youth to have strong preferences

over the conglomerates when job hunting

generating voluntary unemployment

Other than the aforementioned events I had

a chance to participate in various discussion

sessions including the Town Hall meeting

with IMF MD Christine Lagarde and WB

director Yong Kim and Youth Fellow

Discussion with IMF deputy MD Naoyuki

Shinohara Seeing famous figures was

impressive but above all it was the

interaction and discussion with various

people from various regions that I enjoyed

People who belonged to groups from civil

societies included noted scholars

representatives from civil organizations

and civil activists as well as IMF Youth

Fellow members

I will never be able to forget about the

open-mindedness and passion that these

people had shown throughout the meeting

For example one civic activist from

Pakistan suggested to put ldquoprotection for

human rightsrdquo as an IMF conditionality It

was not accepted in the end but it was a

rather fresh impression not confined merely

to economic matters and showed how the

IMF was broadening discussion subjects

from the economic issues Through this

IMF annual meeting I saw various sectors

such as governments civil groups and

academia discuss and communicate with

one another I feel thankful for being given

the opportunity to participate in such a

dynamic forum which broke borders and

the difference in age sex and positions I

will never forget about the whole week that

I spent in Tokyo

CAMPUS Asia Field Trip For two days from Oct 12 of 2012 as part

of the CAMPUS Asia program 22 students

from SNU GSIS School of International

Studies (SIS) at Peking University and the

Graduate School of Public Policy (GraSPP)

at the University of Tokyo went on a field

trip near Seoul Korea The workshop gave

a good opportunity for the Chinese and

Japanese students who were studying in

SNU and the Korean students to get to

know each other better and to discuss on

the upcoming presentations on the Korea-

China-Japan relations

On October 12th students gathered together

at SNU GSIS and went to Suwon

Hwaseong where they could feel much of

Korearsquos spirit

After going around Suwon Hwaseong the

students made a visit to the Suwon

Samsung Promotion Center located nearby

and spent around 40 minutes listening

about Samsungrsquos history and its products

Then they saw the 3D TV Smart TV with a

camera hanging which made users control

it with bare hands audio products giving

off 3D surrounding sounds and products

projecting the screen on a window working

as a monitor not to mention Samsungrsquos

latest cell phone Not only international

students but Koreans also found it jaw-

dropping They also had an enjoyable time

watching brand new products yet to be

released

Closing the field trip CAMPUS Asia

students went to their accommodation and

had short talks on Korea-China-Japan

issues with Associate Dean of GSIS

Professor Dukgeun Ahn Although

everyone seemed exhausted by the long day

they enjoyed delicious food and enjoyed

the festive ambience

On the second day of the trip students

headed over to the porcelain-making

workshop At the workshop of a porcelain

master famous for making porcelain

blindfolded on a Korean TV show the

students were provided with one-to-one

instructions on how to keep the balance

when shaping the dough and how to shape

it into porcelain Students enjoyed creating

one-of-a-kind porcelain pieces of their own

by drawing in their own art and putting the

date and names on their works

Although there were only 22 students

present participants were able to break the

cultural and linguistic barriers CAMPUS

Asia students spent an enjoyable and

memorable time building a cornerstone for

a closer future relationship between Korea

ldquoAs one of the pioneer participants of CAMPUS ASIA exchange

program I am very glad to have gained an internship opportunity at the

Korea Foundation during my exchange period in SNU GSIS

I have a lasting interest in international cooperation and diplomacy As

a representative organization for Korearsquos public diplomacy the Korea

Foundation (KF) seems like the ideal place to pursue my interest of

international affairs With the encouragement and recommendation

from Professor Cheol-Hee Park of GSIS I was accepted for an

internship at KF Public Diplomacy Department

KF Public Diplomacy Department is responsible for organizing various

events in promoting interactions and understandings between Korea

and the world During my 6-weeks internship at the department I

participated in several research and preparation work of public

diplomacy related events including the Korea Public Diplomacy

Forum led by former US General BBBell I have gained deeper

understandings of public diplomacy as well as Korean culture Besides

sharing opinions and ideas with my Korean colleagues has broadened

my vision and refreshed my way of thinking which I think is of great

importance to my future career

My internship experience at the Korea Foundation is absolutely fruitful

and rewarding It does not only enrich my exchange experience but

also brings me invaluable friendships and memories I appreciate very

much the help and support that SNU GSIS has offered throughout my

exchange and internship period and hope that my experience would

encourage my fellow GSIS schoolmates to work hard and grasp the

most during their stays in Koreardquo

power and trilateralism education in

Northeast Asia aging society and

TEAJAKOCHI Project in an orderly

matter

garnered much interest was created by the

fourth group The fourth group proposed

that mirroring the mission of the CAMPUS

Asia Program the biggest companies of the

three countries such as Samsung Lenovo

and Sony could cooperate with each other

and collaborate for technological

breakthroughs

Professor Park resumed the role as judge to

grade the groups After deliberation

Professor Park nominated the third group

which presented on aging society as the

winner of the CAMPUS Asia presentation

session He commented that the winning

team provided a thorough explanation on

the problem of aging society which is an

issue shared by all three countries He also

commended the winning team for coming

up with appropriate measures for the

pending problem

Regardless of the result the session was a

great opportunity to realize the importance

of mutual understanding and cooperation

between the students of the three countries

It was also an event that showed the merits

of the CAMPUS Asia program

pro-democracy groups have played an important role Balanced relations between South Korea and the United

States cannot be obtained unless we look back and reflect on the failures of the past Based on concrete historical

data on US foreign policy this book analyzes and explains the ROK-US relations from 815 independence

movement to 518 democratization movement while criticizing the dichotomous perceptions and views which see

ldquolost decaderdquo or the ldquolost two decadesrdquo but there are different perspectives that see Japan as having gone

through important changes from within The empirical studies of this book try to explore how these new

changes progress and how the structural changes at the macro level reorganize the daily lives of Japanese

people Topics include reorganization of publicity and civil society aging society urban development

decentralization of power inequality and poverty unemployment rate of the younger generation changes in

industrial structure multinational and multicultural issues These topics imply issues related to forming

communities in modern Japan gaining income for living and at the same time securing self-dignity forming

Global Insight Program an educational program on

foreign markets and global issues sponsored by

Hyundai-Kia Motors was open for three weeks from

28th November 2012 at GSIS This program first

started in 2010 with higher expectations of global and

regional knowledge for experts in automobile research

technicians as the automobile industry becomes

vigorous in entering the world market Need for

profound knowledge in global and regional markets is

increasingly in demand these days in the industry

The old system of domestic manufactures of

standardized automobiles has been gradually overcome

Global enterprises such as Hyundai Motors are now

manufacturing automobiles on-site to sell them at the

local market Therefore the importance of global

knowledge and various regional issues is increasing in

order to support the new system

Global Insight Program is designed to provide such

knowledge through lectures from experts in three areas

automobile issues global issues and regional issues

On the automobile issues the lectures included

ldquoBusiness Strategy for Automobile Industryrdquo by Jeon-

Kap Lee former Vice Chairman of Hyundai-Kia

Motors ldquoToyota Storiesrdquo by Professor Hyun-Chul Kim

and ldquoAdvent of New Technology and Changes in

Automobile Industryrdquo by Professor Chang-Ho Oh from

Hanshin University Lectures on global issues included

ldquoGlobal Business Strategyrdquo by Professor Hwy-Chang

Moon ldquoGlobal Economic Crisis and World Economic

Trendrdquo by Professor Yeongseop Rhee and ldquoWorld

Trade Environment and Business Trade Strategyrdquo by

Professor Dukgeun Ahn Regarding regional issues

experts on each region were invited to give lectures

For example experts on markets of the United States

and Middle and Latin America Japan and China

Europe and India and Asia and the Middle East were

invited GSIS organizes Global Insight Program at the

highest level and tries to improve it every year

The program received favorable comments from the

participants from the initial stage The number of

participants has grown from 90 to 200 during the last

three years and many of them showing deep keen

interests in many other regions that have not been dealt

with in the program expressed their wishes for the

expansion of the curriculum GSIS will try to reflect

their opinions and help the participants of various fields

Inauguration Ceremony of GSIS International Complex and GSIS Annual Symposium 2013

the newly annexed GSIS International

Complex Deans of various colleges and

schools in SNU and distinguished guests

from foreign embassies honored the

ceremony with their presence President

Yeon-Cheon Oh in his congratulatory

speech commended GSIS for its effort in

forming an educational environment fit for

global academic discourse

Immediately following the inauguration

ceremony was the very first GSIS Annual

Symposium Organized in two sessions the

symposium addressed new challenges faced

by Korea in the era of global changes

The first session addressed Korearsquos current

diplomatic challenges With Dean Hwy-

Chang Moon as the moderator Professor

Geun Lee initiated the talk with remarks on

the uncertainty and unpredictability of the

nuclear North Korea He stressed that the

answer to the crisis in the Korean peninsula

is through trust and remarked that President

Parkrsquos trust-politik should be a trust-building

rather than a trust-enforcing process

Professor Cheol-Hee Park then remarked on

Korearsquos attitude towards Japan urging

Koreans to assume a pragmatic attitude vis-

agrave-vis Japan in dealing with thorny historical

and territorial issues The floor was then

given to Professor Young-Nam Cho who

assessed the possibilities of change in

Chinarsquos foreign policy toward North Korea

His message was clear-cut Chinarsquos

mainstream opinion of objecting to North

Korearsquos nuclear test believing only in

diplomatic measures and deeming the North

Korean nuclear crisis as an issue involving

North Korea and the US is unlikely to

change unless fundamental changes occur in

the US attitude toward China in the US-

ROK alliance or in North Korearsquos behavior

toward China Professor Tae-Gyun Park then

remarked that South Korea should take

initiative in the signing of a peace treaty

which is the only viable way to nullify the

current armistice system and to promise

peace in the Korean peninsula Professor

Seongho Sheen the final speaker discussed

the possible challenges to the ROK-US

alliance in the near future which include the

revision of the Korea-US Atomic Energy

Agreement the 2015 wartime operation

transfer and the North Korean nuclear crisis

Under the Chattam House rules many

distinguished guests and GSIS students made

comments and raised questions pertaining to

the topics discussed

The afternoon session covered a wide variety

of issues including international development

cooperation international trade and socio-

cultural interactions With Associate Dean

Professor Hyun-Chul Kim as the moderator

Professor Chong-Sup Kim initiated the

session with his remarks on the Korean-style

ODA stressing that in-depth studies of the

recipient country is a precondition for the

successful implementation of the Korean-

style ODA Professor Taekyoon Kim then

discussed the fragmented structure of global

governance by evaluating the lack of

coordination among donors Professor Jang-

Won Suh commented in this regard that

ODA donor countries are rigorously working

together to solve problems regarding both the

ldquoquantity and qualityrdquo of ODAs Professor

Dukgeun Ahn then discussed recent

developments and prospects in the world

trade system the current world trade system

is characterized by a large-scale FTA race

among major trading countries under which

trade liberalization will advance to a

considerable degree Professor Patrick

Messerlin added that Korea has long been a

leader in the ongoing global FTA race and

acknowledged that FTA though not the best

way is an acceptable means of trade

liberalization The floor was then given to

Professor Kisoo Eun who assessed the social

distance between three neighboring countries

ndash Korea China and Japan His assessment

showed that openness and toleration toward

the other was strongest in Korea then in

China and finally in Japan The last speaker

was Professor Jong-Ho Jeong who examined

the impact of globalization from a socio-

cultural perspective with a focus on

transnational interactions between South

Korea and the world in the respective

dimensions of people images and

information and ideas and discourse

In the closing remarks Dean Hwy-Chang

Moon thanked all speakers and participants

for providing a rich academic discussion He

also expressed that the symposium shall be

improved in coming years in terms of both

quality (ie in-depth analysis) and quantity

(ie the scope of analysis and the variety of

topics)
