We want to show, through the case of joint nations city construction, a process of transforming peace from a passive peace realm to an active peace realm by expanding inter-Korean relations centered on diplomacy and security into areas related to the lives of citizens.
South and North Korea, and the international community tried to achieve permanent peace on the Korean Peninsula, most depended on diplomatic and security solutions. Actors are limited and also operating under government control. So We propose the new way, the construction of a multinational united city in the Tuman River basin as an ideal model for the coexistence and co-prosperity of South and North Korea and the international community. It could be also the new model as building ‘active peace’ in Korean peninsula. Through this, we hope that peace on the Korean Peninsula will be made in various ways not only architecture, but also various attempts such as culture, sports, and economy etc. And it should start with the participation of citizens, the realm of life, not just diplomacy and security.
