Nationalism was a critical driving force in world history in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, which turned out to be not only constructive but also destructive by causing many political troubles. Yet, a new tide of nationalism is rising again today, which can disrupt the sound development of Korea-China-Japan relations. Indeed, even if nationalism is a historical construction, emboldened nationalism can suffocate the three countries’ relations with only limited breathing room. Obviously, in order to enhance regional stability, Korea, China, and Japan need to develop resilient relations beyond nationalism. In this context, we would like to have a session to discuss how we can understand the nature of re-emerging nationalism in the region and how we can contain the related risks.
