Historical Memory and Comparative Territorial Disputes between
Korea-Japan and China-Japan
What are the historical origins of the territorial disputes in East Asia? In what way does historical memory shape the tensions? Are there any differences and similarities in the disputes between Korea-Japan and China-Japan? The talk provides an overview of the comparative perspective of the territorial disputes between Dokdo/Takeshima (Korea/Japan) and Senkaku/Diaoyu (Japan/China) islands regarding historical origins, collective memory, domestic politics, and regional security.
Dr. Lee is a Visiting Assistant Professor at Hobart and William Smith Colleges. She completed her Ph.D. in the Department of Political Science at Syracuse University.
