This book offers a distinctive perspective on peace processes by
comparatively analysing two cases which have rarely been studied in
tandem, Ireland and Korea. The volume examines and compares Ireland
and Korea as two peace/conflict areas. Despite their differences,
both places are marked by a number of overlaid states of division:
a political border in a geographical unit (an island and a
peninsula); an antagonistic relationship within the population of
those territories; an international relationship recovering from
past asymmetry and colonialism; and divisions within the main
groupings over how to address these relationships. Written by
academics and practitioners from Europe and East Asia, and guided
by the concepts of peacebuilding and reconciliation, the chapters
assess peace efforts at all levels, from the elite to grassroot
organisations. Topics discussed include: historical parallels;
modern debates over the legacy of the past; contemporary
constitutional and security issues; civil society peacebuilding in
relation to faith, sport, and women’s activism; and the role of
economic assistance. The book brings Ireland and Korea into a rich
dialogue which highlights the successes and shortcomings of both
peace processes This book will be of interest to students of Peace
and Conflict Studies, Irish Politics, Korean Politics, and
International Relations.
