This book examines the first regional strategy of South Korea
towards Southeast Asia and India. At issue is how a middle power (a
G20 country with the tenth largest economy in the world) seeks to
play a larger and more comprehensive role in regions beyond the
Korean peninsula. Hitherto, South Korean foreign policy has focused
on nuclearizing North Korea, alliance maintenance with the United
States, tricky relations with its most important economic partner
China, and difficult ties with Japan marred by historical and
territorial disputes. The Moon Administration has sought to
diversify South Korean foreign policy by elevating ASEAN and India
to the same strategic level as the United States, China, Russia and
Japan. To be sure, the latter countries continue to be most
significant to the Korean peninsula. However, this book offers
different country and regional perspectives on Seoul's first
regional grand strategy to play a role commensurate with its status
as a middle power.
