[Global NK International Conference]
“Nuclear Competition and Escalation Pathways in East Asia”
|
|
The East Asia Institute (EAI) organized a conference called "Nuclear Competition and Escalation Pathways in East Asia: ROK, US, and PRC Perspectives on Cooperation for the Future of the Korean Peninsula" on May 10, 2023. Esteemed American and Chinese security experts from Harvard Kennedy School's Belfer Center, Beijing University, and Grandview Institution were invited to participate. The conference, sponsored by the Ministry of Unification, offered a valuable opportunity for panelists and the audience to openly and freely exchange their views, which had been hindered by the COVID-19 pandemic. The discussions revolved around two main topics: the competition between the United States and China in the nuclear realm, as well as the future of the Korean Peninsula and the potential for collaboration between Seoul, Washington, and Beijing. The key insights and outcomes from this strategic dialogue among top experts in the field have been published as meeting minutes and interview series. Additionally, the research findings from a year-long project on nuclear competition between the US and China will be released as special reports in the coming months.

[ADRN Working Paper Series] Horizontal Accountability in Asian Countries
|
|
The significance of the legislative and judicial branches, as well as oversight agencies, resides in their capacity to uphold the executive branch's accountability. It is essential for these entities to possess sufficient power and resources to efficiently fulfill their responsibilities and preserve a sys-tem of checks and balances. The Asian Democracy Research Network (ADRN) has been undertaking case studies since 2022, with the aim of examining institutions and proposing policy suggestions to strengthen horizontal accountability in Asian nations. As part of this research initiative, the EAI has released a collection of working papers that explore the cases of seven countries.
