초록

This research represents an attempt to develop a better understanding of the underlying structural conditions which facilitate or retard the resilience of the ROK-US alliance. It sheds new light on the US’ renewed focus on deepening and expanding cooperation with ‘capable’ allies as a central feature of the US foreign policy at a time of wrenching geopolitical change and intensifying fiscal constraints. The US continues in its efforts to demonstrate its strong presence in the region and around the world, and is now fully poised to share burdens and responsibilities with its ‘capable’ allies. As a result of the junior ally’s enhanced capabilities to contribute to US security interests beyond the peninsula, the value of the ROK-US alliance has increased in the context of America’s foreign policy and security decisions toward the Asia-Pacific region. This article argues that the more proactively South Korea engages in investing in the evolution of division of labor with the US, the more likely the ROK-US alliance is to remain resilient regardless of political change.

Abstract

This research represents an attempt to develop a better understanding of the underlying structural conditions which facilitate or retard the resilience of the ROK-US alliance. It sheds new light on the US’ renewed focus on deepening and expanding cooperation with ‘capable’ allies as a central feature of the US foreign policy at a time of wrenching geopolitical change and intensifying fiscal constraints. The US continues in its efforts to demonstrate its strong presence in the region and around the world, and is now fully poised to share burdens and responsibilities with its ‘capable’ allies. As a result of the junior ally’s enhanced capabilities to contribute to US security interests beyond the peninsula, the value of the ROK-US alliance has increased in the context of America’s foreign policy and security decisions toward the Asia-Pacific region. This article argues that the more proactively South Korea engages in investing in the evolution of division of labor with the US, the more likely the ROK-US alliance is to remain resilient regardless of political change.
