초록

This study sheds light on the US influence on the bilateral resilience between Republic of Korea and Japan with particular focus on the ideational clash in the post-2012 period. Specifically, this study utilized the MMR typology—Maintenance, Marginality, and Renewal—for resilience mechanism to analyze the diverging types of US engagement. To maintain the resilience of “social norm,” namely the US-ROK-Japan trilateral “democratic alliance,” the dominant agent engages with mechanism to lower the level of ‘Otherness,’ or the distance of relational identities, between the two junior partners. The context analyses revealed that the US strategies for influence altered not only due to the regional security environment but also the nature as well as the intensity of the bilateral spats. It is not only essential for the three states to internalize the “social norms” upon which the trilateral framework is imagined, but whether such “common value” can overpower the “Otherness” would determine the resilience of the trilateral cooperation in the future.

Abstract

This study sheds light on the US influence on the bilateral resilience between Republic of Korea and Japan with particular focus on the ideational clash in the post-2012 period. Specifically, this study utilized the MMR typology—Maintenance, Marginality, and Renewal—for resilience mechanism to analyze the diverging types of US engagement. To maintain the resilience of “social norm,” namely the US-ROK-Japan trilateral “democratic alliance,” the dominant agent engages with mechanism to lower the level of ‘Otherness,’ or the distance of relational identities, between the two junior partners. The context analyses revealed that the US strategies for influence altered not only due to the regional security environment but also the nature as well as the intensity of the bilateral spats. It is not only essential for the three states to internalize the “social norms” upon which the trilateral framework is imagined, but whether such “common value” can overpower the “Otherness” would determine the resilience of the trilateral cooperation in the future.
