South Korea Too Preoccupied with Survival to be Asia’s Sweden*Denny Roy* *South Korea, Asia* South Korea’s circumstances may garner sympathy and a measure of respect, but they are not conducive to the country gaining global recognition as a transcendent authority on how to improve the international system. The countries widely known as “middle powers” typically qualify through both physical and behavioral characteristics. The physical characteristics include territory, population, economy, and military forces that are larger than those of a “small” power but smaller than those of a great or major power. By that criterion, the Republic of K... read more

The Horrific Way a Navy Submarine Crew Died: The Sub Split in 6 Pieces*Eli Fuhrman* *Thresher Disaster, * In 2019, retired U.S. Navy Captain James Bryant sued the Navy for the release of documents related to the Thresher’s sinking. The Navy was ordered to release said documents, and began doing so in batches. The United States Navy’s submarine fleet is the world’s most capable fleet of undersea military vessels, as well as one of the world’s safest. Indeed, the Navy has not lost a submarine in over five decades. The tragic sinking of one Navy submarine in the early 1960s, however, stands as a major blemish on the face of an otherwise sterling safet... read more

After Merkel the Trans-Atlantic Relationship Will Be More Important Than Ever*Richard Giragosian* *EU-Russia Relations, * A new U.S.-German geopolitical parity is both probable and possible, despite the divergence of interests over the German-Russian Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline. Even before the departure of German chancellor Angela Merkel from office, an intense focus on her legacy is well underway. After her sixteen years of sober leadership, such a premature discourse is natural. Yet normal or not, the real focus should be less about her past legacy and more about the future, especially in terms of the pivotal position of Germany for European-Russian ... read more

Is South Korea Truly a ‘Middle Power’?*Gilbert Rozman* *South Korea, Asia* In the Indo-Pacific region, it is postulated that South Korea, Australia, and Indonesia (or even ASEAN) could join hands and impact Sino-U.S. relations. There is no sign of this nor any reason to think that shared middle power interests would outweigh the much stronger pull of the great powers. A middle power is a state that has the capabilities to exert influence, at least at a regional level, and relationships with great powers that allow it to utilize these capabilities. It would be a mistake to assume that this gives the state leverage to... read more
