Book Broken Morning Calm

Download or read book Broken Morning Calm written by Hyeonggeol John Kim and published by Hyeonggeol John Kim. This book was released on 2014-12-07 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Morning Calm (the Korean Peninsula) is a concealed microcosm of the world tweaked and a wide-open miniature of the world divided. From the outside, this Calm Land has been called a miraculously leaped-up nation defeating the ghost of the Korean War. But inside, there have been buckets of unimaginable inhumanity and irrationality, among which were smashed bodies by tanks, people who were tortured to death by prison guards in the North, the deflowered women by Japanese Imperialist troops, the U.S officers hacked by the Red, and a Korean woman lanced by a U.S soldier in the blood ally South Korea. Extreme conflicts between politicians, Chaebol and labor workers, the poor and the rich, the young and the old, splashes in the religious groups, men and women, disputes over mandatory military service, are also vividly described. Anyway, most of all, Anti-Americanism that gradually got heated through several decades distinctively began to settle down for some reasons, while Pro-Japan that contributed to the collapse of Morning Calm to Japanese Imperialism, which ripped off the skin of peace in the Pacific and East Asia, raping and beheading the innocent residents, is going to run amok in Korea again. So people need to know why these treacherous trends are hazardous to Asia, the U.S and Western countries, too. The world villagers used to say, "If a third world war break out in some places, where could be the Korean Peninsula." There have been not so many opposite opinions about it, putting Middle East incidents as just skirmishes. As much, Morning Calm is the land not only of Korea, but of the powerhouses, including the U.S, China, Japan, Russia, the U.K, France, and Germany altogether. In addition, some intertwined problems must be resolved sooner or later before the Kim's North rapidly collapses down. But, the inner puzzles would not be put together easily; Seoul and locals, duels in the sports corrals, and the chronic pain between Julla and Kyungsang provinces,so-called, the cats at the loggerheads with the dogs. Those issues have not been frequently addressed to the outside, because it has been thought just as a kind of household matter. That much, Morning Calm has existed under the cloak of concealing something false and true deep inside, but, which can explode and sink down under the water, if not proper cures from inside or outside are provided. As the Sewol ferry boat went down, this Calm Land can follow her track, too. Meanwhile, what really matters is the Korean Peninsula is becoming a clock bomb drawing and embracing the Far East and the Western Countries closer to the center of turbulence. So here, I sincerely ask all the world neighbors to pay more attentions to Morning Calm, and hustle to give your hands to cure this peninsula, which is out of hands of itself that has been always subdued with self-satisfaction and gestures like living in a narcissism mode. Once again to remind you, my readers, willy-nilly, this Morning Calm became not just a small country, but a tremendously wide and big black hole and tinder box that can swallow up the peace and prosperity that are tightly tied to the bodies of powerhouses. So I hope that my readers can take your plenty of time to read this book one page at a time and feel the throbbing tensions in a Calm Land. Lastly, I am grateful for his technical assistance, C.S.Hong, and sharing precious opinions with me, B.J.Lee.

Book Chaim Potok

Download or read book Chaim Potok written by Daniel Walden and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2013-07-03 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chaim Potok was a world-class writer and scholar, a Conservative Jew who wrote from and about his tradition and the conflicts between observance and acculturation. With a plain, straightforward style, his novels were set against the moral, spiritual, and intellectual currents of the twentieth century. This collection aims to widen the lens through which we read Chaim Potok and to establish him as an authentic American writer who created unforgettable characters forging American identities for themselves while retaining their Jewish nature. The essays illuminate the central struggle in Potok’s novels, which results from a profound desire to reconcile the appeal of modernity with the pull of traditional Judaism. The volume includes a memoir by Adena Potok and ends with Chaim Potok’s “My Life as a Writer,” a speech he gave at Penn State in 1982. Aside from the editor, the contributors are Victoria Aarons, Nathan P. Devir, Jane Eisner, Susanne Klingenstein, S. Lillian Kremer, Jessica Lang, Sanford E. Marovitz, Kathryn McClymond, Hugh Nissenson, Adena Potok, and Jonathan Rosen.

Book Immigrant Entrepreneurs

Download or read book Immigrant Entrepreneurs written by Ivan Light and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A decade in preparation, Immigrant Entrepreneurs offers the most comprehensive case study ever completed of the causes and consequences of immigrant business ownership. Koreans are the most entrepreneurial of America's new immigrants. By the mid-1970s Americans had already become aware that Korean immigrants were opening, buying, and operating numerous business enterprises in major cities. When Koreans flourished in small business, Americans wanted to know how immigrants could find lucrative business opportunities where native-born Americans could not. Somewhat later, when Korean-black conflicts surfaced in a number of cities, Americans also began to fear the implications for intergroup relations of immigrant entrepreneurs who start in the middle rather than at the bottom of the social and economic hierarchy. Nowhere was immigrant enterprise more obvious or impressive than in Los Angeles, the world's largest Korean settlement outside of Korea and America's premier city of small business. Analyzing both the short-run and the long-run causes of Korean entrepreneurship, the authors explain why the Koreans could find, acquire, and operate small business firms more easily than could native-born residents. They also provide a context for distinguishing clashes of culture and clashes of interest which cause black-Korean tensions in cities, and for framing effective policies to minimize the tensions.

Book The Challenge of Nation Building

Download or read book The Challenge of Nation Building written by Rebecca Patterson and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-09-17 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last decades, the United States Army has often been involved in missions other than conventional warfare. These include low-intensity conflicts, counterinsurgency operations, and nation-building efforts. Although non-conventional warfare represents the majority of missions executed in the past sixty years, the Army still primarily plans, organizes, and trains to fight conventional ground wars. Consequently, in the last ten years, there has been considerable criticism regarding the military’s inability to accomplish tasks other than conventional war. Failed states and the threat they represent cannot be ignored or solved with conventional military might. In order to adapt to this new reality, the U.S. Army must innovate. This text examines the conditions that have allowed or prevented the U.S. Army to innovate for nation-building effectively. By doing so, it shows how military leadership and civil-military relations have changed. Nation-building refers to a type of military occupation where the goal is regime change or survival, a large number of ground troops are deployed, and both military and civilian personnel are used in the political administration of an occupied country, with the goals of establishing a productive economy and a stable government. Such tasks have always been a challenge for the U.S. military, which is not normally equipped or trained to undertake them. Using military effectiveness as the measurement of innovative success, the book analyzes several U.S. nation-building cases, including post World War II Germany, South Korea from 1945-1950, the Vietnam War, and Operation Iraqi Freedom. By doing so, it reveals the conditions that enabled military innovation in one unique case (Germany) while explaining what prevented it in the others. This variation of effectiveness leads to examine prevailing military innovation theories, threat-based accounts, quality of military organizations, and civil-military relations. This text comes at a critical time as the U.S. military faces dwindling resources and tough choices about its force structure and mission orientation. It will add to the growing debate about the role of civilians, military reformers, and institutional factors in military innovation and effectiveness.
