The resurging interest in Empire and Imperialism as subjects of historical investigation has yielded in the last decade and a half a number of works which have greatly increased our understanding, and in some cases even awareness, of processes of expansion practiced and/or undergone by East Asian states and societies. In this seminar we are going to read some of these: from reinterpretations of Manchu China and Tokugawa Japan, to works on modern Imperialism and Anti-Imperialism in East Asia. Furthermore, our focus will not only be on the forms of Imperialism described by these books, but also how these new perspectives can be part of a reconfiguration of our understanding of Global History in the (early) modern era.

This seminar course will cover the history of modern Korea and its place in the wider world. The experience of modernity was an exceptionally fractured one in the Korean case: the twentieth century brought extremely rapid industrialization, but also colonization and the division of the country that persists until today. The "at the center" of the course title has a dual connotation here. It signifies Korea's importance in regional and even global histories of the twentieth century; at the same time it stresses the need to put Koreans central in this story, instead of treating the peninsula as merely the geographic location where outside actors clash.
