Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book details the growing importance of Russo-Korean relations in the late 19th century. Amidst growing international concern, this book discusses the political and commercial conditions within Korea at the time and asserts that it was Russia's objective to use Korea as a means of undermining its powerful neighbors, China and Japan. The author, a former adviser to the Korean government, writes that Korea's weak and unstable political environment made it susceptible to Russian influence. The author argues that Korea's best option for maintaining its independence would be to establish itself as a neutral state, protected by a collective guarantee from major powers. This book is a valuable resource for understanding the complex geopolitical dynamics of the Far East in the late 19th century. It provides a detailed examination of the strategies and tactics employed by Russia to expand its influence and control in the region.
