Disputes often arise out of a widely shared public perception that the region in question is of the utmost importance to the nation. That's frequently not the case, at least when it comes to socio-political and economic factors. The tiny and remote islets, known as Dokdo in South Korea and Takeshima in Japan, for instance, have no such value. In fact, in the early 1960s, both Japanese and Korean negotiators recognized their insignificance and considered blowing them up rather than resolving their ownership. Today, citizens and groups in both countries have mounted sustained campaigns to protect the islets as the heart of the nation, forcing politicians who would rather ignore the islets altogether to take them into account in their bilateral relationship. Such disputes are taking place throughout the region and have wide-ranging domestic and international consequences.^Focusing on non-state actors rather than political elites, Alexander Bukh explains how and why apparently inconsequential territories become central to national and nationalist discourse. These Islands Are Ours draws on a vast array of primary research in four languages, particularly reports produced by the actors, interviews, and governmental data to challenge conventional wisdom. Bukh shows that public campaigns centering on territorial disputes are not about the territory in question. Territorial disputes that were historically unimportant, can become salient when non-state actors bring the issue to the fore of domestic political discourse. This book studies the origins and transformation of such campaigns in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, finding that they originate during times of economic, social, or political crisis.^Alexander BukhLiteraturverzeichnis Seite 175-203Territory, National / Social aspects / East AsiaNationalism / East AsiaEast Asia / BoundariesEast Asia / Boundaries / Social aspectsEast Asia / Foreign relations / Citizen participationEast Asia / Politics and government / 1945-KXP167584528X978-1-5036-1189-4978-1-5036-1190-0HT020382719Studies in Asian security9781503611900978-1-5036-1190-0These islands are oursBukh, AlexanderStanfordCalifornia : Stanford University Press, 2020Online-Ausgabe294/1500015000Amg 1086101oasn522.b932111600023ML 8450 00032020022820200310148220001rda https://ce.visuallibrary.net//domainresource/static/graphics/connectors/viewerLogo.gif http://193.30.112.129:83/F/?func=find-c&ccl_term=ICS%3D148220001+X0001 https://ce.visuallibrary.net/id/1060488 https://ce.visuallibrary.net/i3f/v20/1060488/manifest https://ce.visuallibrary.net/proto_ftsearch/1060488
