The Modernisation of the Republic of Korea Navy : Seapower, Strategy and Politics Paperback / softback
by Ian Bowers
Part of the Critical Studies of the Asia-Pacific series
Paperback / softback
Description
This book sheds light on one of the most under-studied but powerful navies in the world.
Using a multifaceted approach, it examines how the Republic of Korea Navy (ROKN) has sought to transform itself from a coastal naval force focused solely on deterring North Korea to a navy capable of operating in the blue waters of East Asia and beyond.
The project argues that peninsular and regional security dynamics, technological developments, the US-South Korea alliance and internal politics combine to inform and shape ROKN modernisation.
