The Modernisation of the Republic of Korea Navy

The Modernisation of the Republic of Korea Navy

Seapower, Strategy and Politics

Contenu

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.  

Ian Bowers is Associate Professor at the Norwegian Institute for Defence Studies, Oslo, Norway.
