SUMMARY:Diatribes and Dialogues over the Past: “History Problems” and R
 egional Orders in Northeast Asia
DESCRIPTION:In-person talk - Seating is limited. Masks are required for all
  audience members.\n\nCo-sponsored with the Asia Center\, the Fairbank Cen
 ter for Chinese Studies\, the Korea Institute\, and the Reischauer Institu
 te of Japanese Studies\n\nIn this talk\, I propose to re-analyze the histo
 ry of the historical contentions in Northeast Asia as that of the regional
  actors’ attempts to manage their differences over national identities a
 nd their relationships in the context of the region’s shifting power bal
 ance. On the one hand\, the states and civil society actors in the region 
 have been held together by a shared past salient and meaningful to all of 
 them\, jointly creating a common transnational discursive sphere among the
 mselves—a regional order. On the other hand\, they have been molding and
  remolding that regional order in different shapes by endowing their commo
 n past with sometimes convergent\, and sometimes contradictory\, meanings.
  I postulate that the regional actors’ perception of others’ legitimac
 y and their framework of meaning may be combined in four possible ways to 
 shape the nature of the region’s order—nationalist spheres\, parallel 
 national spheres\, contentious regional sphere\, and regional public spher
 e—and that Northeast Asia’s regional order has since the end of the As
 ia Pacific War evolved from parallel national spheres to a regional public
  sphere to a contentious regional sphere.
