University Affiliation

Professor Lim teaches at Hanyang University in the Department of History.  His courses address such issues as comparative histories of nationalist movements and the socio-cultural history of revolutions. He received his M.A. in Modern European History from Sogang University. He received his Ph.D. in European Intellectual History, also from Sogang University.

Current Research Projects: I am beginning a new project, “Global Easts.” Global Easts, neither Global North nor Global South, originated in my work on the transnational history and entangled histories of Eastern Europe and East Asia that need to be elaborated conceptually and empirically in the context of global modernities.
