Este artículo tiene como objetivo analizar arqueológicamente las fortificaciones del período protohistórico de Corea (300 aC – 300 dC), desde los terraplenes, empalizadas y fosos de los primeros núcleos de carácter urbano hasta posibles murallas de carácter fronterizo, en un momento clave en la evolución social, política, cultural y arquitectónica de la península, de transición de la aldea a la ciudad y de los cacicazgos tribales a las confederaciones de pequeñas ciudades-estado que acabarían formando los primeros reinos centralizados. Se tienen en consideración yacimientos amurallados del reino de Koguryo (en el norte), de las confederaciones tribales Samhan como las ciudades-estados de Wirye y Saro (en el sur), y de los distritos administrativos del imperio chino en corea (comandancias Han). Ante las turbias y polémicas interpretaciones nacionalistas de las diferentes tradiciones historiográficas del Asia Oriental (Corea, Japón y China), se defiende aquí el papel de la antigua civilización China como estímulo y origen de influencias avanzadas para el desarrollo de la arquitectura militar coreana, junto al urbanismo y a la organización de estructuras estatales, entre otros factores.  This article aims to analyze archaeologically the fortifications of the protohistoric period of Korea (300 BC – 300 AD), comprising the embankments, palisades and moats of the first urban centres as well as possible border walls, in a key moment in the social, political, cultural and architectonic evolution of the peninsula, of transition from villages to cities and from tribal chiefdoms to the confederation of small city-states that eventually formed the first centralized kingdoms. It is taken into account walled sites of the Koguryo kingdom (in the north), of the Samhan tribal confederations like the city-states of Wirye and Saro (in the south), and of the administrative districts of the Chinese empire in Korea (Han commanderies). Given the murky and controversial nationalist interpretations of the different East Asian historiographical traditions (Korea, Japan and China), we will try to situate within its context the emergence of the urban military architecture in the peninsula and the nearby area, considering the constructions undertaken both by Chinese authorities and by the first Korean confederacies.

This issue is devoted to the predicament of the Chinese population in Korea since its presence there from the 1880s onwards, and the consequences this had for the migrations from South Korea towards China, Taiwan and the us since the 1990s. A broader framework for the difficulties met by the Chinese in Korea is provided by a summary of a workshop held in Amsterdam, on 25-26 June 2015, entitled Japan, China and the Construction of History. This multi-disciplinary workshop intended to construct an alternative to the threat of national chauvinism in the East Asian region, and also to the neo-realist and neo-liberal approaches, which dominate among the International Relations schools in political science. The contestations between Japan and China during the long twentieth century left a deep imprint on their mobile populations; this makes the case of the Chinese population in Korea a telling example of the imprint left on mobile people by big power politics.

Chapter 5 extends the application of the great power bargain framework to provide a new account of post-Cold War Sino-Japanese relations. It examines the steady breakdown of the partial Cold War constitutive and regulative bargains between Japan and China in the post-Cold War period. In capturing the state of their shared understandings, expectations, and agreed norms of conduct, it shows that these two East Asian great powers have not directly negotiated mutual strategic agreements in their recent history, and probes for the systemic, domestic, and ideational reasons for this state of affairs. The analysis demonstrates the extent to which they fall short of even a minimalist bargain and how this failure deeply impacts regional order. This analysis also suggests that Japan and China are stymied by a deeper socio-normative and socio-political estrangement.

The purpose of this study is to explore the drivers of job satisfaction of IT workers in the East Asian context, particularly in Taiwan, Japan, and China. Using data collected from IT workers, decision tree inductions were employed to identify the predictors of job satisfaction. Results indicate that the level of education has no effect on job satisfaction. Overall, higher uncertainty avoidance results in lower job satisfaction, and more experienced IT workers appear to be more satisfied. In Taiwan, longer serving IT workers, who are likely to hold more senior positions and spend more time on the job, are more satisfied with their jobs. Similarly, in Japan, older IT workers are more satisfied. In China, job satisfaction of IT workers differs across job roles and industries. It is recommended that management practices and policies in Taiwan focus on bridging gaps between longer serving and newer IT workers in terms of their ability to handle ambiguous work situations; whereas in Japan, these should focus on providing work flexibility and stress management programs to allow room for family support. In China, these should be tailored to specific job roles and industries in view of their different experiences with job satisfaction determinants.
