Abstract
Examines the similarities seen between the development of Taiwan and South Korea, since they became independent nations in 1953. More specifically, this paper examines the economic development of both countries, the support and financial assistance they receive from the West, the threat from external aggressors they are both exposed to, the protection they receive from the United States, and the development of their infrastructure.
From the Paper
"South Korea is constantly threatened by North Korea, and the current saber-rattling by the North Koreans makes South Koreans jittery and may also raise questions about the safety of economic investment there from the West. The fact that both South Korea and Taiwan have achieved as much as they have in spite of such threats raises the question of how much they could develop if these threats were removed, though this does not seem likely in the near future. Both nations have achieved a similar level of development in the era since 1953 and have become major forces in the economic development of all of Southeast Asia."

From the Paper
"South Korea has been an important connotation for modern history and the adverse impact of the Cold War. Korean history as such is over four thousand years old however even after treacherous Japanese and Chinese rule over Korea over the course of its history it did have several decades of democracy only to be marred by other invasions. Immediately after the Second World War, America and U.S.S.R. decided arbitrarily to occupy and divide North and South Korea across the 38th Parallel and it was mutually agreed upon that over the next couple of decades the region would be reunited into one Korea. However the spill-over effects of the Cold War, rather Capitalism versus Communism created what can be termed as ??Cold? Korea ?War?? which has led to extensive wars between the North and the South and even after five decades of division both the North and the South have only vastly grown in differences, cultures and economic development. While the North has remained impoverished and dependent on Chinese handouts and maintains one of the largest militaries in the world, USA brought South Korea under its wing and has created one of the world?s largest economies. It is a sharp contrast to the North with very little similarity except a violent history that was marred by foreign rule. South Korea today is a vibrant economy and although it has faced its share of problems with dictatorial regimes over the last couple of decade?s democracy has been widespread and successful and has led to strong economic growth and recovery."

Abstract
This paper explains that the fighting between South Korea, supported by U.S.A., and North Korea, supported by the Soviets, has created such a long-lasting impact on North Korea that it will never again be able to trust the U.S.A., which also has an effect on the relationship of South Korea and the United States. The author points out that the U.S.A., as the 'Super Power,' utilizes its diplomatic relations with other countries to bring about foreign policies that are beneficial to South Korea. The paper relates that the U.S.A. is the most important economic partner of South Korea, one of the leading investors in the South Korean market, and the second largest export market for the U.S.A.; however, there have been disagreements over the trade policies.
From the Paper
"There is a general opinion that the Pacific War had dragged on for far longer than was necessary, and the Japanese had been willing to surrender a long time before they actually did, if their terms that the Emperor would remain in his position had been accepted earlier. In fact, this was what led to the occupation of Manchuria as well as the division of Korea into two factions, the North and the South. With the occupation of North Korea by the Soviets, there grew tensions along the border, there was a virtual Cold War taking place between the two sides, and since the Koreans are a nation of proud people, they were naturally resentful of those who had caused this division, the United States. The Americans in the meanwhile took an easy way out, and appointed the Japanese as administrators of local affairs in South Korea."

Abstract
This paper takes look at the history of the two countries' relationship and discusses why the United States and South Korea should remain strong and important allies to each other. It examines the tense relationship that the U.S. has with North Korea and looks at the history of such a relationship and how this has helped form the alliance between the U.S. and South Korea.
From the Paper
"The United States and South Korea have been allies since the closing days of World War II. Over the course of 50 plus years the U. S. has had its soldiers killed in action to support South Korea against the invasion from the North, has helped bolster its economy, has been an important trade partner and has had a permanent military presence in the country to discourage hostilities between North Korea and the South Korea. As of late, the ties between the two countries have become frayed. South Korea?s current president, Roh Moo-hyun, has inadvertently contributed to the frayed relationship with Washington by insisting that the U.S.?s approach to the North Korean threat of a nuclear arms race is wrong. Many South Koreans resent the U.S. troop presence and Washington now seeks to relocate ground forces away from the border with North Korea."

In 1953, a peace agreement was signed at about the 38th parallel, dividing the peninsula along a demilitarized zone.

Abstract
This paper discusses the South Korean government. The paper contends that the political structure and philosophy of South Korea is a unique interplay of four major forces: first and most obvious, the individual native customs and beliefs of the Korean people; second, Confusion notions and ideals; third, Western European and U.S. political models; and fourth, Marxist philosophy. The paper explains that to understand the modern South Korean government is to recognize it as a conglomeration of philosophies that appear on the surface to be contradictory, but arose out of several periods of economic and political strife.
From the Paper
"The fifteenth century saw the rise of Neo-Confucianism in South Korea; this came out of a response to the established system of noble overlords. The new political movement sought to establish a government that addressed the issues of the citizenry rather than simply act to perpetuate its own power. "As the proponents of Neo-Confucianism secured positions in central government organs, especially the Board of Censors, they were increasingly able to propose policies aimed at the moral reform of the government and its officials in the light of Neo-Confucian doctrine." (Wright 62). Eventually, the political structure became factionalized, separating the Neo-Confucians from the nobles. "

From the Paper
"The political history of the country has been mixed since its formation in 1948. For the first 12 years of its existence, it was ruled by the authoritarian government of Syngman Rhee. After a brief nine month's interlude of liberalism under Prime Minister Chang Myon that followed the student upheavals of April 1960, the military seized political power in a coup in May 1961. A 27-year rule by two military strongmen ensued under a tight and effective presidential system. During this period calls for restoration of democracy were ruthlessly suppressed and human rights took a back seat. "

Abstract
This paper discusses the cause of the Asian Financial Crisis in 1997, and the South Korean government's reaction to monetary and financial pressures. According to this paper, the Asian financial crisis has many causes and consequences, but loans by U.S. banks to businesses in South Korea and elsewhere are an important part of the story. These loans helped create the crisis by supporting unsound investments and creating repayment obligations that Korean enterprises were unable to meet, thus undermining financial market confidence in the South Korean economy.
From the Paper
"For thirty years prior to the Asian' financial crisis South Korea enjoyed fast growth that translated into impressive economic performance, strong fiscal positioning, and macroeconomic stability (Radelet et al). Economic indicators including decreased inflation, increased saving rates, open economies, and thriving export segments made it impossible for economists to predict what was to follow. In the summer of 1996, the Asian financial crisis erupted in Thailand after the country had just experienced an influx in economic growth."
