Présentation

This workshop aims to share and exchange perspectives between East Asian and European scholars about the “small and weak” nations issue and the Korean independence movement in Europe on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Paris Peace Conference.

First, we intend to focus on the Korean Independence movement in Europe with subjects such as:
(1) the circumstances and process of sending delegates to the Paris Peace Conference, (2) the Korean Paris delegation and the activities of Hwang Ki-Whan, (3) the Association of Koreans in France and the role of Hong Che-Ha, (4) the French people who have supported the Korean independence movement, and (5) the English people who helped the Korean independence movement, etc..

Secondly, we would like to deal with comparisons with other non-Korean nations cases:
(1) the “small and weak” nations in the Paris peace Conference, (2) the Asian solidarity between Koreans, Chinese and Vietnamese, (3) the Estonian independence movement and Korea, and (4) the Irish independence movement and Korea, and (5) the other European independence movements.
