| Popis: | 104 After Cold War, U.S. conducted the situation in Asia Pacific.China developed from this situation and rising. The rise of China and the power transition in East Asia became the most important issues in the international politics. In this background, the rise of china became the most important variable to focus on the change of the Regional Order in East Asia, the influence of the China rising on the US-ROK Alliance and the problem on whether the alliance cooperation or not. In this thesis, I used the background of US-ROK Alliance, the PRC foreign policy on Korean Peninsula, China-ROK relations and the development of the US-ROK Alliance to see the US-ROK Alliance have Alliance security dilemma problem or not. In the analysis, we could find out that the U.S. still still offers a strong security credence to prevent ROK from the threats by North Korea, which keeps the US-ROK alliance in operation. On the China’s rising issue, US and ROK have different perceptions towards the treat by China. While the US considers China to be a potential rival in the regional cooperation blueprint in Asia Pacific, ROK tends to cooperate with China to solve the nuclear menace problem by North Korea. Therefore, some problems, indirectly, emerge within the US-ROK cooperation alliance. To sum up, the US-ROK Alliance may be affected by the rise of China; however, with solid trust from each other still on the North Korea issue, the US-ROK Alliance, in the short term, will not face dissolution due to the China’s rising. |
