  • 이 연구는 재난의 미디어 매개와 공감의 정치를 이론적으로 고찰하고, 이를 문화정치적 이슈로 새롭게 재구성할 수 있는 가능성을 모색한다. 인류의 삶과 뗄 수 없는 재난의 경험은 오랫동안 사람들이 주목하고 감정적 반응을 야기하였던 중요한 대상이었다. 하지만 현대사회는 재난의 의미를 한층 정치적인 것으로 변화시키고, 이에 대한 감정적 반응을 새롭게 재구성한다. 이 연구는 재난과 고통의 소재들이 미디어 매개 과정을 거쳐 새로운 사회적 의미를 구성해 나가는 과정에 주목한다. 그리고 미디어를 통해 매개된 공감의 경험이 바로 21세기의 미디어 환경에서 새롭게 정초해야 할 미디어 연구의 도덕적 윤리적 전환, 그리고 글로벌 시민사회의 감수성 형성이라는 문화정치적 잠재력의 원천임을 주장한다. 동시에 이 연구는 타인들이 겪는 고통의 매개 과정이 수용자들의 새로운 공적 행위를 유발시키는 중요한 계기로 기능한다는 점에 주목하고, 그것의 함의를 포착하고자 시도한다.

  • 사암 박순(1523~1589)은 16세기 도학정치사에서 매우 중요한 위치를 차지한다. 선조가 즉위한 뒤 14년간이나 재상을 지내면서, 그 이전의 훈척정치(勳戚政治)를 도학정치로 바꾸는 데 지도적 위치에 있었다. 그는 이전 시기의 정암(靜菴) 조광조(趙光祖: 1482~1519)가 부르짖은 도학정치의 이념을 계승하여 신진 사류(士類)에 의한 개혁정치를 추구하였다. 원칙과 여론이 일치되는 도학적 이상정치를 추구하였고, 이것의 실현을 위해 '세도(世道)'를 바로잡고 '청의(淸議)'를 신장하는 데 앞장섰다. 도학정치를 세도정치(世道政治)라고 하는 이유가 여기에 있다. 한편 그는 잘못된 현실을 비판하고 이상을 실현하는 준거(準據)로 '고례(古禮)'를 중시하였다. 그가 생각하는 '고'는 단순한 시간상의 되돌림이 아니었다. 이상이자 원리이며 전통이었다. 그는 '고'의 정신으로 돌아가는 것이야말로 가장 의미 있는 개혁이라고 생각하였다. 그가 국가의 전례(典禮)에서 '고례'의 실천을 강조하며 이것을 관철시키려고 애썼던 것은 이 때문이었다.

  • When literatures and cultures encounter their counterparts in terms of the big data or statistics of a new reconfiguration in the cognitive map, the tangential points of the borderland will be reduced to what Mitchell calls "a mere abstraction on a map," which nevertheless will provide a vast interstitial zone of "intersections, competition, and exclusions." This zone will be the dynamic vortex for the aesthetics, politics, and ethics of cultural translation. The translated discourse will engage in carrying across the disturbing region of untranslatability and demonstrate how the literary texts of world literature reveal enriching but threatening human experience. This dynamic border of vortex will construct the translational space of world literature, transcending the fragmentary untranslatable nature of the hybrid convergence of the ethnic, racial, cultural and national intermixtures and constructing what Pascal Casanova terms "The World Republic of Letters." In this paper, I will demonstrate how the very concept of scale is related to literary space as well as how distance creates a poetics of literary landscapes which looks ahead of world literature. Also, I will attempt to find the possibility to relate the "micro-scale" with the "macro-scale," and to construct the scale politics of representation. "Glocalization" is a convenient theoretical tool for the double movement of the up-scale and down-scale.

  • 조선왕릉의 분포 입지 배치에 나타나는 역사지리적 경관 특징과, 조영을 둘러싸고 전개된 권력집단 간의 공간정치학과 풍수담론, 그 속을 관류하고 있는 풍수적 경관 조성 및 관리 양상 등에 대해 검토했다. 조선왕릉의 천릉(遷陵) 과정은 왕조집단의 세력 관계가 풍수를 정략적인 수단과 외피로 하여 나타난 정치적 결과물이었다. 조선 왕조의 정치권력은 왕릉을 정치적 권위를 높이는 상징적 수단으로 활용하였고, 풍수는 정치권력의 의도를 논리적으로 뒷받침하거나 정당화하는 이데올로기적 공간담론으로 기능하였다. 한국풍수사에서 왕릉풍수는 유교이념과 결합된 정치사회적 속성을 지닌 조선시대적인 풍수담론으로 규정할 수 있다.

  • Over the last three decades, the field of American Studies has increasingly paid attention to transnational approaches in an effort to diversify and expand the field's concerns beyond the narrow sense of the nation-state in today's globalizing world. Yet, the mediation of the transnational requires a careful analysis of the nation that is still in transit. In this context, this essay examines Herman Melville's novel Moby-Dick (1851) as a case study that vividly shows how reading American literature and culture through transnationalism not only offers new interpretations of canonical texts, but also helps us to better understand the historical roots and cultural contexts of contemporary issues such as global labor and migration, US citizenship and racial justice. To address the complexity of the text's circulation and reproduction, coupled with US national ideology and cultural conditions, I first turn to the canonization of Melville's Moby-Dick during the Cold War era as a national project and then explore the possibilities of transnational readings by focusing on the politics of race and global capitalism in the nineteenth century whaling industry. In doing so, I argue that critical transnationalism allows readers to keep questioning about their own understanding of race, nation, and cultural identity while remaining attentive to the destructive force of US imperialism and global capitalism in the twenty-first century.

  • The Chinese Belt Road initiatives in the Southeast Asian countries marked a new chapter in the development of China political influence on this region. This article looks at the initiative from the cultural dimension and aims to place its narrative as the entry point to understand the use of identity politics in Asian countries that target the Chinese diaspora. This topic relates to the primordial sentiments of Southeast Asian nations amid massive Chinese investment in the region. The issue of Chinese investments under the Belt Road Initiative corridor has a relationship with the formation of anti-Chinese discourse and anti-communist in some Southeast Asian countries. We took the cases of Indonesian and Malaysian elections to observe the use of identity politics and anti-Chinese political discourse in Southeast Asia. In both cases, a common issue emerged, that of the strengthening both Islamic and indigenous sensibilities. The establishment of ASEAN during the Cold War may be seen then as an anti-thesis to emerging Chinese power. However, anti-Chinese and anti-communism sentiments were not enough to unite the forces of the nations of Southeast Asia. We have concluded that brotherhood, mutual prosperity, and anti-neo-colonialism are yet to be fostered completely to make a distinct ASEAN identity.

  • This article is aimed at understanding the political narratives represented in the National Museum of Indonesia. Starting initially as a colonial museum, the National Museum of Indonesia functioned as a useful tool for the Dutch colonial force to fuel its imaginations of the colonial territory and the people within it. The Dutch used the cultural display to advertize its benevolent colonial rule. All the while, the museum also inevitably reflected orientalism on the people and the culture of the colony. The republic of Indonesia inherited the colonial museum's practices and its display patterns. The business surrounding the museum also played a key role in the newly-born nation-state laying out a future for its redefined territory and people. Thus, what the colonial force imagined for the colonial territory through the study of museum displays was rather directly transferred to the republic without serious consideration of the decolonization process. Four main characteristics have been seen in the museum displays. The first is an emphasis on the glorious Hindu-Buddha history, from which numerous temples, statues, and jewelry have been found. Secondly, the Islamic period, which spanned between the Hindu-Buddha times to the colonial era, has almost completely been eliminated from the display. Third, the colonial era has been depicted as the time of Europe's exportation of scientific tools and adaption of sophisticated living patterns. Fourth, the images of ethnic groups were represented as being stagnant without reflecting any challenges and responses that these groups had faced throughout history. Looking at these display patterns, it can be concluded that all the dynamic internal developments and anti-colonial resistance that took place during the Islamic and Colonial Era have simply not been represented in the museum display. These display patterns do not reflect the real history or culture of the archipelago. Two considerations are thought to have influenced the neglecting of social realities in the display. The first of which is the Dutch's and Republic's apprehension over the possible political upheaval by the Islamic forces. Yet, more fundamentally, cultural displays themselves are distinct from historical education in that the former pays more attention to business ideas with an aim to attract tourists rather than to project objective historical knowledge. Thus, in cultural displays, objects which work to stimulate fantasies and spur curiosity on archipelagic culture tend to be selected and emphasized. In this process, historical objectivity is sometimes considered less vital. Cultural displays are set up to create more appealing narratives for viewers. Therefore, if a narrative loses its luster, it will be replaced by another flashy and newly-resurrected memory. This fact reveals that museums, as transmitters of historical knowledge, have a certain degree of limitation in playing their role.
