Democracy has re-emerged as the key issue in the international community, with the rapidly spreading wave of democratization in North Africa and the Middle East. Against this backdrop, this session will discuss the expected leadership of the Republic of Korea which achieved both industrialization and democratization within a generation for promoting democracy and human rights in the Asian region.

북아프리카 및 중동지역에서 민주화 운동이 급속히 확산되면서 ‘민주주의’가 국제사회의 화두로 다시 부상하고 있는 가운데 불과 한 세대 만에 산업화와 민주화 인권 증진을 동시에 달성한 한국에 기대되는 아시아지역 민주주의 및 인권 증진을 위한 리더십에 대해 논의해 봅니다
