ASAN PLENUM 2016

The 2016 Asan Plenum put “gloom and doom” in the forefront as the “New Normal,” while offering repeated hints of a polarized “New Order” in Northeast Asia. Instead of deepening troubles awakening states to shared interests in “peace and stability,” they are accelerating a trend toward reinterpreting interests in a zero-sum manner. North Korea’s provocative actions are intensifying, China’s rejection of joint moves to enhance security is becoming more blatant, nervousness about the US primaries is palpable, and South Korea’s foreign policy reorientation is now unmistakable. The view from Seoul abruptly upgrades the danger emanating from Kim Jong-un while downplaying the concern about Abe Shinzo. It recasts the US-ROK-China triangle even as many appear perplexed about US policies post Obama and China’s policies under Xi Jinping’s growing hubris. In this synopsis of threads running through the plenum, the dark side stands out in assessments of recent interactions as a spotlight is shone on the way commentaries reveal the deeper forces of regional realignment.
