Gi-Wook Shin: How South Korea Deals with Brain Drain


Listen Later

Many have argued about the determining factor behind Korea's rapid development and miracle transformation. Some suggested due to their economic policy; some emphasized the country's democratization process.

Enriching our understanding of Korea's unparalleled evolution, this conversation tries to cover from a different perspective—featuring a political and historical-comparative sociologist who has been teaching at Stanford University for more than 20 years Gi-Wook Shin.
Prof. Shin highlights the undeniable influence of soft power and Koreans' competitive nature. Furthermore, he explores the potential threat that might turn the country's successful modern history upside-down: demographic and democratic crises.
In addition, he also talks about his modified theory of brain drain and how this phenomenon has been playing a role in shaping two of Asia's hegemonies, China and India, as well as how we can learn from them.
