This book explores the way in which modern Korea perceived its closest geographic neighbours, namely China, Japan and Russia. It examines how Korean nationalism and understandings of modernity in the crucially important formative period spanning the 1880s to 1945 were largely shaped by the images of Korea's neighbours to the east, west and north. Introducing new sources presented in English for the first time, and including themes such as race and ethnicity, global revolution, and gender, this book will be of great interest to students and scholars of Korean, East Asian and Russian history, as well as historians of the colonial/modern era more generally.
