Russia’s new eastward policy and transnational development cooperation in the far east

Abstract

The Far East is a transfrontier area where Russia, China, Japan, and the Korean Peninsula meet. As a geographical and strategic factor, the Far East is a cradle of conflict and a symbol of cooperation. From the end of the 19th century until the 20th century, the Far East experienced many conflicts and wars. However, in the 21st century, efforts of East Asian countries are being made to write a new history of cooperation in the Far East. Especially Russia’s New Eastward Policy stimulate the transnational development cooperation in the Far East in some sense. Therefore, mutual cooperation in the Far East, where everyone is profitable, requires mutual consideration to make good use of the network paradigm and to be a useful foundation for practicing global interests.
