Korean peninsula, north and south, in the world of 2032? What
are some major drivers of change that will create the Korea of
2032? What are possible scenarios for urbanisation and Korean
cities? How will an immersive digital environment affect

Studies will hold a Workshop at the School of Oriental and
African Studies, University of London, on 17 November 2012 on
the topic of ‘Korea’s Place in the World: Now and Twenty Years
Hence’. We invite paper presenters to turn their expertise to
the future, particularly in the fields of urbanisation,
demography, and the digital revolution, and consider Korea as a
case study. We will favour proposals that address the impact of
technology on society and social change, and papers from
post-graduate students are particularly welcome. All full papers
submitted will be considered for publication in the Papers of
the British Association for Korean Studies, after a peer review.</span></font><br>
