This is the fifth session of the 2020-2021 webinar series of the ERC project team, "Aftermath of the East Asian War of 1592-1598". In this session, professor James B. Lewis of the University of Oxford will share his thoughts on the economic impacts of the Japanese invasions of Korea.

BACKGROUND
The “Aftermath of the East Asian War of 1592-1598” project is a five year, European Research Council Starting Grant project (2018-2023) run by ICREA professor Rebekah Clements at the Autonomous University of Barcelona. The project seeks to understand the legacy of the East Asian War of 1592-1598, also known as the Imjin War and Toyotomi Hideyoshi’s invasions of Korea. Aftermath will be the first large scale investigation to combine Japanese, Korean, and Chinese sources in order to understand, not the war itself, but something which is arguably even more important: the aftermath and its implications for early modern East Asia. Our research focuses on three themes; Social change / Environment and economy / Diffusion of Technology. For more information about the “Aftermath of the East Asian War of 1592-1598” project, please go to our website  https://aftermath.uab.cat/news/ .

This project has received funding from the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (grant agreement No 758347)

Kind regards,
