CAMBRIDGE - The great-power competition between the United States and China is a defining feature of the first part of this century, but there is little agreement on how it should be characterized.

LJUBLJANA - Lea Ypi’s Free: Coming of Age at the End of History has met with a hostile reception in her home country of Albania, and it is easy to see why. Her self-description as a “Marxist Albanian professor of political theory at the London School of Economics” says it all.

Faced with hypercompetitive work environments and grim job prospects, many of the country’s young workers and middle-class professionals have embraced the “lying flat” movement - which means opting out of the culture of overwork and consumerism - while...

Finalization of the Korean Peninsula's peace process
The continuing separation between North and South Korea has made the Korean Peninsula a subject of global attention for several decades.

Downtown Seoul's hidden space: suitable for underground live music venue
A previously unknown underground space has been found below the city center. Currently being called the “hidden space” (“sumeun gonggan” in Korean), it is shrouded in mystery - but not a particularly ugly history, like the Japanese air raid shelter next to Gyeonghui Palace or the secret bunker of Yeouido. It’s just a discarded, forgotten corridor that was probably intended fo...
