As George Modelski and William Thompson argue that modern world system is an “oceanic system,” one has to focus on the competition for the maritime hegemony to understand geopolitics in the Northeast Asia. The regime of freedom of the seas is in distress in the 21st century East Asia as the US hegemony over the ocean is checked by the growth of the Chinese anti-access/area-denial forces. The realists think order and peace are established through the balance of power while the liberals think they are established through cooperation within international regimes. Theorists of both streams share prospects of peace between the US and China either through balance of power or cooperation in the liberal international regime. What is problematic is that the peaceful relationship between the two world powers could not necessary extend to the security of the regional countries surrounding continental China. Small countries under pressure from China would invite the US to keep maritime hegemony in this region. Korea can secure its position through strengthening of a liberal regime in this region, as it is joining the complex interdependence among advanced industrial democracies. Korea-US-Japan cooperation can reach out China for regional stability and develop a favorable environment for the peaceful reunification of the Korean peninsula.
