Journal Descriptions
Pacific Focus (originally Inha Journal of International Studies) was first published in 1986 and is issued three times a year. The journal offers a broad interdisciplinary platform for scholarly research on contemporary issues in the Asia‑Pacific region, emphasizing international relations, security studies, political economy, and socio‑cultural analysis. Its articles contribute to the academic and policy discourse by examining systemic geopolitical dynamics, evolving regional architectures, state and non‑state actors’ interactions, and societal transformations shaped by globalization and regional integration. Pacific Focus attracts contributors from universities, research institutes, and think tanks, fostering comparative perspectives that span Northeast Asia, Southeast Asia, Australia, Oceania, and beyond. The journal’s scope includes but is not limited to studies on power transitions, alliance politics, economic development, environmental cooperation, migration flows, and the implications of major power competition in the Pacific Basin. By integrating theoretical insights with empirical findings, the journal enhances understanding of regional security architectures and socio‑economic challenges of the Pacific world. Its editorial rigor and multidisciplinary approach make it a vital resource for scholars, graduate students, and policy stakeholders seeking comprehensive analysis of Pacific regionalism and global interconnections.
