책 소개
The relationship between the Republic of Korea and the Kingdom of Morocco is not merely a subject of academic inquiry for me; it is a profound connection rooted in a shared history of service and a deep-seated respect for a culture that I consider my second home. In 1994, I had the distinct honor of serving as an active-duty Captain in the Republic of Korea Army, deployed to the Moroccan Sahara region as part of the United Nations Peacekeeping Operations UN PKO. Serving within the Korean Medical Unit KMU in support of MINURSO, I witnessed firsthand the quiet dignity of the Moroccan people and the vast, peaceful expanse of the desert, an experience that forever transformed my worldview. This period of my life was defined by the realization that Morocco, situated at the northwestern tip of Africa, has historically served as a crucial crossroads connecting Europe, Africa, and the Arab world. Today, as I stand before my students teaching courses on Peace Studies and the Ethics of International Politics, I do not speak from theory alone, but rather I draw upon the sands of the Sahara and the spirit of humanitarian duty I experienced decades ago to ground complex geopolitical concepts in human reality. This book Morocco-Korea Bridge of Peace & Shared Vision, is born from that dual identity—as a former peacekeeper who walked the land and as a scholar committed to the public values that sustain global order.
Morocco occupies a unique position in global history, demonstrating a remarkable capacity for cultural assimilation and an inclination to integrate external influences into its own rich fabric. Unlike many nations that might resist external cultural imposition, Morocco has transformed diverse influences— Amazigh, Arabs and Europeans—into integral parts of its national identity. This inherent openness is central to Morocco's philosophy of peace, characterized by a non-belligerent foreign policy and a tradition of never maliciously invading or forcibly expanding its territory into other nations. This spirit of tolerance is perhaps best exemplified by Morocco’s historical reception of displaced populations, such as the migrants from the Iberian Peninsula who found haven in the High Atlas Mountains after the Reconquista. Furthermore, the bond between Morocco and South Korea is seasoned by a unique history of mutual support, including Morocco’s noble participation in the Korean War by providing medical aid and sending Moroccan soldiers to fight, even before achieving its own full independence from France. This foundation of solidarity was further reinforced by the ongoing efforts of both nations to build a future-oriented partnership, moving beyond past solidarity toward deep cooperation in industrial technology and infrastructure.
As we look toward the future, this volume explores how this historical foundation can be leveraged to solve contemporary challenges through the application of John Rawls's Principle of Difference to the Moroccan Sahara issue. We argue that true social stability, or "negentropy," can be achieved by prioritizing the well-being of the least advantaged through affirmative action policies. Such measures include the proactive preservation of the saharan language, Hassaniya Dialect, and the integration of saharan history into regional school curricula to prevent cultural erosion. By expanding opportunities for higher education through university admission set-asides and increasing civil service quotas for the saharan population, Morocco can foster deeper social integration and reduce the risk of alienation. These proposals shift the paradigm from a purely political or security-focused approach to a holistic strategy rooted in social justice and human development.
