The Rise of Feminist Foreign Policy and Implications for South Korea
[Jiso Yoon, Director of Center for International Development and Cooperation at the Korean Women’s Development Institute (KWDI)]
► What is FFP, and what difference will it bring to the international environment that is increasingly driven by state-led security arguments? What implications does the diffusion of FFP have for South Korea as it strives to rise as a global pivotal state?
► FFP still has a long way to go before bringing about changes in the international environment driven by state-led security arguments.
► Nevertheless, promoting gender equality at the global level via FFP can be an effective strategy for South Korea as a middle power to gain greater voice and influence internationally.
