Peace in the East
On October 26, 1909, the Korean patriot An Chunggun assassinated the Japanese statesman Ito Hirobumi in Harbin, China. More than a century later, the ramifications of An’s daring act continue to reverberate across East Asia and beyond. This volume explores the abiding significance of An, his life, and his written work, most notably On Peace in the East (Tongyang p’yonghwaron), from a variety of perspectives, especially historical, legal, literary, philosophical, and political. The ways in which An has been understood and interpreted by contemporaries, by later generations, and by scholars and thinkers even today shed light on a range of significant issues including the intellectual and philosophical underpinnings for both imperial expansion and resistance to it; the ongoing debate concerning whether violence, or even terrorism, is ever justified; and the possibilities for international cooperation in today’s East Asia as a regional collective. Students and scholars of East Asia will find much to engage with and learn from in this volume.

Socio-psychological Mechanisms of Generation and Dissemination of Network Curse Words
With the swift development of computer technology, network curse words are increasingly polluting the cyber-environment, leaving individuals and society with immeasurable psychological and physical loss. This study explores social and psychological mechanisms of network curse words in terms of network salutation, pragmatic identity, linguistic adaptation, primacy effect, memetics, group think, prejudice, conformity, and group emotions. It is concluded that network salutation curse words were supported by pragmatic mechanisms; primacy effect may exert great influence on network curse words; network curse words are considered as a branch of language and may be explained with memetics; group think may lead to network curse words; constructing pragmatic identities with network curse words reflects irrational social psychology and psychological conformity; prejudice is a negative psychological assessment resulting in network curse words; conformity may leave the public with loss of judgments, stimulating group emotions and influencing harmony and health of social psychology.
