As I See the Story. . If This Be Imperialism
Holmes Alexander argues that U S involvement in South Korea is not mere domination but a calculated imperialism with both costs and benefits. Korea's wartime sacrifices, investment of about 7 billion dollars, 50,000 U S troops, and 45,000 combat soldiers and 10,000 technicians from Korea in Vietnam are weighed against Korea’s self-sufficiency goals. Park Chung-hee’s regime pursues economic growth, new trade treaties, and Vietnam participation, while maintaining a strong alliance with the United States. The piece defends continued U S engagement and portrays Korea as a strong, independent partner rather than a client state.
