ABSTRACT

This paper analyzed the trends of Myanmar studies in Korea by using text mining. This attempted to find the tendencies of research on Myanmar in Korea and to bring new discussions in light of “New Southern Policy (NSP)”. The corpus of Myanmar research were built for the extraction of “keyword” and “co-occurring words”, which was utilized to visualize networks of intellectual structures on the Myanmar research. Prior to Myanmar’s reform and opening, Myanmar research in Korea showed a tendency to be subordinate to other research. In addition, Myanmar was partly studied only in terms with local understanding. On the other hand, after the reform and opening, Myanmar research started to obtain an independent position as a research subject in Korea. The perspective to see Myanmar was also changed from an “object” to an “economic partner”. However, these results were derived from a drive from a perspective of economic interests. Therefore, it is necessary to discuss a new direction of Myanmar research from viewpoints of establishing mutual trust.
