AB - Focusing on the dynamics between international environments and national policy-making systems, this article analyzes key features of the Finnish foreign policy having sought for a neutrality and peace diplomacy over the 20th century. Adopting a historical, dynamic and comprehensive perspective, the study argues to evaluate two main characteristics of the Finnish foreign policy in balance: (1) as a passive survival and adaptation strategy of a small country between superpowers and (2) as an active strategy to break the status quo through a diplomatic paradigm shift since the 1970s. For the analysis, it pays attentions not only to the well-studied Paasikivi-Kekkonen Doctrine (Paasikiven-Kekkosen linja) but also to a turn in foreign policy during the late period of Kekkonen’s presidency, and furthermore to the ex-President Mauno Koivisto’s leadership and foreign policy line during a transitional era between 1982 and 1994. The study also examines continual Constitutional reforms in Finland since the late 1980s and their influences on the foreign policy-making system. The conclusion reflects extensive implications of the evolving foreign policy model of Finland on the context of the Korean Peninsula looking forward to a transformational process into an alternative security and cooperation order.
