Abstract

This chapter reviews the development and obstacles to military security cooperation between Russia and South Korea, primarily focusing on the arms trade. It offers a unique perspective of the arms trade, departing from the traditional political and military security interpretation and seeing it instead from a non-traditional economic security approach. It begins with a general discussion of the Russian arms trade in the post-Soviet period and then focuses on the two arms trade projects called “Brown Bear” projects. The chapter considers the implications of the arms trade for bilateral Russian-South Korean relations and illustrates how the arms trade can enhance both the traditional and non-traditional national security of Russia and South Korea.
