His early research had a focus on empirical research within socialist societies, investigating the non-socialist agricultural economies of Central Asia and hunter-gatherer societies in Far Eastern Siberia, both under Soviet Russian governance. He explored the tensions between the socialist political-economic system\u2019s conceptions of the environment and ecology and those of people indigenous to those regions. After the collapse of Soviet Russia, his research purview expanded beyond present-day socialist societies, towards a broader historical perspective focused on experiences of the Cold War in Asia. He has completed a manuscript on the changes in religious beliefs in modern Korean society, a society partitioned as a result of war, and is currently undertaking comparative regional research on changes in post-Cold War Asia. In the future he intends to return to his early research interest, the political history of the environment, with plans to use the lens of Mega-Asia to examine Asia\u2019s perspectives on the environmental history of the Cold War and discussions of the global environment.<\/p>\n<h5><strong><span style=\"color: #0076a8;\">Key Publications<\/span><\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>2020. <em>After the Korean War: An Intimate History<\/em>, Cambridge: Cambridge University Press<br \/>\n2012. <em>North Korea: Beyond Charismatic Politics<\/em>, Lanham, MD: Rowman &amp; Littlefield<br \/>\n2010. <em>The Other Cold War<\/em>, New York: Columbia University Press<br \/>\n2008. <em>Ghosts of War in Vietnam<\/em>, Cambridge: Cambridge University Press (winner of the Kahin Prize)<br \/>\n2006. <em>After the Massacre: Commemoration and Consolation in Ha My and My Lai<\/em>, Berkeley: University of California Press (winner of the Geertz prize)<\/p>\n<h5><strong><span style=\"color: #0076a8;\">Other Experience<\/span><\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Visiting Professor, Seoul National University Department of Social Sciences (2019-2021)<br \/>\nSenior Research Fellow in Social Science, Trinity College, University of Cambridge (2011-present)<br \/>\nProfessor, London School of Economics and Political Science Department of Anthropology (2009-2011)<br \/>\nAssociate Professor, University of Edinburgh Department of Social Anthropology (1998-2009)<br \/>\nAssistant Professor, University of Manchester Department of Social Anthropology (1993-1995)<br \/>\nPhD in Social Anthropology, University of Cambridge (1993)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Researcher Bio Heonik Kwon specializes in Social Anthropology.
