Claudius Kim

Claudius (Kyung Yeob) Kim is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Clements Center for National Security. He received a Ph.D. in Modern Korean and Chinese History from Stanford University. Drawing on multilingual archives from China, Korea, Japan, and the U.S., his research focuses on the transnational history of war, migration, and socialist movements in the twentieth-century East Asia. His current book project, Revolution on the Move: Korean Migrants and Sino-Korean Relations in Trans-War East Asia, 1932–58, examines the intertwined histories of Chinese and Korean revolutions through the transnational lens of Korean diaspora over the course of WWII, the Chinese Civil War, and the Korean War. He holds a B.S. in Global China Studies from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
