It can never be overemphasized that academic exchange and networking by scholars from these three countries are definitely of utmost importance in fostering an amicable regional order. Since 2011, experts and scholars from Korea University, University of Tokyo, and Tsinghua University have jointly organized the East Asian Community Forum (EACF) as a trilateral exchange mechanism to discuss a wide range of issues and problems, including peace, development, and cooperation in East Asia.  The year 2014 marks the 120th anniversary of the Sino-Japanese War (1894-1895). The lessons of history are worth learning, but the future is more important. In commemoration of the start of the war, the three parties agreed to hold the 4th EACF on September 28, 2014, at Tsinghua University on the theme of “The Formation and Future of International Order in East Asia.” Topics on the agenda include how to draw lessons from history and how to recognize and analyze security problems in East Asia, the development and transformation of the region’s economic and trade situation, and prospects for regional cooperation.             Forum Schedule   September 27 (Saturday) Check-in at Tsinghua Unisplendour International Center (nearby Tsinghua University East Gate) 18:00-20:30  Welcome Banquet  (Location: Unis Center 1st floor)Chair: Jiangyong Liu, Vice Dean, Institute of Modern International Relations, Tsinghua UniversityAttendees: Delegates from China, Japan, and the ROK and the conference organizersSelf-introduction time for delegatesBanquet Speech:• Hak-joon Kim, President, Northeast Asian History Foundation• Tadashi Kimiya, Director, Center for Contemporary Korean Studies, University of Tokyo       September 28 (Sunday)  Time: 9:00 am-4:10 pm Time ：8:20-9:00  RegistrationLocation：Conference Room (2nd floor), School of Law, Tsinghua UniversityPreliminary meeting：8:30-9:00Attendees：Delegates from China, Japan, and the ROK and interpretersLocation：Conference Room (4th floor), School of Law, Tsinghua University   9:00-9:20    Opening CeremonyChair: Jiangyong Liu, Vice Dean, Institute of Modern International Relations, Tsinghua UniversitySpeeches:• Xuetong Yan, Dean, Institute of Modern International Relations, Tsinghua University• Tadashi Kimiya, Director, Center for Contemporary Korean Studies, University of Tokyo• Jong-wha Lee, Director, Asiatic Research Institute, Korea University   Session 1：Change and Inspiration since the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895（Keynote address: One person from each country，20 mins/person, total 60 mins；Comment: One person in each country, 5-8 mins/person, question and discussion time, up to 40 mins.）Chair: Professor Tadashi Kimiya, Director, Center for Contemporary Korean Studies, University of Tokyo  9:20-9:40     “Four Portraits of Post-war in Modern East Asia” --Yujiro Murata, Professor, University of Tokyo   9:40-10:00  “Sovereignty of Diaoyu Islands Surveyed through International Law and Order after WWII” --Jiangyong Liu, Professor, Tsinghua University   10:00-10:20  “Role Convergence and Great Power Relations: U.S.-China Cooperation and North Korea’s Nuclear Issues in a Regional Security Complex” --Key-young Son, Professor, Asiatic Research Institute, Korea University  10:20-10:30  Tea Break Location：Conference Room (4th floor), School of Law, Tsinghua University   10:30-11:10 Comments & Discussion• Jae-bok Cha, Research Fellow, Northeast Asian History Foundation• Masaru Tonomura, Associate Professor, University of Tokyo• Lili Zhang, Professor, China Foreign Affairs University     Session 2：Change and Regional Cooperation in East Asia's Security EnvironmentChair: Ruiping Jiang, Vice President, China Foreign Affairs University  11:10-11:30  “Regional Security Dynamics and Challenges in Northeast Asia: Implications for East Asian Community Building” --Shin-wha Lee, Professor, Korea University  11:30-11:50 “Security Guarantee and National Reconciliation” --Toyomi Asano, Professor, Chukyo University  11:50-12:10 “The Perspectives of East Asia Security: Japan’s Strategic Thinking and Recent Trends in Military Simulation” --Haikuan Gao, Vice President, the Society of Sino-Japanese Relations History  12:10-13:20 LunchLocation：Conference Room (4th floor), School of Law, Tsinghua University   13:20-14:00 Comments & Discussion• Jung-nam Lee, Professor, Asiatic Research Institute, Korea University• Tadashi Kimiya, Professor, University of Tokyo• Jiping Hu, Director of Institute of Japanese Studies, China Institute of Contemporary International Relations     Session 3：Prospects of Multilateral Cooperation of Trade and Investment in East Asia Chair: Jong-wha Lee, Director, Asiatic Research Institute, Korea University  14:00-14:20  “Major issues of Mutual Benefits and Political Trust in China-Japan-ROK Cooperation” --Ruiping Jiang, Professor, China Foreign Affairs University  14:20-14:40 “Air Pollution in East Asia and the Possibility of China-Japan-ROK Cooperation: History Review as an Example of the Rice Culture Association” --Yutaka Tonooka, Professor, Saitama University  14:40-15:00  “A Comparison between TPP Negotiation and China-Japan-ROK FTA Negotiations: Major Obstacles in the Fields of Agricultural” --Yuichi Takayasu, Professor, Daito Bunka University  15:00-15:20  “Recent Development in International Trade and Economic Cooperation in East Asia” --Moon-sung Kang, Professor, Korea University  15:20-16:20 Comments & Discussion• Su-jin Kong, Professor, Asiatic Research Institute, Korea University• Toru Fujita, Director, Fujita Institute of East Asian Studies• Yuechun Jiang, Research Fellow, China Institute of International Studies• David D.
