However\, the problem for Americans is that in some instances the Trump administration has simply unveiled the crass and often racist practices that have long informed US government behavior. Put differently\, Donald Trump and his supporters exacerbate bad situations\, yet some of the situations were bad to begin with. This is abundantly clear with regards to American policy towards mutual Northeast Asian allies\, South Korea and Japan. \nAlexis Dudden \nProfessor of History \nUniversity of Connecticut \nAlexis Dudden is professor of history at the University of Connecticut\, where she teaches modern Japanese\, Korean\, and international history. She publishes regularly in print and online media and is completing a book project tentatively called\, The Opening and Closing of Japan\, 1850-2020. Dudden received her BA from Columbia University in 1991 and her PhD in history from the University of Chicago in 1998. Since 1985\, she has lived and studied for extended periods of time in Japan and South Korea. \nClick here to register  \nFor more information\, please contact Havva Karakas-Keles or to request additional accommodation arrangements please contact Morgan Bicknell\, mebickne@syr.edu.
