Abstract
This article examines the applicability of the Military Revolution Thesis to late Joseon dynasty history (1599-1897), comparing the recent discussions in Anglo-American and Korean academia. The military changes in Joseon following the Imjin War (1592-8) and the Manchu Invasions (1636-7), particularly the shift from cavalry to infantry tactics and the adoption of gunpowder weapons, are explored through the lens of the military revolution theory. By comparing and critically assessing the scholarship of No Yŏnggu, Kim Yeong-joon, Tonio Andrade, and Hyeok Hweon Kang, the study evaluates the similarities and differences between European and Joseon military transformations. It highlights the limitations of directly applying the Eurocentric military revolution theory to Joseon, emphasizing the need to consider Joseon’s unique historical and cultural context. This article contributes to a broader understanding of military changes in late Joseon and positions them within global military history, arguing for a more nuanced approach to interpreting military innovations outside Europe.
