Despite the dynamics of interactions, the actor-network around convergence has not been effectively stabilised yet, as the politics of convergence is complex and marked by paradoxical featuresNa temelju kvalitativnih podatkov o udeležencih konvergence v Koreji članek obravnava proces konvergence z različnih vidikov in proučuje vpletenost interesov udeležencev. Ključna vprašanja so: (1) Kakšno strategijo je sprejela Koreja? (2) Kateri družbeni in politični dejavniki so vplivali na oblikovanje strategije? (3) Kako so različni interesi uveljavili ideologije, s katerimi akterji oblikujejo strategije na temelju svojih interesov?
