The Chinese urge for the imperial power is a major threat to the today’s peaceful
international order. Such arrogant and delusional goal could be the very critical obstacle
against the Korean security and national interests due to the geographical proximity. Today,
the interesting dynamic of Uyghur nationalism, Uyghur terrorism, and the oppressive Chinese
state terrorism could provide an meaningful prediction for the situation that the Korean
nation may face in the future. In this regard, the present paper describes the interaction
between Uyghur nationalism, Uyghur terrorism, and the Chinese state terrorism. The today’s
terrorism is a multi-dimensional security matter in that national independence, political and
economic discrimination, non-state terrorism, and the hegemony competition among
superpowers are intricately interrelated. Uyghur terrorism and related matter tend to show
the nature of today’s terrorism as a multi-dimensional security matter.
