In international politics we have ‘'double’' security dilemmas: inseparably intertwined adversary and alliance security dilemmas. In abandonment and entrapment fears, which constitute the alliance security dilemma, balancing logic and public goods (or free-riding) logic are embedded respectively. In this paper, I will first reconstruct Stephen Walt’s balance-of-threat theory and Glenn Snyder’s concept of the alliance security dilemma into a new single theory—Net Threat Theory—that provides a new balancing logic for overcoming the contradiction between the conventional balancing logic and public goods logic. Then, based on the logic of Net Threat Theory, I will outline the alliance dynamics in Northeast Asia in the post-Cold War era, addressing the issue of the Korea-Japan-U.S. alignment and the regional stability, and finally, deriving policy implications as well.
