The Fourth Industrial Revolution (the 4th IR hereafter) is a global buzzword, being described as if yesterday's science fiction is becoming today's reality. In the 1984 film The Terminator, an “Android” with artificial intelligence is sent back in time from 2029 to 1984. As the year 2029 is only 10 years away from now, the advancement of the 4th IR technologies is
 aising the possibility of an “Android” making an appearance. If so, what change can possibly be made to international politics when the 4th IR continues to march forward? Beyond individuals and communities, the 4th IR would accompany changes pertinent to sovereign states if they remain the units of international relations, and hence it is imperative to think about how states should be prepared for such changes.
I. The Characteristics of the 4th IR
II. The 4th IR and Changes in International Politics
(1) Changes in National Capabilities and the International System
(2) Changing National Security and Trade Environment
III. The 4th IR and Korea’s “Science and Technology Diplomacy”
