In Red Rogue, Bruce Bechtol analyzes the changing nature of North
Korea’s national defense, foreign policy, and illicit economic
activities in the post–9/11 era. He describes how North Korea has
adapted to a changing global and regional environment to ensure
regime survival and has often dictated the agenda in East Asia.
Bechtol explains why North Korea frequently resorts to brinkmanship
and provocations as foreign policy tools and why North Korea
remains a threat to the United States and South Korea. After a
detailed discussion of North Korea’s internal politics and
foreign policy, Red Rogue examines the diverging U.S. and South
Korean assessments of security on the peninsula, the health of the
rapidly changing South Korea–U.S. alliance, and the badly
deteriorated South Korean civil-military relationship. Using a
framework that focuses on diplomatic, informational, military, and
economic instruments of national power, the author reveals the
dynamic and complicated challenges for security and stability on
the Korean Peninsula. The reader will gain a clear perspective of
the paradigm shifts in U.S., South Korean, and North Korean
policies in recent years. The book is essential reading for
scholars, policymakers, military strategists, and anyone who has an
interest in East Asian affairs.
