Korea is one of the critical flashpoints in the world today. News
of North Korea's recent nuclear tests, conducted in defiance of
international pressure, drew widespread condemnation and raised
serious concerns about the threat now posed to regional and
international security by the regime of North Korea's dear leader
Kim Jong-Il.
This book penetrates the veil surrounding the conflict on the
Korean peninsula and North Korea's missile and nuclear programmes.
It provides a thorough historical analysis of relations between the
two Koreas since the Korean War, which traces both North Korea's
path to economic ruin and South Korea's transition from struggling
dictatorship to vibrant democracy.
As well as examining the political and economic development of
North and South Korea at the domestic level, the book goes on to
explore regional relations with Russia, China and Japan and, most
importantly, America's dealings with Korea and its negotiations
with North Korea, in particular. It concludes with an analysis of
North Korea's current nuclear programme and its likely impact on
international security in the 21st century.
