Following the death of Kim Jong Il, North Korea has entered a
period of profound transformation laden with uncertainty. This
authoritative book brings together the world s leading North Korea
experts to analyze both the challenges and prospects the country is
facing. Drawing on the contributors expertise across a range of
disciplines, the book examines North Korea s political, economic,
social, and foreign policy concerns. Considering the implications
for Pyongyang s transition, it focuses especially on the
transformation of ideology, the Worker s Party of Korea, the
military, effects of the Arab Spring, the emerging merchant class,
cultural infiltration from the South, Western aid, and global
economic integration. The contributors also assess the impact of
North Korea s new policies on China, South Korea, the United
States, and the rest of the world. Comprehensive and deeply
knowledgeable, their analysis is especially crucial given the power
consolidation efforts of the new leadership underway in Pyongyang
and the implications for both domestic and international politics.
