North Korea possesses nuclear weapons, while Iran is poised to
acquire them in the next decade. How the United States and other
nations seek to roll back these burgeoning nuclear powers is among
the most urgent issues of the day. At stake is regional security in
the Persian Gulf and Northeast Asia, America's standing abroad, and
prospects for nuclear non-proliferation. This book offers
complementary international perspectives on these threats and the
peaceful responses to grapple with the Iranian and North Korean
nuclear programs. Leading authorities provide balanced
analyses-together with new chronologies and maps-that make the
volume an invaluable reference for all those interested in
understanding options available in dealing with Iran and North
Korea. The contributors to this volume offer complementary
international perspectives on the critical security issues that
stem from the challenges posed by Iran and North Korea. No other
work combines the analysis of the two countries and explores the
threat posed by each to regional stability and world order. The
book examines how and why attempts to curb the nuclear programs and
broader political ambitions of each nation have failed. It also
examines how each nation, in its own way, has managed to defy the
world's preponderant power, the United States, as well as other
major powers and the United Nations. And it offers analysis on
where the fractured and oscillating relations with these two
nettlesome actors are heading and the long-term implications of
their current trajectories for nuclear proliferation, deterrence,
alliance management, regional security, and world order. Expert,
balanced analyses-augmented by new chronologies and maps-make the
volume an invaluable reference for all those interested in
understanding the options available in dealing with Iran and North
Korea.
