An erratic, aging North Korean leadership intent on dynastic
succession and development of nuclear weapons is attracting a lot
of attention in the Asia-Pacific Region -- an area of utmost
importance to the United States. Current concerns about security in
Korea provide the backdrop to this volume, which offers an overview
of the evolution of security on the Korean peninsula and an
assessment of the U.S. role there from the 1940s to the present. A
distinctive feature of this volume is the long historical
perspective that is brought to bear on contemporary security
dilemmas. The renowned contributors examine U.S. policy prior to
and during the Korean War and look at the subsequent changes in
U.S. commitment to South Korea during a period of global stalemate
that had been shaped in part by the war itself. The authors then
assess the future of U.S.-Korean relations within the context of
the changing international environment, considering the prospects
for future strife, the merits of a cooperative security system, and
the possibility of reunification.
