A country of stark contradictions and puzzles, North Korea's
uncanny resilience in the face of external shocks and internal woes
raises important questions of theoretical and real-world
significance. What has made it possible for North Korea to defy the
classical realist axiom, the strong do what they have the power to
do and the weak accept what they have to accept? What is the nature
of the North Korean threat in post-Cold War Northeast Asia? What
kind of bargaining leverage does Pyongyang exercise in
system-maintaining survival strategies? What are North Korea's
prospects for sustaining such survival strategies in the uncertain
years ahead? This volume offers a major reappraisal of the changing
relationship between North Korea and its neighbouring powers in the
post-Cold War era in both theoretical and practical terms. The
contributors examine the complex interplay of global, regional and
national forces that have influenced and shaped the changing
patterns of conflict and co-operation in North Korea's
relationships with China, Russia, Japan and the United States.
