As the global political order enters the twenty-first century, the
cold war endures on the Korean peninsula, which has been since the
early days of the cold war and remains one of the most dangerous
flashpoints in the world. The fragility of the political, economic,
and military balance within the two Koreas and in Northeast Asia
stubbornly persists, and it is deeply worrisome to policymakers,
diplomats, academics, and all watchers of contemporary East Asian
affairs. It is noteworthy that most of the problems studied in this
volume show no sign of abating.
The contributors to this book, most with direct, hands-on
experience dealing with the issues being studied, provide in-depth
and perceptive analysis of the principal factors that gave rise to
the persisting cold war on the Korean peninsula. To a significant
extent, they have successfully unraveled many aspects of the
complicated domestic and economic dynamics of the two Koreas and
the pattern of relations between the two rival states of Korea as
well as their changing relations with the United States and other
major powers.
