This comprehensive book explains that while world politics has
entered the post-Cold War era since the late 1980s, the Korean
peninsula has not. Diplomatic relations have yet to be established
between North Korea, the US and Japan, while conventional military
confrontation has persisted. Pyongyang's nuclear weapons programme
has further increased tensions and the possibility of war has
frequently been considered. In this rigorously theoretical work,
the author analyses the tension on the peninsula through three very
different perspectives: the security dilemma and misperceptions;
domestic politics and ideology; and the influence of external
actors. Recognizing that existing explanations do not take full
account of the multi-dimensional character of Korean security
problems, efforts are made in this book to understand how various
interrelated factors are at work, and which of them matter most
under different conditions. This book provides an invaluable and
balanced understanding of the complex nature of post-Cold War
security problems on the peninsula. Academics, researchers and
post-graduate students interested in issues pertaining to security
on the Korean peninsula, and on US policy towards North Korea will
find much to engage them within this book, as will those interested
in politics and international relations more generally. The
in-depth analyses of current issues of interest and their policy
implications will also appeal to policymakers.
