Summary:

As the global political order rapidly approaches the onset of the twenty-first century, the explosive situation in the Korean Peninsula is poised to upset the peace and security of Northeast Asia and the rest of the world. This timely book, with contributions by distinguished experts in the field, addresses the fragility of the political, economic, and military balance within the two Koreas and in Northeast Asia. The chapters provide in-depth analysis of the principal factors that gave rise to the persisting Cold War on the Korean peninsula and successfully unravel many aspects of the complicated domestic and economic dynamics of the two Koreas and the patterns of relationship between the two rival states as well as their changing relationships with the United States and other major powers.
