Inhalt:

The end of the Cold War in 1989 brought changes to many communist states, but North Korea remains embroiled in international crises. Looking forward, North Korea seemingly faces three choices: collapse, further war, or peaceful reunification with the south. This historical and political analysis covers the period from the division of the peninsula in 1948 to the future of North Korea beyond 2003. Topics include the Korean War, Kim II Sung, famine, the economic collapse of the 1990s, Kim Jong II, South Korea's sunshine policy, nuclear ambitions, "rogue state" status, and George W. Bush's "axis of evil" remark made during his 2002 State of the Union address. The final chapter considers the case for reconciliation. Appendix A is a chronology of the Korean Peninsula from 2333 BCE to 2003 CE. Appendix B is a directory of Korean Studies institutes and think tanks.
