  • Chapter 4 the Korean Peninsula: “Nuclear Weapons State” North Korea Aiming to Become an Economic Power, ROK Seeking Active Deterrence Capability
    Chapter 4 The Korean Peninsula: “Nuclear Weapons State” North Korea Aiming to Become an Economic Power, ROK Seeking Active Deterrence Capability n the year since the death of Chairman of the National Defense Commission IKim Jong Il, North Korea (Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, DPRK) has taken steps to bolster the Kim Jong Un regime and Park Geun-hye of the conservative Saenuri Party has been elected as the next president of the Republic of Korea (ROK or South Korea). There has been no easing of North- South confrontation, and the problems posed by North Korea’s nuclear and missile program grow more serious, so the security situation in the region remains as challenging as ever. In February 2012, the United States and North Korea had direct dialogue more than three years after the Six-Party Talks were suspended. This was followed by announcement of an agreement between the two countries (the so-called Leap Day Agreement). The agreement was effectively scuttled, however, when the new North Korean constitution drawn up under Kim Jong Un described the country as a nuclear weapons state and North Korea launched a missile under the guise of putting an earth observation satellite into orbit with an Unha 3 rocket on April 13. This missile launch was a failure, but North Korea proceeded to launch another missile on December 12, 2012, demonstrating improvements in the technology relating to flight stability and flight accuracy. On February 12, 2013, the country conducted its third nuclear test, driving home its claim to be a nuclear weapons state.

The first (No. 138) deals with Kwantung Arm's wartime vigil throughout Manchuria in prepa- ration for operations. The second (No. 154) deals with actual military operations against Soviet forces on the eastern front. This monograph, No. 155, covers operations in the northern and western parts of Manchuria and also in northern Korea. Like No. 154, this monograph is actually a collection of closely related sub-monographs, each a separate--but by no means complete--study in itself.

  • 7 Common Misconceptions About World War II
    Seven Common Misconceptions about World War II World War II ended three-quarters of a century ago. Now only a tiny and fast- dwindling number of Americans still possess an active memory of the conflict, and most of the rest of us view what happened through the gauzy tissue of fiction and faulty memory. The United States won the war, didn’t we? Through the unparalleled courage of the “Greatest Generation” and the awesome industrial power of our economy, we overwhelmed the Nazi juggernaut in little more than three years and brought Imperial Japan to her knees in less than four. Well, yes. There’s more than a fair measure of truth in all that. In fact, it’s true as far as it goes. But the story of the Second World War is far, far bigger, and far more complex. Most Americans labor under misconceptions about its true nature. And that truth is hiding in plain sight for anyone willing to look closely. Here goes . #1. World War II lasted for four years. Some historians consider World Wars I and II to be part of a single protracted conflict— a twentieth-century Thirty Years’ War, if you will. Others argue that the second global war began in 1931 when Japan’s renegade Kwantung Army engineered the Mukden Incident and subsequently invaded Manchuria. Others still might contend that the Italian invasion of Abyssinia (Ethiopia) in 1935-37 or the German and Italian involvement in the Spanish Civil War in 1936-39, usually thought a dry run for the Axis, should be considered of a piece with the global conflict.

  • Current Affairs in North Korea, 2010-2017: a Collection of Research Notes
    235 Current Affairs in North Korea, 2010-2017: A Collection of Research Notes Rudiger Frank Abstract Starting with the public introduction of Kim Jong-un to the public in autumn of 2010 and ending with observations of consumerism in February 2017, this collection of 16 short research notes that were originally published at 38North discusses some of the most crucial issues, aside from the nuclear problem, that dominated the field of North Korean Studies in the past decade. Left in their original form, these short articles show the consistency of major North Korean policies as much as the development of our understanding of the new leader and his approach. Topics covered include the question of succession, economic statistics, new ideological trends such as pyŏngjin, techno- logical developments including a review of the North Korean tablet computer Samjiyŏn, the Korean unification issue, special economic zones, foreign trade, parliamentary elections and the first ever Party congress since 1980.

  • Explaining the Pattern of the Dprk‟S Foreign Policy
    EXPLAINING THE PATTERN OF THE DPRK‟S FOREIGN POLICY TOWARD MAJOR STATES: AN ANALYSIS OF DOMESTIC POLICY PRIORITIES OF NORTH KOREA ON FOREIGN POLICY by SUKHOON HONG (Under the Direction of Han S. Park) ABSTRACT This dissertation starts with the question of what factors influence whether North Korea chooses to implement risky or cooperative policies toward major states, as well as what role domestic politics and ideology play in the DPRK‟s formation and enactment of foreign policy. This study also seeks to explain why North Korea chooses a hard line foreign policy and when it chooses to engage with surrounding states. To find answers to these questions, the domestic priorities behind foreign policies are analyzed within the framework of human needs development theory. In this theory, North Korean foreign policy goals are motivated by three domestic priorities or preferences: security, identity and prosperity. This study set up three hypotheses based on this theoretical framework. The hypotheses assumed that the DPRK‟s foreign policy is determined primarily by the demands of “national security” relative to the U.S.; North Korea‟s foreign policy toward South Korea is determined by the “identity need”; Pyongyang‟s foreign policy toward China is mostly based on a desire for “economic prosperity.” In order to test these hypotheses, this study employs the “process-tracing” method, and also observes the official newspaper of Pyongyang regime, through content analysis in order to determine the DPRK‟s perception and policy preference toward major states such as the United States, South Korea and China. From the theoretical standpoint, this study proposes that North Korea is not abnormal or atypical, that is, the foreign policy goals of North Korea are not drastically different from any other country.

  • Kim Jong-Un's New Entourage
    Kim Jong-un’s New Entourage By Andy Lim Understanding Pyongyang Inner Circle Studying Pyongyang leadership is an unenviable task, much like Kremlinologists who received no credit for their work after they failed to predict the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, but it should not be a thankless one. When confronted with a regime as closed and as secretive as Pyongyang’s, the only way for scholars to get around the fog is to capitalize on the little information available, although sometimes those information might turn out to be unreliable. That task becomes even more difficult when dealing with a regime in Pyongyang that purges officials on a regular basis, where the term Pyongyang shuffle, a seemingly poor Machiavellian joke is used to demonstrate how quickly people can fall from grace. But this behavior is not entirely unreasonable because we have an actor in the Kim dynasty that has every self-interest to do anything to maintain its power. Luckily for them, they have just the right authoritarian tools of control at its disposal – the ability to purge anyone they perceived to be a threat to their power without substantial consequences. This piece, in its attempt to examine the up and rising military and party officials who have emerged under Kim Jong-un during the past two years, might seem like a Sisyphean task given the opacity and the quick turnaround rate of purges in Pyongyang. But in trying to understand who in the post-Jang period are most likely to fill the power vacuum besides the Dear Leader, one can piece together how Kim Jong-un reshuffles his key personnel to accomplish his ultimate goal of consolidating his unitary leadership.

When, why, and to what extent did North Korea eventually pursue a path of ideological independence from Soviet Marxism- Leninism? Scholars typically answer these interrelated questions by referencing Korea’s historical legacies, such as Chosŏn period Confucianism, colonial subjugation, and Kim Il Sung’s guerrilla experience. The result is a rather localized understanding of North Korean ideology and its development, according to which North Korean ideology was rooted in native soil and, on the basis of this indigenousness, inevitably developed in contradistinction to Marxism-Leninism. Drawing on Eastern European archival materials and North Korean theoretical journals, the present study challenges our conventional views about North Korean ideology.

  • What Does North Korea Want from China? Understanding Pyongyang’S Policy Priorities Toward Beijing
    What Does North Korea Want from China? Understanding Pyongyang’s Policy Priorities toward Beijing Sukhoon Hong What influences the role domestic policy priorities and ideology play in North Korea’s enactment of foreign policy toward China? Historically, both North Korea and China are communist nations that share cultural characteristics. Currently, the Sino-North Korea alliance still seems effective and valid. When looking at China, North Korea does not perceive any struggle with regard to security and regime legitimacy. Thus it is reasonable to assume that Pyongyang’s foreign policy toward China is mostly based on a desire for “economic prosperity.” In order to test this hypothesis, this study employs the “process-tracing” method, and also observes the official newspaper of the regime in Pyongyang through content analysis in order to determine the DPRK’s perception and policy preference toward China. In North Korea’s for- eign policy, the essential ideologies and historical experiences have formed the preferences of the leadership in Pyongyang. The DPRK’s domestic pri- orities greatly influence its foreign policy toward China, more so than exter- nal pressures and direct diplomatic interactions. Key Words: North Korean foreign policy, domestic priority, security, identity, prosperity, China-DPRK relations ot only is the Korean peninsula one of the world’s most militarized areas, N but its future stability has been further clouded by North Korea’s nuclear gambit under young leader Kim Jung-Un and the ensuring political and eco- nomic uncertainties in the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK or North Korea). Through the recent purge of executed Jang Song Thaek, a heavy- weight in the economic relationship between China and North Korea, the Sino- DPRK relationship remains as murky as ever.
