Perspectives on U.S. policy toward North Korea

"Perspectives on U.S. Policy toward North Korea opens discussion of the various approaches the United States has adopted and is considering. Providing expert views on the impasse between the United States and North Korea, the volume addresses topics that include the negotiating strategies of the Clinton and Bush administrations, the concept of building bilateral relationships through contact of U.S. and South Korean military officers, and the benefits of allowing China to take the lead in conflict resolution. Offering both traditional and unusual approaches - including diplomatic, academic, and military viewpoints - Perspectives on U.S. Policy toward North Korea is an essential guide to a better understanding of this complicated problem and an important work for policy makers, analysts, and anyone interested in conflict resolution and security studies."--Jacket.
