South Korean Engagement Policies and North Korea: Identities, Norms and the Sunshine Policy (Politics in Asia) Book
A fresh historical and theoretical exploration of the much-debated, but still elusive, question of the Korean divide. In contrast to much of the literature on the divide, which deals with state-building on the two sides of the Demilitarized Zone, this book sheds light on the slow, but steady process of homogenization between the two estranged peoples, as accelerated after the end of the Cold War and especially after the inauguration of President Kim Dae-jung in 1998. Providing immense empirical detail as well as theoretical debate on the ideas in policy shaping in South Korea, the book presents a rich ‘history of enemies’ and covers issues including:an overview of the structural shift and the rise and fall of identity groups in South Koreahistory of 'enemy-making' and 'peace-building'North Korea's external relations with the US, Japan and EuropeHyundai's groundbreaking, cross-border tourism and other economic cooperation projectsthe lingering nuclear weapons crises.By focusing on the question of identities, the book presents a new approach on one of the most important legacies of the Cold War and threat to peace in the contemporary world: the divided Korean peninsula. As such it fills a major gap in the literature, utilizing new theoretical and empirical frameworks to deal with the Korean division and its future implications in East Asia. Read More
