Routledge - Peace Regime Building on the Korean Peninsula

Explore the complex dynamics of Northeast Asian security with this Routledge publication. Despite the Korean War halting over half a century ago, a formal peace treaty has not been established, meaning the two Korean states remain technically at war. This volume examines the precarious situation on the peninsula, particularly following the escalation of tensions and distrust after North Korea's 2009 underground nuclear weapons test. This academic work provides a conceptual framework for understanding security through a two-track approach. It analyzes both inter-Korean relations and broader international cooperation to address the ongoing instability. It is an essential resource for those studying international relations, government, and the political landscape of Northeast Asia.
