Omschrijving
North Korea is an anomaly in the international system. Deliberately isolated, it survives through the sale of weapons to enemies of the United States. In this book, Pacheco Pardo offers insight into the country today and seeks to answer what level of threat it poses to global security.
Ramon Pacheco Pardo, one of Europe’s leading and most prolific of Korea experts has written an indispensable guide for understanding the Kim dynasty’s iron control over North Korea and how the country’s new strategic (especially its nuclear) capabilities and geopolitical ambitions pose a critical threat to international order in the twenty-first century.
Ramon Pacheco Pardo goes beyond the cliché of North Korea as an 'isolated' country to explore its tempestuous relations with friends and enemies alike. A fantastic primer for anyone interested in understanding how the country’s complex history and political system inform its foreign policy.
Ramon Pacheco Pardo is Professor of International Relations at King’s College London and the KF-VUB Korea Chair at the Brussels School of Governance. His books include Korea: A New History of South and North (with Victor D. Cha) and Shrimp to Whale: South Korea from the Forgotten War to K-Pop.
