About The Book
"Politics in North and South Korea" provides a comprehensive and balanced understanding of the political dynamics of the two Koreas. The book covers both North and South Korea in equal depth, exploring their historical, political, and economic development, as well as their international relations. It highlights how South Korea transitioned to democracy and how the Juche ideology has shaped the totalitarian system in North Korea.
Written in an accessible, jargon-free manner, this textbook uses both historical-institutional approaches and quantitative evidence to analyze a wide range of political issues including:
-
The legacies of early-20th century Japanese colonial rule
-
South Korea's democratization and its consolidation of democracy
-
South Korea's diplomatic efforts and North Korea’s nuclear crises
-
Economic development in both North and South Korea
-
North Korea’s three-generation power succession
-
Human rights issues in North Korea
-
Inter-Korean relations and the possibilities of reunification
This book is essential reading for students of Korean politics and will be particularly useful for undergraduate and postgraduate courses on East Asian Politics, Asian Studies, and International Relations.
