[연구진 동정] 문정인 특임연구원 라운드테이블 - North Korea's nuclear weapons: What now?

This week we begin the third and final round of the Development and Disarmament Roundtable on North Korea as tensions and rhetoric continue to escalate on the Korean Peninsula. Since the beginning of June, three distinguished experts have weighed in on the challenges that dog the international community regarding a nuclear North Korea. Each author is committed to engagement and pragmatism, and each is noted for expertise in the region: Shen Dingli is the VP of the Shanghai Association of International Studies and the Chinese Association for South Asian Studies, as well as the associate dean of Fudan University's Institute of International Studies; Chung-in Moon is the editor-in-chief at Global Asia and teaches at Yonsei University; and Andrei Lankov, who teaches at Kookmin University, has published the books The Real North Korea: Life and Politics in the Failed Stalinist Utopia and From Stalin to Kim Il Sung: The Formation of North Korea, 1945–1960. Read on for more insights into a nuclear proliferation issue that will surely loom large in the US presidential election this fall.
