Sangsoo Lee and Ingolf Kiesow No Confidence in Korea: A Regional Problem in a Global Context MONOGRAPH, May 2010, pp. 137.  Abstract: The New START (Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty), which was recently signed, increases the strategic importance of nuclear weapons held by rising powers like China and mi-nor powers like North Korea. The legitimacy of the inter-national Non-Proliferation Treaty is undermined by the nuclear tests performed by new nuclear states like North Korea, India and Pakistan. North Korea’s nuclear ambi-tions are basically due to the fear of further isolation, the lack of international support and the increasing economic and military power of South Korea. Both North and South Korea have declared reunification as a sacred goal, but their increasing cultural, economic and societal differ-ences make this goal less and less realistic. A new tendency in South Korea and elsewhere in the West to talk about the need for a regime change in North Korea reduces the prospects that meaningful negotiations will be initiated regarding some sort of Korean reunification or even peaceful coexistence. Instead, tensions are growing on the Korean peninsula. Electronic Paper Link
