内容説明

Political scientist Chae-Jin Lee reviews the vicissitudes of U.S. policy toward Korea-North and South-since the end of World War II, but especially since 1948 when rival regimes were installed in both North and South. Various American presidential administrations have sought to bring about stability and change in Korea, with varying degrees of success and failure. However, the U.S. could never effect better relations between North and South, despite overtures by Presidents George H. W. Bush and Bill Clinton. In U.S. Policy toward Korea, Chae-Jin Lee seeks to explain the continuously changing nature of U.S.-Korean relations by discussing the goals the U.S. has historically sought for Korea, they way in which these goals were articulated, both publicly and privately, and the methods and tools used to implement these goals. Lee makes it his task to not only write from the U.S. perspective, but to also cntruct the Korean points of view to the extent possible. The result is a book that reveals frustrations of all players-U.S. and the two Koreas-in attempting to arrive at some modicum of coexistence.

内容説明

In A Troubled Peace, Professor Chae-Jin Lee reviews the vicissitudes of U.S. policy toward South and North Korea since 1948 when rival regimes were installed on the Korean peninsula. He explains the continuously changing nature of U.S.-Korea relations by discussing the goals the United States has sought for Korea, the ways in which these goals have been articulated, and the methods used to implement them. Using a careful analysis of declassified diplomatic documents, primary materials in English, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese, and extensive interviews with American and Korean officials, Lee draws attention to a number of factors that have affected U.S. policy: the functions of U.S. security policy in Korea, the role of the United States in South Korea's political democratization, President Clinton's policy of constructive engagement toward North Korea, President Bush's hegemonic policy toward North Korea, and the hexagonal linkages among the United States, China, Japan, Russia, and the two Koreas. Drawing on concepts of containment, deterrence, engagement, preemption, and appeasement, Lee's balanced and thoughtful approach reveals the frustrations of all players in their attempts to arrive at a modicum of coexistence. His objective, comprehensive, and definitive study reveals a dynamic-and incredibly complex-series of relationships underpinning a troubled and tenuous peace.
