| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Despite the unceasing efforts of the international community to halt North Korea’s
nuclear ambitions, North Korea’s nuclear development and missile technology
have aggressively progressed over time. Why did the efforts fail and what would
be the new direction to fix the problem, if necessary? To answer these central
questions, this paper attempts to analyze the problems of sanctions on North Korea
and assess North Korea’s nuclear development and capability. This paper suggests
that a recalibration of policy measures, including a dual–track strategy that, on the
one hand leads to internal change in the North, while on the other, results in strong
external pressure, continues to be significant for the ultimate resolution of North
Korea’s nuclear quandaries. If left alone, the nuclear situation in North Korea may
likely shift from the previously limited problem of denuclearization on the Korean
peninsula to the broader global concern of nonproliferation. |
