Abstract

This study addresses the international security perspectives of the Republic of Korea (South Korea). Particular emphasis is placed on the way in which American, Soviet, Chinese and Japanese interests intersect on the Korean Peninsula and on their impact upon the military balance between North and South Korea. A major portion of this analysis is devoted as well to an examination of inter-Korean relations, spotlighting the varying security implications of the continued partition, as opposed to the eventual reunification of the two Koreas. The importance to South Korea of the Seoul-Washington-Tokyo relationship is discussed, as well as the effect of the Sino-Soviet dispute on South Korean defense and foreign policies. In order to clarify further the strategic perspectives of key decision makers in Seoul, the study reviewed and assessed South Korean views on such controversial issues as the expansion of Japan's self-defense forces, the withdrawal of the U.S. ground troops from the Korean peninsula, Sino-Soviet moves toward rapprochement, and the proliferation of nuclear weapons in Northeast Asia.

Technical Report Pfaltzgraff, R; Davis, J; Dougherty, J; ...

This study assesses Chinese defense and foreign policy perspectives, especially as they influence, and are influenced by, China's strategic approach to international issues. Special emphasis is placed on China's recent perspectives on the Soviet Union, Japan, and the United States, together with other major countries, as well as the Third World. China's views on international and regional security issues are assessed with reference both to Marxist and more-traditional Chinese influences, including the perspective of Mao's Three Worlds and the revisions that have been made in this view - which might now be called a unified front strategy at the globalmore »« less

There has also been a substantial shift in West European thinking and attitudes about security and strategy. Together, these trendsmore »« less

Korean peninsula: A northeast Asian security concern. Individual study project

Technical Report Blackburn, N

North and South Korea have not responded to the New World Order-that Communism is dead and the Cold War Era is over. When the Berlin Wall collapsed and Germany became one nation, Korea emerged as the only divided country remaining in the world. Today, the Korean Peninsula remains divided by ideology, mutual mistrust of national leadership, the 155-mile DMZ, US military presence, conflicting approaches to national reunification, and the North Korean nuclear issue. Thus, the traditional Cold War animosities and political, economic, military paradigms remain entrenched in a divided Korean peninsula. The US Intelligence Community has identified an extensive nuclearmore »« less
