Synopsis

In the past 40 years, arms control has become a central activity of international relations, playing a critical role in underpinning the balance of power. This book examines the security situation on the Korean Peninsula and the potential for using arms control to reduce tension and enhance confidence between the two Koreas. Lessons are drawn from the European experience before going on to examine the Korean situation and applying the European model to it. Also addressed are the points of German arms control policies as a divided state and Germany's position on the front line of the European Cold War, considering its relevance to the Korean situation. The third part of the book explores the regional development with respect to Korean arms control and the regional arms control mechanisms. This is for the management of the high level of regional forces and potential conflicts between the rival powers in Northeast Asia. The most promising avenues for the application of the European arms control measures to the Korean Peninsula are also examined.
