Policy Forum 08-020: Inter-Korean Relations in the Absence of a U.S.-ROK Alliance
David C. Kang, Professor in the Government department and Adjunct Professor at the Tuck School of Business, Dartmouth College, writes, “Evidence suggests that even without the U.S.-ROK military alliance instability and change on the Korean peninsula would be less dramatic than some observers have predicted. The absence of an alliance might under certain circumstances, such as continued progress in the six-party talks, have relatively little impact. Under other circumstances, such as increased tension between the United States and China over regional issues, the absence of the alliance might be more consequential.”

Policy Forum 08-019: The North Korean Ballistic Missile Program
Daniel A. Pinkston, Senior Analyst for the International Crisis Group, writes, “North Korea has a significant infrastructure and institutional arrangement to sustain its missile program. The country is nearly self-sufficient in ballistic missile production, but still relies upon some advanced foreign technologies and components, particularly for guidance systems. Pyongyang has established foreign entities and front companies to acquire inputs, but international export controls and denial strategies have made it increasingly difficult to procure dual-use items and technologies.”
