​
Description:
A major new history of North and South Korea, from the late nineteenth century to the present.
Victor Cha of Georgetown University and Ramon Pacheco Pardo of King’s College London team up to explore the history of modern Korea, from the late nineteenth century, Japanese occupation, and Cold War division to democratization, nuclear weapons, and BTS. A country situated amongst the world’s largest powers—including China, Japan, Russia, and the United States—Korea’s fate has been affected by its geography and the strength of its leadership and society. Cha and Pacheco Pardo shed light on the evolving identities of the two Koreas, explaining the sharp differences between North and South, and prospects for unification.
