Since the late 1980s, I have benefited immensely from interacting with leading members of the academic and policymaking communities in Asia, the United States, and Europe, since they have deepened and clarified my thinking on key regional and global security issues. I would like to express my appreciation to my colleagues at the Graduate School of International Studies, Yonsei University, the International Institute for Strategic Studies, and the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. I am grateful to Douglas Paal, vice president for studies at Carnegie, who enabled me to become a nonresident senior associate and for kindly agreeing to publish this book. I am indebted to four external reviewers for their insightful comments and suggestions, but all the interpretations and errors in the following pages are solely my own.
