Summary: the usual suspects...NOT!
Comment: This must have been an interesting conference: a multinational cast of the usual suspects (Scott Snyder, Kyongman Jeon, Aidan Foster-Carter et al.) joined by some functional area specialists (Jeffrey Pilkington, Danny Leipziger et al.) for added spice.

Among the highpoints: Heather Smith's dissection of the food situation, David Steinberg's thoughtful reflections on South Korean politics, and Holger Wolf's demolition of the myths of German unification. Anthony Michell provides a heterox view of the North Korean economy. It may not be a convincing view, but it is a welcome antidote to usual recitation of Bank of Korea figures.

Summary: This is an interesting book on an important topic
Comment: Today in South Korea we have "sunshine policy" toward North Korea. But we need to know what will happen. This book has many experts from South Korea and other countries. I think that the best essay is by Professor Hearther Smith. She analyses the food situation in North Korea, using many datas. There is also an essay by Dr. Danny Leipziger from the World Bank. He describes how international institutions can help North Korea based on the experience of Vietnam. The only bad thing about this book is one of the authors refers almost only to her own researches (and one author criticizes the editor). But this is an excellent book on an important topic.
