Korea Peace Day -- Panel Discussion at Stanford
 
Bruce Cumings, University of Chicago
John Lewis, Stanford University
Jae Jung Suh, Cornell University
 
Moderated by Daniel Sneider

Did North Korea really test the bomb? Wasn't the North Korean state supposed to collapse like the communist regimes in Warsaw, Bucharest, and East Berlin? How is it that the North Korean state survived the collapse of its Soviet trading partner, several years of extreme famine in the mid-1990s, and then the containment-plus tactics of the Bush administration? Now, are there really only "bad" and "worse" solutions to the "North Korea problem"?

To discuss these and related questions concerning Korea, East Asia, and U.S.-Korea relations, you are invited to a two hour town-hall type of meeting, hosted by the Shorenstein Asia Pacific Research Center (SAPARC) in collaboration with Alliance of Scholars Concerned about Korea (ASCK). 

This important and timely conversation will begin with introductory remarks from three distinguished panelists: Bruce Cumings, John Lewis, and Jae Jung Suh.  The program will be moderated by Dan Sneider, a long time journalist and columnist on Asian affairs.
