The author Bruce Cumings believes it is particularly important and urgent for Americans to learn about, or deepen their knowledge of, the two Koreas.  He writes in his introduction that the United States has an enormous responsibility for the state of the Korean peninsula today, a military role that could make it a belligerent in any new war overnight, and rapidly increasing trade with the Republic of Korea (ROK) in the south.  If Americans fail to comprehend their past and present role in Korea, they do so at their peril, for Korea in the postwar period has had a knack for forcibly bringing itself to our attention.  It is Korea's position in the international system that makes reconsideration and timely.  In this volume Mr. Cumings explains the history that is behind these separate regimes, North and South Korea's political systems and economies.

Kristof, Nicholas D.

Sometime early in the new century India will become the world's most populous nation. Like China, India is a nuclear power and hopes to be a major economic player in Asia. Half a century ago, India chose democracy and China communism, and they took very different paths to development. India has now fallen behind China by nearly every measure of social progress and its political system is also under strain. Ambassador Dennis Kux, longtime South Asia specialist, says: [her] comprehensive survey of India makes clear that this nation now numbering more than one billion people will become an increasingly significant actor on the global stage in the twenty-first century, in his foreword to Ms. Crossette's engaging firsthand account of India in today's world.
