Product Description
Synopsis
This analysis of modern Korea includes: the imprisonment and sentencing of two former presidents of South Korea for their role in the Kwangju uprising and on various charges of corruption; the death of Kim II Sung and the resultant North-South standoff; and recent labour and student protests.

From the Author
A hard-hitting look at South Korea's economy
A close-up analysis of the incestuous relationship between businessmen and politicians that led both to the Korean "miracle" and to its dramatic collapse in 1997. Written during and after a 5 year stint as a foreign correspondent in Seoul (1987-92).

"Proven spectacularly right." Economist, 2/28/98

"Prescient" New York Times, Week in Review, 1/4/98

"A superb book, which weaves together history, economics and politics" Foreign Affairs March/April 1995

"Superb....fills in some of the blank pages in the story of South Korea's so-called economic miracle." Wall Street Journal, 10/7/94
