The Understanding North Korea roundtable series is a joint program of the National Committee on North Korea and the Wilson Center’s Hyundai Motor - Korean Foundation Center for Korean History and Public Policy. The roundtable series was established to enable emerging scholars of North Korea to share their research ideas with peers and experts in the field, and to publish their findings in a format accessible to a general audience.
Special thanks to Daniel Pinkston, Sheena Chestnut Greitens, Robert Carlin, Bradley Babson, Ken Gause, and Immanuel Kim who served as discussants for the paper series roundtables.
