This book presents a comprehensive overview of political and economic developments as well as security issues in the Korean Peninsula during 2008–2020 from a Russian perspective.

The book’s first section, Diverging Development Paths, analyzes the evolution of North and South Korea in the early twenty-first century. The next section, The Nuclear Challenge, assesses Seoul’s and Pyongyang’s foreign policy options within ever-changing domestic and international circumstances – under the looming nuclear shadow.
