North Korea as a State Sponsor of Terrorism: Views from Tokyo and Pyongyang

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This paper examines the interconnections between American, Japanese, and North
Korean policies and perspectives, mainly as they have pertained to North Korea’s
inclusion on the US State Department’s list of states that support terrorism. In this
context, this paper pays especially close attention to the very troubled Japan North
Korean relationship. It shows that the recent movement by the Bush administration
away from the hard line policy that it maintained for several years, which had been
tainted by Cold War politics, has proven effective in improving relations between
Washington and Pyongyang. However, relations between Japan and North Korea
have remained severely strained by historical problems and animosities, which
stem from the Cold War and earlier. This paper concludes by providing practical
approaches to bring Japan and North Korea to rapprochement.
