- Title
The Challenges of Reunification: Why South Korea Cannot Follow Germany's Strategy.
- Authors
Niederhafner, Stefan
- Abstract
The article highlights several social and economic aspects of the German reunification and draws inferences related to the case of Korea. It shows that the German strategy is not feasible for North and South Korea and argues that South Korea has to develop strategies to maintain North Korea's stability and pursue social and economic harmonization first before political reunification. It indicates that Korean reunification can only be achieved through a long-term cooperation process.
