SUMMARY:Tailored Engagement: Towards an Effective and sustainable Inter-Korean Relations Policy
DESCRIPTION:The Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies will host Gi-Wook Shin and David Straub\, who will present their study of “Tailored Engagement: Toward an Effective and Sustainable Inter-Korean Relations Policy.” \n\nWith the strategic situation on and around the Korean Peninsula continuing to worsen\, Shorenstein APARC Director Gi-Wook Shin and his colleagues recently issued a major policy study arguing that South Korea is the only power in the region that might be both willing and able to change the current dangerous trajectory. In “Tailored Engagement: Toward an Effective and Sustainable Inter-Korean Relations Policy\,” they explain how a more proactive South Korean approach to engaging North Korea could achieve important initial goals and eventually contribute to resolving fundamental issues on the peninsula. In this first presentation of their study at Stanford University\, the co-authors will review the background to the research\, lay out the study’s key recommendations\, and discuss the reception it has received in Seoul\, where it was first presented at a formal hearing of the South Korean National Assembly. \nGi-Wook Shin is a senior fellow at FSI and professor of sociology at Stanford University. David Straub is associate director of the Korea Program at APARC and a former director of the office of Korean affairs in the US Department of State. Dan Sneider is associate director of research at APARC. \n

SUMMARY:Screen of Documentary Film "Divided families"
DESCRIPTION:The Korea Institute of Harvard University will host a screening of “Divided Families\,” a documentary about families separated due to the Korean War. Following the screen will be a discussion with Jason Ahn\, the director and executive producer and Jieun Baek\, the producer of the film. \n\nAbout the Film:  When the border was drawn between North and South Korea\, hundreds of thousands of family members were left divided. During the Korean War (1950-1953) even more families were dislocated in the chaos of war. Over 60 years have passed since then and many Koreans immigrated to the United States in search of peace and hope. There are an estimated 100\,000 first generation Korean Americans with immediate family members in the North Korea.   Many of the family members have already passed away\, or are in their 70s-90s. Some have tried to contact their families through informal brokers\, but this uncertain avenue has led many divided family members to become disillusioned. Though US Citizens\, there are no formal mechanisms for family members in the United States to identify or even dream of reuniting with their families in North Korea. We hope that the film will raise awareness in the global community of this issue by documenting the stories of first generation Korean divided family members currently residing in the United States.

SUMMARY:A Changing North Korea
DESCRIPTION:Institute of East Asian Studies at the University of California\, Berkeley will host Andray Abrahamian\, the Executive Director of the Choson Exchange for a discussion on developments in North Korea's economic and social relations. \n\nEach one of us has some conception of North Korea. It has forced its way into our imaginations\, yet so many developments in North Korea's economic and social relations are either ignored or misinterpreted. While the authorities search for non-threatening policy experiments\, young North Koreans seek opportunities in the business world. Choson Exchange focuses on supporting pragmatic\, talented North Koreans through training in business\, economic policy and law. \n Andray Abrahamian became interested in Korea issues following a trip to the DMZ in 2003. This inspired an MA in International Relations from the University of Sussex. He then earned a PhD focusing on Western media and images of North Korea\, while teaching International Relations at the University of Ulsan. He is the Executive Director of Choson Exchange and a CSIS Kelly Fellow. Andray speaks Korean and has visited the DPRK 20 times.

SUMMARY:Combating Illegal Nuclear Trade
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Nonproliferation Studies will feature Leonard Spector and Egle Murauskaite\, who will present their report titled “Countering Nuclear Commodity Smuggling: A System of Systems.” The report calls on the United States and other concerned countries to adopt tighter controls to stem the flow of nuclear-related goods to Iran\, North Korea\, and other states of proliferation concern. Even modest improvements across the spectrum of today’s nuclear technology controls could greatly strengthen overall international efforts to constrain illicit nuclear procurement networks\, the study found. \n\nThe study calls for: \n\nPeer reviews of national export controls within the 48-member Nuclear Suppliers Group and within the European Union\nHigher penalties and heightened publicity when export control violators are brought to justice\nGreatly expanded post-export inspections to confirm compliance with license conditions\n\nThe researchers identify and analyze eight specific systems of technology control measures\, each distinct and complex in its own right: \n\nMeasures against originating parties\nExport licensing and control lists\nCustoms controls and inspections\nPrivate sector internal compliance programs\nFinancial measures\nEnforcement measures\nInternational outreach and capacity building\nTransportation and interdictions\n\nHighlighted in the study is that each system has international\, multi-state\, and national components\, which\, in toto\, create a system of systems working to halt illicit nuclear commodity transfers. \nA key development highlighted in the study is the growing role of private entity compliance programs in banking\, manufacturing\, and other sectors\, where the wholesale screening of transactions against lists of suspect end-users has placed multiple obstacles in the path of nuclear commodity smuggling networks\, forcing them to adopt increasingly complex and costly evasive measures. \nIn several instances\, the study urges the export control community to adopt the more robust measures used in the financial sphere to combat the financing of proliferation transactions\, including peer reviews\, with publication of findings and identification of countries that are underperforming or uncooperative. In addition\, the report highlights the overarching roles of diplomacy and intelligence sharing among foreign governments\, and notes that better mechanisms are needed for using intelligence information to defend sanctions designations when challenged in court.

SUMMARY:Countering Sanctions: The Unequal Geographic Impact of Economic Sanctions in North Korea
DESCRIPTION:Recently\, economic sanctions have not been effective in changing the behavior of a sanctioned country. Yong Suk Lee will speak at Stanford to examine how an autocratic regime domestically counters the impact of economic sanctions\, specifically\, how the easing and tightening of sanctions impact the urban areas relative to the hinterlands in North Korea. Using the satellite luminosity data\, he argues sanctions that fail to change the autocrat's behavior increase inequality at a cost to the already marginalized hinterlands. Economist Yong Suk Lee has been appointed the SK Center Fellow at Stanford's Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies (FSI)\, effective Sept. 1\, 2014. Lee will join the Korea Program at the Walter H. Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center (APARC).

SUMMARY:Japan-North Korea Rapprochement: Dare to Dream or Doomed to Fail?
DESCRIPTION:North Korea agreed in May to reopen an investigation into the abductions of Japanese nationals in the 1970s and ‘80s in exchange for sanctions relief from Tokyo. Some thought this step could lead to a breakthrough in Japan-North Korea ties\, but there has been little progress. Is this another North Korean deal gone bad\, or is there still potential in this process? \nFollowing a trip to North Korea\, Junya Nishino will discuss recent developments in Japan-North Korea relations and near-term prospects\, looking at motivations in both capitals for improving ties\, as well as the impact of these events on Japan's relations with Washington and Seoul. Scott Snyder will provide commentary and James L. Schoff will moderate. \nJunya Nishino\nJunya Nishino is an associate professor at Keio University and a specialist on Korea and Japan-Korea relations. Previously\, he was a visiting scholar at the Harvard-Yenching Institute and the Woodrow Wilson Center in addition to serving as a consultant for Japan's Foreign Ministry. \nScott Snyder\nScott Snyder is senior fellow for Korea studies and director of the program on U.S.-Korea policy at the Council on Foreign Relations. His research focuses on South Korea's efforts to contribute on the international stage\, its potential influence and contributions in East Asia\, and implications of North Korean instability. \nJames L. Schoff\nJames L. Schoff is a senior associate in Carnegie's Asia Program. His research focuses on U.S.-Japan relations and regional engagement\, Japanese politics and security\, and the private sector's role in Japanese policymaking.

SUMMARY:The North Korea Human Rights Act: A Decade Later
DESCRIPTION:While much of the attention on North Korea relates to its nuclear weapons program\, the regime has a long record of human rights violations. In the fall of 2004\, the United States Congress took up this issue with the intent of finding ways to improve the human rights situation in North Korea. The culmination of those efforts were the North Korea Human Rights Act\, which was signed into law on October 18\, 2004 by President George W. Bush. As the recent UN Commission of Inquiry report indicates\, the issue of human rights in North Korea remains one of grave importance.

SUMMARY:Change in North Korea: Pyongyang Facade
DESCRIPTION:Mike Cowin\, the deputy head of mission at the British Embassy in Pyongyang\, will speak at Stanford's Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies. \nSince Kim Jong Un came to power\, interest in North Korea (DPRK) has increased but it is difficult to judge whether the growing range of media reports and the commentaries based on them are accurate or not. Spending almost 30 months in the DPRK from March 2012\, mainly in Pyongyang but also making visits outside\, offered an opportunity to collect up-to-date materials\, especially photographs\, which may offer an insight into the changes taking place. These might offer a new angle to be considered and hopefully stimulate further discussion about what is really happening in the DPRK now.

SUMMARY:Tailored Engagement: Making Inter-Korean Relations Effective and Sustainable
DESCRIPTION:The Center for East Asia Policy Studies at Brookings will host a discussion by Gi-Wook Shin and David Straub of Stanford University’s Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center (APARC) as they unveil their study on a new South Korean approach to engage North Korea. The authors will articulate a path for implementing “tailored engagement\,” which requires increasing South Korea’s domestic consensus on North Korea and reorganizing South Korea’s official apparatus for dealing with Pyongyang. They also lay out basic principles that must be followed to ensure the policy’s sustainability in South Korea and with North Korea. John Merrill\, former chief of the Northeast Asia Division of Bureau of Intelligence and Research at the U.S. Department of State\, will comment on the presentations\, and Katharine Moon\, senior fellow and SK-Korea Foundation chair in Korea studies at Brookings\, will moderate the discussion.
