This book is a compilation of the papers and comments from the 'Seminar on Development of Relations between Korea and Socialist Countries and Prospects for South-North Korean Relations' organized by the Korea Institute for International Economic Policy.
Socialist countries have recently undergone a sudden change in political, economic and social reform due to the spread of Gorbachev's perestroika policy. This is expected to affect Korea's diplomatic policy toward socialist countries including the Soviet Union, China, East European countries and North Korea. This seminar provided perspectives for development of relations between Korea and Socialist countries and suggested perspectives of economic and social integration after German unification.
