摘要 The U.S.-DPRK Agreed Framework and especially the establishment of the Korean Peninsula Energy Development Organization(KEDO) have laid the foundations for cooperative security and the emergence of a peace regime in the region. If progress is made in the ”Four-Party Talks”-involving the two Koreas, the United States, and the People`s Republic of China(PRC)-this agenda will be advanced further. Although there are many problems to overcome and recent missile tests by North Korea have increased anxieties in Washington and in Tokyo as well as in Seoul, continued engagement by all interested parties with North Korea through these initiatives continues to offer the best hope for peace and security in Northeast Asia. Some observers have suggested that KEDO may even prove a model for resolving other similarly complex international problems. Nevertheless, the regional security map still lacks some essential components. these include: the extension of North-South dialogue; the need for innovative responses to economic difficulties and political uncertainty in the North; and the recognition of regime longevity as a key element in the process. The paper asserts that a more comprehensive program of economic cooperation as well as continued support for multilateral initiatives by the United States and other Asia-Pacific states are essential if the Korean issue is to be resoloved.
