The book North Korea and the Politics of Nuclear Deterrence: Implications to Regional Security examines the geopolitical significance of North Korea's nuclear weapons development and its impact on the Korean Peninsula and East Asia. It illuminates the interplay between North Korea's nuclear aspirations and the international community's efforts, through sanctions and diplomacy, to curb its nuclear programme. The book posits that North Korea's nuclearization is a logical response to perceived security threats, particularly from the U.S., viewed through the lens of defensive realism. It also explores the potential effects of nuclear proliferation in this volatile region and its broader implications for global security, proposing strategies for peace and stability. The book emphasises the need for a special UN Security Council structure to investigate the security factors that led to North Korea's nuclearization, with the goal of achieving a moratorium on its nuclear program to prevent a domino effect of proliferation in the Korean Peninsula.
