This Task Force will examine various scenarios for reunification of the Korean Peninsula and their implications for regional security. Problems such as mass population exodus from North Korea, the viability of the South Korean economy under tremendous new pressures, and security concerns relating to China and Japan will be discussed in relation to their impact on American policy. The Task Force will prepare a draft document of analysis and recommendations that will be compared to a similar draft by a South Korean Task Force at a conference in 1998. Representatives from the two Task Forces will then hold a second conference to explore the same issues with scholars and policymakers from other northeast Asian countries.
