Description:North Korea is poised at the crossroads of history. Which direction will its leader take?Throughout the world, oppressive regimes are being uprooted and replaced by budding democracies, but one exception The People's Republic of North Korea. The Kim family has clung to power for three generations by silencing dissidents, ruling with an iron fist, and holding its neighbors hostage with threats of war.

He also discusses the possible outcomes of its aggressive standoff with the world superpowers.Kim Jong Un is not a crazed "Rocket Man" or a bumbling despot; he has been groomed since birth to take control of his country and stay in power at all costs. He is now at a fateful crossroads. Will he make good on decades of threats, liberalize North Korea and gain international legitimacy, or watch his regime crumble around him? Lee analyzes the likelihood and consequences of each of these possibilities, cautioning that in the end, a humanitarian crisis in the region is all but unavoidable.
