The Changing Demographics of the U.S. Southern Security Perimeter: A First Look at the Numbers
This paper attempts to use available demographic data to cast light on trends indicative of, or potentially supportive of, an accretion of security threats from what has been termed “the U.S. southern security perimeter”: the USA's interface with Latin America and the Caribbean. Available data on fertility, urbanization, religious affiliation and migration suggest that many local demographic trends defy prevailing North American stereotypes for t…

Four Surprises in Global Demography
Power and Population in Asia
Few would contest the general proposition that the population factor bears directly on the course of the friendly - and sometimes unfriendly - competition between states in the world arena today. Problems arise, however, when we try to move from the general to the specific. How, exactly, do human numbers (population size, composition, and trends of change) affect the ability of governments to influence events beyond their borders - or affect the …

Can the Two Koreas Be One
TO SAY THE COLD WAR is over is to ignore a potentially dangerous reality: the final chapter is still being played out on the divided, heavily armed Korean peninsula. Korea, one of the true flashpoints of the post-Cold War world, is approaching a momentous juncture? one comparable to the partition of 1945 or the terrible war of 1950-53. For Korea is now heading toward reunification. The question is no longer whether the peninsula will be reunited,…

Financial Transfers from Japan to North Korea: Estimating the Unreported Flows
With the collapse of the Soviet Union and the cutback in Chinese aid to North Korea (DPRK),1 Pyongyang for the moment seems to be left with only one potentially major source of concessional resource transfers: the General Association of Korean Residents in Japan (known by the abbreviated Chosen Soren in Japanese, Chochongnyon in Korean). This organization of pro-DPRK Koreans living in Japan-estimates of whose membership range from about 100,000 t…
