The United States and North Korea remain in a technical state of war since the signing of the Korean War armistice in 1953. With diplomacy between both countries stalled for years, tensions remain high as the North Korean government continues to engage in a wide variety of illicit activities ranging from cybercrime to ballistic missile development. This seminar will promote a deeper understanding of North Korea through an examination of the history of American engagement with the country as well as a review of future prospects for principled contact between both countries in a variety of contexts.
