Reviews

Christine Bae and Harry Richardson make an appropriate and significant contribution to understanding the Korean peninsula by dealing with the broader issues there, including reunification and hot spatial policy issues raised in South Korea. . . the contents of the book as a whole are fascinating and insightful. I see it as very helpful to an understanding of spatial policy and planning in the Korean peninsula by both international and Korean readers, and by both academic scholars and general readers. - --Sam Ock Park, Journal of Regional Science
