This will no doubt be a controversial study in some circles. for it provides an alternative approach to some contemporary scholarship. but it will contribute both to the rise of sophisticated scholarly concern and popular interest in understanding the various roles of Korean presidents during critical periods in modern Korean history.</p><p>This volume is a highly relevant and singular contribution to the literature on the peregrinations of the Republic since its founding."<br /> --<strong>David I. Steinberg</strong>, Director, Asian Studies Program, School of Foreign Service, Georgetown University</p><br>
