520    "This radical new approach to dealing with North Korea 
       offers a refreshing perspective on an intransigent and 
       deadly situation. Imagine you control a multi-billion 
       dollar capital fund, and North Korea is an underperforming
       corporation. You see it is undervalued and want to take it
       over, but it is controlled by an old-fashioned board of 
       directors--the Kim family and a small number of ultra 
       elites--who will not negotiate a deal. In this regressive 
       situation it is logical to offer its shareholders--the 
       political and military elites, government managers and 
       bureaucrats, and the general population--a higher price 
       for their shares to convince them to overrule their board 
       of directors. Stop North Korea! A Radical New Approach to 
       the North Korea Standoff applies this basic scenario to a 
       situation that has become dire, and for which a strong 
       positive solution is crucial. This book shows how 
       investment rather than constraint--the carrot rather than 
       the stick--will not only deter the North Korea threat, but
       enhance the global community in ways perhaps unimagined in
       the past"--|cProvided by publisher. 
520    ""If war can be reduced to a competition over money--and 
       control over the land, people, and the resources that 
       produce it--then it should be possible to pay in advance 
       to prevent it." Author Shepherd Iverson uses this 
       underlying premise to provide an alternative to every book
       written about the North Korean nuclear threat and growing 
       East Asia militarism. Far less permeable to economic 
       sanctions than Iran has been, North Korea requires a 
       different sort of economic approach to peace. Taking a 
       cultural as well as a geoeconomic approach, Stop North 
       Korea: A Radical New Approach to Solving the North Korea 
       Standoff proposes that reunification is the best, possibly
       only, way to denuclearize North Korea, end its 
       government's oppressive regime and create a fruitful, 
       sustainable peace. The book further proposes that the way 
       to achieve reunification is, essentially, to buy it while 
       there is still a chance to prevent war and repair the 
       damage already done. It is business-as-peace-crafting in a
       way that has never been imagined before. It all begins 
       with this basic scenario: "Imagine that you control a 
       multi-billion dollar capital fund and North Korea is a 
       large underperforming corporation. You see it is 
       undervalued and want to take it over, but it is controlled
       by an old-fashioned board of directors--the Kim family and
       a small number of ultra-elites--lwho will not negotiate a 
       deal. In this regressive situation it is logical to offer 
       shareholders--the larger number of political and military 
       elites, government managers and bureaucrats, and the 
       general population--a higher price for their shares to 
       convince them to overrule their board of directors.""--
