KEI'S ACADEMIC PAPER SERIES ON KOREA...

In December, 2006, KEI initiated its new Academic Paper Series. KEI intends to commission 9 to 10 papers per year with diverse perspectives on original subjects of current interest to Korea watchers. KEI will edit and distribute each paper as a KEI Academic Paper to over 2,000 government officials, think tank experts, and scholars around the United States and the world. Distribution of each paper will be followed by a public discussion with the author at KEI. An annual collection of KEI Academic Papers will then be collated and published in a single volume, On Korea.
