Book Synopsis The Social Construction of the Korean War by : Jennifer Milliken
Book excerpt: In light of the recent declassification of state papers from Western, Soviet, and Chinese archives, this intriguing book presents a re-examination of the Korean War. The authors present a revealing analysis of North Korea's decision to invade South Korea in June of 1950, Soviet and American foreign policy during the war, and Chinese intervention. The book also shows how the standard explanations of the war in international relations theory, inherited from foundational approaches, are misleading or incomplete.
