Zagrozenia bezpieczenstwa na Połwyspie Koreanskim za rzadow Kim Dzong Una

Po objęciu władzy przez Kim Dzong Una w 2011 r. wielu ekspertów zastanawiało się, czy uda mu się ugruntować władzę, czy ktoś z aparatu państwowego (partii lub armii) będzie sprawował realną władzę w KRL-D 1. Ostatnie lata wskazują, iż następca Kim Dzong-Ila (1994-2011) wzmacnia swoją władzę eliminując potencjalnych przeciwników politycznych i kontynuuje dzieła ojca rozwijając program atomowy i rakietowy. Działania te mają poważny wpływ na destabilizację sytuacji w regionie. W ramach problemu bezpieczeństwa na Półwyspie Koreańskim można wskazać trzy zagadnienia. Po pierwsze, program nuklearny oraz rakietowy Korei Północnej, uważany za jedno z największych zagrożeń dla bezpieczeństwa w regionie, paradoksalnie z punktu widzenia Korei Północnej jest traktowany jako naj ważniejszy gwarant jej bezpieczeństwa. Po drugie, zagrożenia wojną między państwami koreańskimi i ewentualne reperkusje konfliktu. Formalnie od wybuchu wojny koreańskiej (1950-1953) państwa te pozostają w stanie wojny, gdyż podpisały jedynie porozumienie

TRENDS IN THE POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC COOPERATION OF THE KOREAS SINCE THE LAST INTERKOREAN SUMMIT

Th e evolution of inter-Korean relations can be divided into periods that mirror the nature and specifi c character of cooperation and rivalry of the two Koreas. Inter-korean dialogue cover the issues of a unifi cation dialogue and an economic and cultural cooperation; it is worth noting that all the mentioned areas of cooperation overlap. Ever since the Sunshine Policy initiated by President Kim Dae-jung, it has become apparent that one of the main obstacles to the unifi cation of the Koreas is the economic gap; therefore, increased economic cooperation was to be sought. Despite the failure of some economic projects, owing to the economic initiatives and increased cooperation, the Korean states have strengthened mutual trust. Th e Republic of Korea has become the second largest DPRK's trading partner aft er China.

The aim of this article is to place the leadership types of North Korean dictators within the framework of political leadership theoretical concepts and then compare them with each other. This article's main research problem is an attempt to answer the question: Are we dealing with a single model of political leadership in the DPRK, or maybe individual dictators, despite some similarities in the way they rule, are different from each other? After analyzing the way of coming to power, the characterological features, the circumstances and manner of governing, and changes made to the political system via changes to the Constitution, it was possible to point out differences and similarities in the leadership models of Kim Il-sung, Kim Jong-il and Kim Jong-un. In this article, the author uses the comparative, legal-dogmatic and historical analysis methods.

HUMAN RIGHTS IN ASIA: THE CASE OF CHINA, JAPAN AND NORTH AND SOUTH KOREA

The Author looks at them from the European perspective and try to analyse the same issue in different political systems in order to present it through the universal prism of Asian values. From an ethical perspective, some groups of Asian politicians and scientists perceive Asian values as the equivalent of human rights. The Bangkok Declaration of 1993 was a major step because it was the first to include Asian values in an international status document, and it emphasised their existence and historical and cultural difference to human rights. Human rights as a product of Western civilisation do not include the achievements and philosophical thoughts of the Asia region. The Author believes that human rights are universal, not because they concern all people and are universally respected and recognised-as claimed by most Western experts-but because they have been included in the constitutions of many countries of the world (formal recognition). In this sense, we can speak of some universalism of human rights.
