Research and Markets: Defense and Security in South Korea 2011

DUBLIN--()--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/455e98/defense_and_securi) has announced the addition of the "Defense and Security in South Korea" report to their offering.

South Korea, a sovereign nation, is located in the southern portion of the Korean peninsula in east of Asia. For quite some time now, the issues it has had with North Korea have been a matter of concern. Following a series of violent outbreaks at the end of 2010, South Korea has redefined its rules of engagement with regards to future North-South disputes.

Reports that North Korea has already built an advanced uranium enrichment facility with the potential to produce nuclear weapons have been a key driver in changes. The South Korean armed forces have been centered mostly amongst the ground forces, hence making it susceptible to invasions from the north.

The report covers the following:

  • In order to understand the development of the South Korean defense and security industry, it is important to take a look at the geopolitical situation in the world, particularly in North East Asia.
