In April 2009, in the wake of President Obama's Prague speech, the international community held four nuclear sec urity summits from 2010 to 2016 to promote nuclear security and prevent nuclear terrorism. The Nuclear Security S ummit has made significant progress in preventing terrorists from attempting to acquire nuclear weapons or fissile materials, but it still has limitations and problems. To solve this problem, the international community should resume the joint efforts for strengthening bilateral cooperation and multilateral nuclear security regime, and the participating countries should strive to protect their own nuclear materials and fulfill their commitments to secure nuclear facilitie s. Second, the United Nations(UN), the IAEA(International Atomic Energy Agency), International Criminal Police Or ganization(INTERPOL), the Global Initiative to Combat Nuclear Terrorism(GICNT), and the Global Partnership(G P) must continue their missions to promote nuclear security in accordance with the five action plans adopted at the Fourth Nuclear Security Summit. Third, the participating countries should begin discussions on the management and protection of military nuclear materials that could not be covered by the Nuclear Security Summit. Fourth, the intern ational community must strive to strengthen the implementation of the Convention on the Physical Protection of Nuc lear Material(CPPNM) Amendment and International Convention for the Suppression of Acts of Nuclear Terrori sm(ICSANT), prepare for cyber attacks against nuclear facilities, and prevent theft, illegal trading and sabotage invo lving nuclear materials.

"많은 나라들이 앞으로도 계속하여 원자력 발전을 채택할 것으로 예상되고 있는 현시점에서 각국의 정부와 국제기구들은 핵안보 문제를 해결하기 위한 일에 보다 많은 관심과 노력을 기울이겠다는 약속을 해야만 한다."

핵개발 포기동기는 핵개발 동기의 소멸, 즉 안보위협이 제거되었을 경우와 핵개발 자체에 소요되는 비용과 핵개발 의혹을 받게 되면서부터 받는 국제적인 제재에 따른 경제적 희생이 국민경제에 과중한 부담이 될 경우이다.

냉전 종식 후에도 동북아시아지역의 불안정 상황은 여전히 지속되고 있다 특히 핵군비와 관련하여 역내 각 국의 동향은 매우 민감한 상태이다. 이런 면에서 이 지역의 비핵지대화는 이 지역의 불안요인에 대한 안전보장 장치가 될 수 있다. 이해 당사국들이 대체로 소극적인 태도를 보이고 있기는 하나, 객관적 상황은 비핵지대화 논의에 유리하다. 논의를 본격화하기 위해서는 첫째, 핵보유국들의 비보유국들에 대한 소극적 안보 약속, 둘째, 핵보유국 상호간의 핵 선제 불사용 합의, 셋째, 핵보유국의 핵감축 의지 표명, 넷째, 일본의 핵투명성 제고 등의 충족이 요구된다. 현재까지 논의되고 있는 구상들로는 북한 핵문제에 대한 우려가 한창 고조되던 당시에 거론되었던 한반도 비핵지대화안, 동북아 비핵지대화안, 제한적 비핵지대화안 등이 있다. 5개 핵보유국들의 협조가 없는 한 비핵지대의 실현은 어렵다. 또한 역내에 3개 핵보유국을 가지고 있는 동북아 지역의 특성에 비춰 비핵지대화의 효과를 높이기 위해서는 첫째, 집단안보라는 보다 큰 틀을 전제로 하는 접근이 필요하며, 둘째, 핵보유국들의 거부반응을 괴려한 점진적 방식의 채택이 요구된다. 그러나 무엇보다도 역내 국가들 간의 신뢰 조성 및 평화와 안정의 증진이 우선해야 하며, 그 후 지역국가들 스스로의 주도로 논의를 이끌어 나가야 할 것이다.

This article aims for searching the clue of North Korea nuke-problem by understanding it contextually. We must see this from the beginning as many trials in settling the problem have failed. North Korea nuke-problem is related to the change of international implication as well as the domestic process of its development. At first, it started from the regime survival, which evolved with the effect of learning. During the Cold War, its development had combined the principle of 'self-defense' because of Sino-Russia conflict. Particularly, its meaning varied dramatically due to the collapse of Cold War system plus the advent of post-Cold War system. North Korea nuclear program has became a global problem based on the deterioration of North Korea's security milieu and Bush administration's policy. Therefore, the area of common solution for NK nuke-problem must be found in the context of regime survival and the change of its meaning by continual convergence effort.

Objectives: Nuclear security and atomic energy industry have always been the domain of political and economical diplomatic affairs. The issue of nuclear proliferation must be resolved politically or militarily given the importance of the problem, the impact it has on global security, the influence of major powers, and non-proliferation regimes. Considering scope of the budget, manpower, and scale of the project, the atomic energy issue was also viewed from an economic perspective. Therefore, the goal of this study is to depart from the conventional viewpoint and investigate if public diplomacy may be extended to a new issue domain of nuclear security and atomic energy. Methods: In order to determine whether there are any areas that overlap, the uniqueness of Korea's position in the nuclear security and atomic power domains is evaluated and compared with the traits of public diplomacy. Results: It seems plausible to broaden the scope and function of public diplomacy in that field given Korea's uniqueness in nuclear security and atomic energy issue and overlap with public diplomacy. This is especially true given that the state must take the leading role and that ongoing policy demands are made in light of Korea's security and economic structure. In reality, it is assessed that the Summer Fellows Program, run by the KAIST Nuclear Nonproliferation Education and Research Center (KAIST NEREC), has had a considerable impact on public diplomacy in the area of nuclear security and atomic energy. Conclusions: Nuclear security and atomic energy issues have traditionally been handled from the perspectives of political diplomacy, summit diplomacy, and economic diplomacy. However, this paper evaluate that the possibility of enhancing the role of public diplomacy in this issue area is high and underscore that the budget support, programs, and manpower for similar public diplomacy activities are needed. Through this, South Korea's nuclear security policy and atomic energy industry could be supported from international community and it will advance national interest.

북한의 핵개발 의혹이 전세계 초미의 관심사로 한반도를 비롯한 동북아 및 세계 안정에 심각한 위협이 되고 있다. 더욱이 핵 운반수단인 미사일을 북한이 그동안 중점 개발하여 상당한 수준에 이르렀다. 이러한 우려 속에 지난 9월 1일 국방대학원부설 안보문제연구소에서 "북한 군의 특수무기 능력과 개발전망"을 주제로 국제 안보학술토론회가 열렸다. 이글은 영국의 군사전문 월간지 "제인스 인텔리전스리뷰"의 상담역으로 있는 죠셉 버뮤데즈씨가 발표한 내용으로 지나온 북한의 미사일 개발 과정을 체계적으로 설명하고 있다. 우리 군도 향후 북한의 미사일 개발 방향을 예측해 이에 대한 대응전략을 신속히 구축하여야 할것이다.
