Editor's Note:
Im Sommer 2008 erlitt der Herrscher Nordkoreas Kim Jong Il einen Schlaganfall. Noch im gleichen Jahr designierte er seinen jüngsten Sohn Kim Jong Un zum Nachfolger und begann, die nordkoreanische Elite auf ihn einzuschwören. Trotz des Widerstands moderaterer Kräfte in der Arbeiterpartei gewann das Militär an Einfluss. Die Außen-, Innen- und Wirtschaftspolitik des Landes verhärtete sich. Nachfolgeregelung, Machtverschiebung und Kursänderung hingen miteinander zusammen. Nach Kim Jong Ils Tod Ende 2011 verschärfte sich der Machtkampf. Das 2012 von Kim Jong Un der Bevölkerung gegebene Versprechen, „den Gürtel nie mehr enger schnallen“ zu müssen, wurde schon 2013 wieder einkassiert. Zu Lasten der wirtschaftlichen Entwicklung wurde der Großteil des Staatsbudgets in die beschleunigte Atomrüstung gesteckt. Ansätze von Wirtschaftsreformen blieben stecken oder wurden zurückgedreht. Die Abschottung des Landes und die Kontrolle der Bevölkerung wurden verschärft. Bis 2016 hatten die Hardliner ihre Position konsolidiert. Nominell ist Kim Jong Un der Herrscher Nordkoreas. Besonders zu Anfang seiner Regierung war er jedoch wohl mehr fremd- als selbstbestimmt. Auch jetzt ist er kein Alleinherrscher, vielleicht nicht einmal der mächtigste Mann des Landes. Nordkorea wird vielmehr von einem prekären Kollektiv regiert, dessen Zusammensetzung variiert und in dem Einzelne mal schwächeren, mal stärkeren Einfluss haben. Als Folge der Dominanz der Falken in diesem Kreis ist das Leben für den Großteil der nordkoreanischen Bevölkerung noch härter, für die internationale Gemeinschaft die Aufgabe, Pjöngjang zu einem friedlichen Miteinander zu bewegen, noch schwieriger geworden. Acht Jahre lang, von 2007 bis 2010 und von 2013 bis 2018, war Thomas Schäfer deutscher Botschafter in Nordkorea. Er zählt damit zu den erfahrensten ausländischen Kennern des Landes. In Nordkorea hat er Tausende von mal kurzen, mal längeren Gesprächen geführt, hat dabei gelegentlich auch Informationen erhalten, die über die offiziellen Sprachregelungen hinausgingen oder ihnen widersprachen, und er ist viel im Land herumgekommen. Basierend auf diesen Gesprächen und auf offiziellen nordkoreanischen Quellen zeichnet Schäfer In diesem Buch in groben Strichen nach, wie die Diskussion über politische Richtungsfragen in der nordkoreanischen Führung seit 2007 verlaufen ist und wie das Leben der Bevölkerung dadurch beeinflusst wurde. Inwieweit herrscht in der Führung Konsens über wichtige Staatsziele wie Regimesicherung, Wiedervereinigung, Atomrüstung und wirtschaftliche Entwicklung? Wie reformfähig ist das Regime? Strebt es Atomwaffen tatsächlich nur zur Abschreckung an? ( Nein!) Welche Rolle spielen Atomwaffen für die von Pjöngjang angestrebte Wiedervereinigung unter nordkoreanischer Führung? Wie groß ist die Kriegsgefahr? Sind nach den Machtkämpfen der letzten Jahre weitere Richtungskämpfe zu erwarten? Wer hat das Sagen in Nordkorea? Wie sollte die internationale Gemeinschaft mit dem Land umgehen? Ist es moralisch vertretbar, in Nordkorea zu investieren? Unter welchen Bedingungen ist Nordkorea überhaupt zu ausländischen Investitionen bereit? Dies sind einige der Fragen, denen der Autor nachgeht. Die einzelnen Kapitel behandeln die Überwachung und Manipulation der Ausländer, die Schwierigkeiten, Informationen zu beschaffen, die europäische „Politik des kritischen Engagements“, die letzten Regierungsjahre Kim Jong Ils, die nordkoreanische Wirtschafts-, Innen-, Südkorea- und Sicherheitspolitik in der Ära Kim Jong Un einschließlich einer Diskussion der Gipfeldiplomatie zwischen Kim Jong Un, dem südkoreanischen Präsidenten Moon Jae-in und Präsident Trump. Das Buch schließt mit einer Darstellung der Machtstruktur und Empfehlungen zum Umgang mit diesem schwierigen Land.
