WPS 08-7: Ending the Korean War: Considerations on the Role of History ^[1], by Kathryn Weathersby, Ph.D. ^[2] (Dec. 2008). In this paper, Dr. Weathersby argues that as the complex task of constructing a peace regime on the Korean peninsula begins, constant confrontation with historical inquiry, which undercuts the natural tendency to simplify and distort the past into national myths that hinder reconciliation, will be necessary.
