Even under peaceful conditions, external and internal actors will inevitably influence the Korean unification process. Avoiding the potentially destabilizing effects of unification will require efforts to ensure that foreign actors act supportively through the process. As South Korea pursues engagement with North Korea, thinking about unification through a stabilization framework can provide critical clues on navigating major challenges that unification might bring.
