10 lat Kompleksu Przemysłowego Keasong: krótka historia ostatniego projektu współpracy gospodarczej Półwyspu Koreańskiego
Ralph M. WROBEL
Abstrakt
Po pięciu miesiącach, specjalna strefa ekonomiczna Kompleks Przemysłowy Keasong (ang. Kaesong Industrial Complex, KIC) w Korei Północnej została ponownie otwarta 16 września 2013 roku. Stanowi to ostatnią pozostałą oznakę współpracy gospodarczej pomiędzy północą o południem na Półwyspie Koreańskim. Ustanowiony w okresie „słonecznej polityki” (1998-2007) i otwarty w 2003 roku projekt było kontrowersyjny od samego początku. Niniejszy artykuł zawiera przegląd historii projektu, wyjaśniając jednocześnie jego znaczenie dla obu stron oraz dla pokojowego rozwoju w Korei. KIC miał wzmocnić relacje międzykoreańskie, poprawić wiedzę mieszkańców Korei Północnej na temat gospodarki rynkowej, konkurencji i demokracji, jednak zakończył się niepowodzeniem. Pozostała jedynie możliwość zarobienia przez Koreę Północną pieniędzy od Korei Południowej, a dla Korei Południowej – możliwość wykorzystywania taniej siły roboczej z Północy. Co więcej, wszystkie próby polityczne spełzły na niczym. Z tego względu, jedyny ostały relikt tej ery powinien zostać ostatecznie zamknięty.
