Much of this fear is focused on North Korea and Iran, two 'rogue states' that have violated nonproliferation rules and engaged in provocative actions, including nuclear and ballistic missile tests. Conventional wisdom dictates that the regimes in these countries have a uniquely defiant and dangerous nature, and that coercive measures such as sanctions and preemptive strikes are the most effective way to deal with them. But how do the neighbours of these two states view them, and how does this perception map onto the regional landscape in East Asia and the Middle East?
