We think Collective leadership would be the most effective way of leadership. First, using Kim Jong-Il's family would be unwise, as none of them have been governmentally trained or mentioned as being possible successors. Also, Kim Jong-Il may have too much influence among his family. Therefore, there would be no changes made when a member of the same family rules. Military leadereship would result in many power struggles much like how Japan fought within itself when there was the use of governor generals. Finally, South Korean Absorption would cause too much of an economic shock to South Korea to do all of a sudden. However, collective leadership gives a range of different people to rule in cooperation. Therefore, there would be alternative ideas to solve problems, instead of one dictator at the top.
