  • Historical Relations Between Poland and North Korea from 1948 to 1980*

    Historical Relations Between Poland and North Korea from 1948 to 1980*

    International Journal of Korean Unification Studies Vol. 27, No. 1, 2018, 29−70. Historical Relations between Poland and North Korea from 1948 to 1980* Nicolas Levi** and Kyungyon Moon*** This article focuses on relations between Poland and North Korea from 1948 till 1980, focusing on places of remembrance of Poles in North Korea, and North Korean citizens in Poland. During this period, bilateral relations between these countries were very close due to their belonging to the same ideological movement. The article focuses on political, ideo- logical, cultural, and economic relations based on three historical phases of the Korean War (1950-1953), Post-Korean War (1953-1960) and distur- bance of Poland-North Korea relations (1960-1980). The paper argues that although Poland did make efforts to successfully foster mutual rela- tions, sometimes regardless of Polish interest, the behavior of DPRK authorities reduced the benefits Poland could gain from maintaining relations with this country. The DPRK focused on its interest and not on the interest of fraternal nations. This led to a negative image of the DPRK authorities among the Polish leadership and automatically to negative views concerning the DPRK population among Poles. Keywords: Asymmetry of relations, North Korea, Poland, Communism, Juche ideology * This work was supported by the National Research Foundation of Korea Grant funded by the Korean Government [NRF-2016S1A3A2924968]; This research was supported by “Research Base Construction Fund Support Program” funded by Chonbuk National University in 2018. ** Assistant Professor, Institute of Mediterranean and Oriental Cultures of the Polish Academy of Science, First Author. *** Assistant Professor, Chonbuk National University, Corresponding Author.

    DPRK) So Far This Year

    DEMOCRATIC PEOPLE’S 16 April 2004 REPUBLIC OF KOREA Appeal No. 01.68/2004 Appeal Target: CHF 14, 278, 310 Programme Update No. 01 Period covered: January – March 2004 The Federation’s mission is to improve the lives of vulnerable people by mobilising the power of humanity. It is the world’s largest humanitarian organisation and its millions of volunteers are active in over 180 countries. For more information: www.ifrc.org In Brief Appeal coverage: 36.3 %; See attached Contributions List for details. Outstanding needs: CHF 9,089,504 Related Emergency or Annual Appeals: 01.67/2003 Programme Summary: No major natural disasters have affected the People’s Democratic Republic of Korea (DPRK) so far this year. Food security is a major concern, especially in areas remote from the capital. The Red Cross Society of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK RC) has been granted permission from the government to expand the Federation supported health and care programme to another province, increasing the number of potential beneficiaries covered by the essential medicines programme to 8.8 million from July 2004. Due to delayed funding, the first quarter of 2004 has been used to finalise most of the programme activities from the 2003 appeal. Bilateral support from the Republic of Korea, the Netherlands and the Norwegian Red Cross Societies is supplementing Federation support. Partner national societies renewed their commitment to continue supporting DPRK RC. DPRK RC is regarded as an important organisation in DPRK by the government, donor country embassies, UN agencies and NGOs. Operational developments Harvests last year in DPRK were above average, however, the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) and the World Food Programme (WFP) state that, despite the good harvests, the situation remains “especially precarious” for young children, pregnant and nursing women and many elderly people.

  • Taking Stock: North Korea's Uranium Enrichment Program

    Taking Stock: North Korea's Uranium Enrichment Program

    The Institute for Science and International Security October 8, 2010 Taking Stock: North Korea’s Uranium Enrichment Program David Albright and Paul Brannan October 8, 2010 The Institute for Science and International Security October 8, 2010 Executive Summary North Korea’s centrifuge program poses both a horizontal and a vertical proliferation threat. It is an avenue for North Korea to increase the number and sophistication of its nuclear weapons and for it to proliferate to others who seek to build their own centrifuge programs. As a result, the priority is finding ways to either stop the program or to delay its progress through a combination of negotiations and sanctions. Procurement data obtained by governments and information from Pakistan, establish that North Korea is developing centrifuges. However, determining the centrifuge program’s status and the locations of its centrifuge facilities is difficult. Known procurements for North Korea’s centrifuge program do not show whether North Korea is able to produce significant amounts of highly enriched uranium. Yet the data support that North Korea has moved beyond laboratory-scale work and has the capability to build, at the very least, a pilot-scale gas centrifuge plant. However, the procurement data do not contain consistent numbers of procured items that would indicate the construction of a 3,000 centrifuge plant, large enough to produce enough weapon- grade uranium for about two nuclear weapons per year. Faced with uncertainties in assessments of North Korea’s centrifuge program, the U.S. intelligence community focused on the significance of the 2007 and 2008 discoveries of traces of highly enriched uranium (HEU) found on North Korean aluminum tubes and operating records for the Yongbyon nuclear reactor.

    Korea Economic Institute of America ACADEMIC PAPER SERIES NOVEMBER 30, 2017 Soap Operas and Socialism: Dissecting Kim Jong-un’s Evolving Policy Priorities through TV Dramas in North Korea By Jean Lee Abstract Introduction Romance, humor, tension — everyone loves a good sitcom, even Much has been written about North Korea’s film industry, the North Koreans. But in North Korea, TV dramas are more than beloved pet project of the late leader Kim Jong-il, who went mere entertainment. They play a crucial political role by serving to extreme lengths — including kidnapping his favorite South as a key messenger of party and government policy.
