The North Korean government’s main reactions to the changes taking place in the international environment during this time are illustrated clearly in this passage: fear of increased isolation, apprehension of external threats, and resistance to reform. The transformation of the international situation between the years of 1989 and 1992 presented a daunting challenge for the already struggling North Korean government.

  • NK Pro Ship Tracker
    The New Pro When you’re working on the frontlines of the North Korea portfolio, you need far more than news coverage alone. WHO WE SERVE Government/Diplomacy Corporate/Finance News/Media Security/Military Research/Academia NGOs The ultimate resource for professionals working on North Korea While the DPRK is ‘unknowable’ to many, there is more information available about the country than ever. But identifying the key signals – where one statement, leadership change, or weapons test can change the course of the future – is becoming more challenging by the day. NK Pro cuts through the noise to serve those who need quality, reliability and timeliness the most: people on the frontlines of policy, business and research. “As someone who has followed and assessed developments in North Korea for many years, I can not recollect a time in the past few decades when interest was higher. News coverage has expanded exponentially but quantity is no substitute for quality. I have found NK Pro to be the best source for keeping me current on events, as well as in assisting my research.” William Newcomb, Former member of the UN Panel of Experts “In the 11 years of work training over 2,000 North Koreans in economic policy, business, entrepreneurship and infrastructure, I have depended on NK Pro as a rare source of reliable news on an issue plagued by agendas, misinformation, and rumors.” Geoffrey See, Founder, Choson Exchange “When you have too much information and when information is conflicting, the ground truth is the deciding factor. NK Pro provides its subscribers with that ground truth.

  • Current Affairs in North Korea, 2010-2017: a Collection of Research Notes
    235 Current Affairs in North Korea, 2010-2017: A Collection of Research Notes Rudiger Frank Abstract Starting with the public introduction of Kim Jong-un to the public in autumn of 2010 and ending with observations of consumerism in February 2017, this collection of 16 short research notes that were originally published at 38North discusses some of the most crucial issues, aside from the nuclear problem, that dominated the field of North Korean Studies in the past decade. Left in their original form, these short articles show the consistency of major North Korean policies as much as the development of our understanding of the new leader and his approach. Topics covered include the question of succession, economic statistics, new ideological trends such as pyŏngjin, techno- logical developments including a review of the North Korean tablet computer Samjiyŏn, the Korean unification issue, special economic zones, foreign trade, parliamentary elections and the first ever Party congress since 1980.

Although the U.S. government forbade its citizens from travelling to North Korea, BPP leader Eldridge Cleaver along with other Panthers bypassed travel restrictions and visited North Korea to join anti-imperialist journalist conferences in 1969 and 1970. In North Korea, officially known as the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), the Panthers found a new ideology and a government that was critical of the U.S. government. The Panthers established an alliance with North Korean leaders who they recognized as an independent force within the world communist movement. They believed that the "Black colony" inside the United States could learn from the DPRK's self-reliant stance in political, economic, and cultural matters. This study adds to recent scholarship on the global influence of the BPP and opens a new field of inquiry, as the BPP-North Korean relationship has not been analyzed in-depth.

  • Lunar New Year Macarthur, General Douglas
    894 Lunar New Year The lunar New Year, known as 561, W6ndan, W6ni! or Cbongch '0, is one of the most important holidays in Korea. During this holiday, there are traffic jams throughout the country as people rush to see their family and relatives. On the morning of Lunar New Year, people don traditional dress (hanbok). Various foods and wine are prepared, and then set in front of an ancestral tablet. The table is meticulously arranged according to Confucian tradition; however, many families also have their own traditions governing details of the arrangement. In general, fish is put on the east, meat on the west, fruit in front, rice and soup behind and liquor on the front table. A ceremony is then held during which the male family members pay respect to their deceased ancestors up to the fourth generation by making three full bows. Family members also visit the graves of their deceased ancestors. On this holiday, after cutting the grass from around the grave, they make a simple offering and then bow three times. In addition to paying respect to the deceased, each family member is expected to make two formal bows to his or her elders. According to custom, the elders then give the person a gift of money, particularly if the person is a child. Special foods are prepared for this holiday. In particular, rice-cake soup is typically served instead ofrice. For this reason, the question 'How many bowls of rice-cake soup have you eaten?' is sometimes used to ask one's age. In North Korea and China, mandu (dumpling) soup is often eaten instead.

  • The Geographical Construction of National Identity and State
    THE GEOGRAPHICAL CONSTRUCTION OF NATIONAL IDENTITY AND STATE INTERESTS BY A WEAK NATION-STATE: THE DYNAMIC GEOPOLITICAL CODES AND STABLE GEOPOLITICAL VISIONS OF NORTH KOREA, 1948-2010 BY JONGWOO NAM DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Geography in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2012 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Colin Flint, Chair Professor David Wilson Assistant Professor Ashwini Chhatre Professor Paul F. Diehl ABSTRACT This study is a textual analysis of North Korea ’s geopolitical discourses. Through the analysis of North Korea ’s geopolitical visions and codes, this study provides a theoretical framework to explicate weak nation-states ’ foreign and security policies beyond overly power-centered perspectives. In addition, this study suggests an alternative policy toward North Korea for neighboring states beyond the dichotomy of containment and engagement policy. Using textual data from North Korea regarding the geographical construction of its national identity and state interests, this study proposes a theoretical framework which focuses on a weak nation-state ’s geopolitical agency, the relationship between geopolitical visions and codes, and the construction of territory for geopolitical discourses in a particular geopolitical context. The main findings of this study suggest that this theoretical framework provides a valuable perspective through which to understand how weak nation-states use geography to construct their national identity and state interests, and how the relationship between their geopolitical visions and codes changes over time. In particular, this study emphasizes the role of territorial construction in the way a weak nation-state naturalizes the concept of the state as an autonomous subject through nationalism and security discourse.

  • Library of Congress Collection Overviews: Korean Studies
    COLLECTION OVERVIEW KOREAN STUDIES I. SCOPE This overview surveys the Library’s collection of materials relating to the study of Korea. The Korean Team of the Asian Division has custody of materials written in the Korean language. Other materials pertaining to Korean studies are held in their appropriate custodial units in the Library. The collection of Korean materials began in earnest in 1950 when the Korean Unit was established under the Japanese Section, at that time part of the Library’s Orientalia Division. Most of the Korean materials were in fact written in Japanese. However, the Korean Unit was the only location among all of the United States’ government offices that collected materials about Korea. Thus, all requests related to Korea were sent to the Korean Unit. The collection quickly developed over the following years and underwent organizational changes, integrating into the Chinese and Korean Section in 1964. The Korean Section at the Library of Congress was established in 1990 because of the generous support of the International Cultural Society of Korea, which presented the Library with a gift of one million dollars on Congress’s 200th anniversary in December 1989. The Library began to acquire current Korean trade publications on a regular and systematic basis in 1955 after obtaining approval from a Korean dealer. One of the significant strengths of the Korean collection is the Korean government publications after the Republic of Korea and the U.S. signed an agreement on September 24, 1966. In the l920’s, the Library acquired a notable collection of books published in Korea, but written in Chinese characters.

Ciò che invece non giunge attraverso i media è una chiara figura in grado di descrivere come realmente vivono i Nord Coreani, i vari strati che compongono la loro società, il loro stile di vita e le diverse attività che caratterizzano la loro quotidianità.
