Overview

Unlike most of the Soviet-established socialist regimes, North Korea has not experienced and fundamental changes as a result of the demise of the Soviet Union. However, while it plays an important role and presents a difficult strategic challenge in the international arena, little is known about the North Korean system. To better understand North Korea we must try to understand the cognitive processes and perceptions of its people. To this end, North Korea: Ideology, Politics, Economy features first-hand, balanced accounts from a diverse group of contributors representing ten countries, including the former Soviet Union, China, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Bulgaria, Germany, Japan, Canada and the United States.
