| Abstract
|
:
|
Oh and Hassig draw on ten years of research about the small militarized state, whose culture is dominated by the official ideology of Juche, emphasizing self-reliant independence and worship of the supreme leader, General Kim Jong II. However, a collapsed economy and sensitive nuclear proliferation in the militaristic society have led to fear and anachronistic policies, retarding the social and political growth of the country.
