Description

Explore the unique political structure of North Korea through this scholarly work from the Routledge Advances in Korean Studies series. This book examines how the legitimacy of the North Korean state relies on the personal legitimacy of its leaders. It provides an in-depth look at how the state maintains control through the indoctrination of the population using specific leader symbols and the enactment of personality cults in everyday life. By analyzing the frequency and scale of leader-symbol-making, this text illustrates why North Korea is defined as a "leader state." The research shows how these cult activities are integrated into the daily activities of the people, affecting their minds and emotions. This volume offers a detailed perspective on how symbols and cult practices are deeply embedded in the social and political fabric of the nation, making it an essential resource for students and researchers of Korean studies, anthropology, and sociology.
