Description

Explore the complex political economy of the DPRK with this researched volume from Routledge. Nicholas Eberstadt examines the ruthless logic that governs North Korea, explaining how the nation subordinates economic welfare to the expansion of political power. While official policies push the economy into a state between crisis and catastrophe, the leadership maintains domestic control and has increased its international standing. This book provides a deep look at why North Korean economic practices may seem irrational from the outside, but actually follow a specific coherence. It is an essential read for those studying business and economic history within the context of global political structures.
