About this product
Product Information
For South Korean scholars, North Korea is a subject of research pregnant with the meaning of survival of the Korean Peninsula. Based on such a unique position, authors in this book raise and address questions such as how long stability will be maintained in the Kim Jong-un regime, who the power elites behind the system are, and if the North Korean economy is still a Communist planned economy.

The book arrived so fast, was better than its advertisement, had the best price of all including shipping, and was delivered by the post office, which I prefer. I will use this book seller again. The seller rated the book “good” but the book is pristine and like new except for a harmless square-inch scrape. I couldn’t be happier!
