Origins Of North Korea'S Juche: Colonialism, War, And Development

This book argues that North Korea has outlived forecasts of its collapse because of Juche--a unique political institution built on the simple notion of self-determination, whose meanings and limits have been shaped by Koreans' experiences with colonialism, war, and development amidst surrounding superpowers that have complicated their aspirations.
