Abstract
It can hardly be said that the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK or North Korea) has lacked academic attention, yet this book identifies a clear gap in our understanding of the challenges that beset the hermit kingdom. From the outset it offers a distinctive approach that enables the exploration of the “co-constitutive” (p. 3) relationship between development and geopolitics. This is a much-needed new analysis of the development situation in North Korea, one that incorporates historical experiences, colonial legacies, socio-cultural insights, and current geopolitical trends, and has the potential to open policy options that have hitherto been unidentified.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
