The North Korean Economy
Between Crisis and Catastrophe
Viewed from afar, North Korea may appear bizarre, or positively irrational. But as Nicholas Eberstadt demonstrates in this meticulously researched volume, there is a grim coherence to North Korea's political economy, and a ruthless logic undergirding it-one that unreservedly subordinates economic welfare to augmentation of political power. Th us, paradoxically, even as offi cial policies and practices consign the DPRK economy to a perilous realm between crisis and catastrophe, the country's leadership maintains unchallenged domestic control and has actually managed to increase its international influence.
