Kevin Gray and Jong-Woon Lee focus on three geopolitical 'moments'
that have been crucial to the shaping of the North Korean system:
colonialism, the Cold War, and the rise of China, to demonstrate
how broader processes of geopolitical contestation have
fundamentally shaped the emergence and subsequent development of
the North Korean political economy. They argue that placing the
nexus between geopolitics and development at the centre of the
analysis helps explain the country's rapid catch-up
industrialisation, its subsequent secular decline followed by
collapse in the 1990s, and why the reform process has been markedly
more conservative compared to other state socialist societies. As
such, they draw attention to the specificities of North Korea's
experience of late development, but also place it in a broader
comparative context by understanding the country not solely through
the analytical lens of state socialism but also as an instance of
post-colonial national development.
