Created in 1945 when Korea was partitioned, North Korea or the
Democratic People's Republic of Korea remains the world's most
secretive nation. Even the few permitted visitors are tightly
monitored by minders, so accounts of those who have escaped are the
main source of information on conditions within the country. What
is not in doubt is the totalitarian control over the population
exercised by the ruling dynasty. Kim Jong-un is the grandson of the
first dictator Kim Il-sung. Until the development of a credible
nuclear arsenal, it was possible to ignore North Korean posturing.
But that is no longer an option as test firing proved that not only
were other Asian nations directly threatened but the USA as well.
While President Trump and Kim Jong-un met in Singapore in June
2018, there remains distrust and dangerous uncertainty. Professor
Moorcraft is superbly qualified to trace the history of this small
rogue nation that represents a major threat to world peace. He goes
on to examine the political and military implications.
