"Thank you, Father Kim Il Sung" is the first phrase North Korean
parents are instructed to teach to their children. From cradle to
grave, North Korean citizens are surrounded by the all-encompassing
presence of the "Great Leader" and his son, the "Dear Leader" Kim
Jong Il. The Kim dynasty is much more than an authoritarian
government; it also holds itself out as the ultimate source of
power, virtue, spiritual wisdom, and truth for the North Korean
people. Heterodoxy and dissent are repressed, quickly and
efficiently, with punishments meted out to successive generations
of the dissident's family. The study that follows was commissioned
by the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, an
independent, bipartisan U.S. government agency that monitors
freedom of religion or belief abroad, as defined in the Universal
Declaration of Human Rights and other international instruments,
and that provides independent policy recommendations to the
President, the Secretary of State and the Congress. Forty former
North Koreans were interviewed extensively regarding conditions of
freedom of religion or belief in the DPRK.
