Southeast Asia-North Korean Relations
It is a great pity that the American missionary in Japan, W. E. Griffis, gave his 1882 account of Korea – a country that he did not visit until many years’ later – the title The Hermit Country. The...

North Korea-US relations under Kim Jong Il
Books about North Korea and the United States tend to be full of righteous indignation that such a small and insignificant country should defy the world's only superpower and that it should apparently follow what its leaders see as its own interests rather than those of the wider—and generally undefined—‘international community’. Recent examples of this genre include Surrender is not an option (Threshold Publications, 2007), the memoirs of John B…

The 'Bankoku Shimbun' Affair
In December 1875, the Tokyo press was full of rumours that there would soon be a new Japanese-language newspaper on sale. At the end of the month, there came the not-unexpected announcement that the Nisshin Shinjishi (Reliable Daily News), founded some years previously by a Yokohama journalist, J. R. Black, would cease publication on 31 December

The Korean Peninsula
A l'aube du cinquantenaire de la fin de la guerre de Coree, sept ouvrages recents, couvrant l'ensemble de la periode, contribuent a une meilleure connaissance de la peninsule coreenne et proposent des perspectives sur les developpements futurs. L'ouverture des archives occidentales sur les annees 1940-1950 et de nouveaux materiaux en provenance de la Chine ou de l'ex-URSS ont notamment permis de renouveler l'historiographie de la guerre de Coree,…
North Korea in the 21st Century
North Korea is not easily accessible, but boasts some of the most beautiful scenery in the Korean Peninsula, and arguably in East Asia. Travel to and in the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is tightly controlled, while political, economic, social and cultural life is played out in terms of a not readily understood philosophy, known as juche. The country maintains a watchful and often defiant relationship with the rest of the world and insist…
Art under Control in North Korea
Given the general lack of knowledge about the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea) in the West, it is not at all surprising that there is an almost total ignorance of the arts in that country. The relatively few visitors to North Korea may notice the architecture and the dramatic posters that mark the capital, and in recent years, the North Koreans have invited visitors to see what are called ‘Mass Games’, but which might be more a…
