North Korea: State of Paranoia: A Modern History

North Korea: State of Paranoia: A Modern History

North KoreaÂ is a countryÂ that continuesÂ to make headlinesâ€”arousing curiosity and fear in equal measure.Â The worldâ€™s most secretive nuclear power, it is a nation that still has Gulag-style prison camps, no internet, and bans its people from talking to foreigners without official approval. In this remarkable and eye-opening book, bestselling author Paul French takes the reader inside the worldâ€™s most secretive country. He examines the history and politics of North Korea, Pyongyangâ€™s complex relations with South Korea, Japan, and America. As China begins to tire of its unruly ally, what are the implications of Kim Jong-unâ€™s increasingly belligerent leadership followingÂ the death of his father, Kim Jong-il? As an already unstable North Korea growsÂ everÂ more unpredictable,Â antagonizingÂ enemies and allies alike, North Korea: State of Paranoia, delivers a provocative and frightening account of a potentially explosive nuclear tripwire.
