Kim Jong-un

Throughout their school years teachers and other students remind equality 7-2521 that they are a sin because they think too quickly and they are too tall and they are different from their brothers. Just like in the documentary this ritualistic behavior occurs too, when almost always the North Korean citizens are around any pictures or statues of their “great leader’’ theIn Ayn Rand’s book, Anthem, the reader will find how shockingly similar Rand’s dystopian world is to North Korea. The reader…

Does the author or publisher endorse political or religious views that could affect objectivity? The author is a professional journalist currently working for Newsweek, with past employment by Fortune and Time. He has been reporting from China since 2000, and currently resides in Shanghai. I was unable to definitely ascertain if he is related to John W. Powell, who was tried for sedition in 1952, and also lived in China. A cursory search of Bill Powell’s biography did not identify any…

they are not self-sufficient. For this project I photo-shopped photos of Kim Jung-un, North Koreas dictator, along with a CNN Breaking News Headline. My goal was to bring forth a real life issue while comparing my central project theme,…

This quote states that military dictatorship is born by force and not democracy. This concept is present in both books were the government is dangerously powerful and uses any means necessary to scare its own people in doing what they want them to do. Writers of dystopian novels often write stories set in the future to warn us about the potential hazards of the choices we are making TODAY. The novels, Surviving Antarctica, and Legend both depict a future in which government has become…

originally planned to have 3,000 rooms (though its numbers has been significantly reduced due to structural constraints and the inclusion of facilities generally expected of five-star hotels) (Peninsularity Ensues). It may have been possible that Kim actually did set out to build the Ministry of…

by our international community. “High School students in America debate why President Roosevelt didn 't bomb the rail lines to Hitler 's camps. Their children may ask, a generation from now, why the West stared at far clearer satellite images of Kim Jong Il 's camps, and did nothing.” (Harden back cover). In the centuries ahead we will learn about how our nation failed the people of North Korea, and about this hidden genocide as well as how it could have been stopped. Hopefully the next…

Failed States index (FSI) uses a number of political, social and economic indicators to evaluate a state’s fragility, with North Korea satisfying majority of the indicators. Using these indicators, it demonstrates that North Korea is a failed state. Firstly, the economic assessment of North Korea is described as scepticism. North Korea does not release official economic data. However, based on the Congressional Research Service (CRS) findings in 2015, they suggested that DPRK had experienced a…

However, the theory of North Korean connection to the Sony hacking as a consequence of North Korea outraged of Sony film, The Interview, where two American aspiring journalists are recruited by the Unites States government to murder their leader Kim Jong-Un. The FBI has confirmed North Korea’s involvement; however, the hacktivist’s have not been captured. North Korea may have not have been behind the assault, affirming its administration 's refusal of any association to Sony’s attack. On the…

Everyone is equal. Everyone who inhabits the community is there to benefit the other. In North Korea, there is no access to cellphones, internet, and similarly to Anthem, even freedom. In North Korea they’re basically dependant on their leader Kim Jong-un. They worship him and focus just on him, very similarly to Anthem. Both rely on their government for resources and to tell them how to live. They only depend on what they classify as “we” and lean on that because they don’t have access to…

stopped. How Did the Genocide Happen? Who started it? It is well known that North Korea’s government is very different than the United States’, but it was not always this way. After World War II, the Korean peninsula was divided into North and South; Kim Il-sung came in to power.
