Table of Contents

The illusion of unity : despite appearances, North Koreans are not all of one mind, united around their leader
The life of the leader : given the opportunity, dictators dictate
The economic system : command socialism does not work
The economy of everyday life : most people find a way to make a living
The information environment : propaganda is everywhere, but other news is creeping in
Hidden thoughts : reality and ideology are in conflict
The law, political class, and human rights : the law is made to protect the leader, and only he enjoys full human rights
Defectors : sometimes running away is the best option
The end comes slowly : for all its problems, the Kim regime appears to be stable.
