Sommario/riassunto |
|
Ideological and political tensions have impeded paying attention to human rights violations against North Koreans; instead the security concerns of each nation have focused attention on North Korea's nuclear weapons programs. By describing the substantial connection between human rights and nuclear weapons issues in North Korea, this book urges a wide audience, including human rights activists, scholars, and educators, to show leadership in helping North Korean defectors seek freedom. |
