Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center,c2015 9781931368308 330 8 $aScholar and senior journalist Kim Hakjoon provides a timely analysis of the rise of the Kim Il Sung family dynasty and the politics of leadership succession in Pyongyang, including Kim Jong Il's death and the advent of his son Kim Jong Un. Drawing on official North Korean statements and leaked confidential documents, journalistic accounts, and defector reports, the book synthesizes virtually all that is known about the secretive family and how it operates within a bizarre governing system. Particularly valuable for a Western audience is the author's extensive use of South Korean studies of the Kim family, many of which have not been translated into English. Dynasty is insightful reading for officials, journalists, scholars, and students interested in the Korean Peninsula and its prospects. 606 $aKim, Il-song, 1912-1994 606 $aKim, Chong-il, 1942-2011 606 $aKim, Chong-un, 1984 606 $aHeads of state--Succession--Korea (North)--History 606 $aHeads of state--Family relationships--Korea (North)--History 606 $aPolitical culture--Korea (North)--History 606 $aKorea (North)--Politics and government--20th century 606 $aKorea (North)--Politics and government--21st century 615 0$aKim, Il-song, 1912-1994. 615 0$aKim, Chong-il, 1942-2011. 615 0$aKim, Chong-un, 1984. 615 0$aHeads of state--Succession--Korea (North)--History. 615 0$aHeads of state--Family relationships--Korea (North)--History. 615 0$aPolitical culture--Korea (North)--History. 615 0$aKorea (North)--Politics and government--20th century. 615 0$aKorea (North)--Politics and government--21st century. 676 $a951.9305 700 $aHakjoon$b Kim$01827347 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9911009164103321 996 $aDynasty$94395510 997 $aUNINA
