Editorial Reviews
Review
'Byung-Yeon Kim's book on the North Korean economy is one-of-a-kind. It not only synthesises the surprisingly large amount of information we have on the fast-changing North Korean economy, but also provides a coherent framework for understanding what is happening there now. Not simply a work of economics, this is political economy in the best sense, particularly in its discussion of marketisation from below, possible transition paths for North Korea and the ever-present possibility of breakdown.' Stephan Haggard, Krause Distinguished Professor, University of California San Diego
'This is the most important book in the last half century, which comprehensively removes veils of the North Korean economy. Byung-Yeon Kim takes the reader on a joyful tour of solving major mysteries of the economy, based on a rigorous treatment of both macro- and micro-evidence.' Masaaki Kuboniwa, Founding Research Director of the Russian Research Center, Institute of Economic Research, Hitotsubashi University, Tokyo
Book Description
This book offers a comprehensive and systematic study of the North Korean economy through interviews with refugees and the analysis of data from Chinese firms who deal directly with North Korea. It is for academics and students studying the economics and political economy of North Korea and East Asia.
