Featuring interviews with more than thirty North Koreans who defected to Seoul and Tokyo, the book explores the subjective experience of the nation's famine and its citizens' social and psychological strategies for coping with the regime. These oral testimonies show how ordinary North Koreans, from farmers and soldiers to students and diplomats, framed the mounting struggles and deaths surrounding them as the famine progressed. Following the development of the disaster, North Koreans deployed complex discursive strategies to rationalize the horror and hardship in their lives, practices that maintained citizens' loyalty to the regime during the famine and continue to sustain its rule today. Casting North Koreans as a diverse people with a vast capacity for adaptation rather than as a monolithic entity passively enduring oppression, Marching Through Suffering positions personal history as key to the interpretation of political violence." -- Publisher's description. 650 0 $a Refugees $z Korea (North) $v Biography. 650 0 $a Refugees $z Korea (North) $x Attitudes. 650 0 $a Victims of famine $z Korea (North) 650 0 $a Famines $z Korea (North) 650 0 $a Human rights $z Korea (North) 651 0 $a Korea (North) $x Social conditions. 650 7 $a Famines. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00920590 650 7 $a Human rights. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963285 650 7 $a Refugees. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01092797 650 7 $a Refugees $x Attitudes. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01092799 650 7 $a Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919811 650 7 $a Victims of famine. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01166340 651 7 $a Korea (North) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01214151 655 7 $a Biography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423686 830 0 $a Contemporary Asia in the world. 941 $a 2 952 $l N2AX314 $d 20210728020348.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826034818.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E987E07E76EF11E5AEA3E6B6DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b DIVInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
