Anchored by the experience of his five trips to North Korea and his interactions with citizens from all walks of life, Jeppesen reveals how the North Korean system actually functions and perpetuates itself in the day-to-day, beyond the propaganda-fueled ideology. He challenges the notion that Pyongyang is merely a "showcase capital" where everything is staged for the benefit of foreigners, as well as the idea that Pyongyangites are brainwashed robots. With unique personal insight and a rigorous historical grounding, Jeppesen goes beyond the cliches of "taboo tourism" and the "good versus evil" tenor of politicians and media reports. See You Again in Pyongyang is an essential addition to the literature about one of the world's most fascinating and mysterious places"--Amazon. 600 10 $a Jeppesen, Travis, $d 1979- $x Travel $z P'yoÌngyang. $z P'yoÌngyang. 600 10 $a Kim, ChoÌng-uÌn, $d 1984- $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2011038915 600 17 $a Kim, ChoÌng-uÌn, $d 1984- $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01914654 648 7 $a Since 2000 $2 fast 650 7 $a Manners and customs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01007815 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 650 7 $a Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919811 650 7 $a Travel. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01155558 651 0 $a P'yoÌngyang (Korea) $x Social conditions $y 21st century. 651 0 $a P'yoÌngyang (Korea) $x Politics and government $y 2011- 651 0 $a P'yoÌngyang (Korea) $x Social life and customs $y 21st century. 651 7 $a Korea (North) $z PÊ»yoÌngyang. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01410749 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018011328.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C3A2C1B80C2C11EAA2E5F95597128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
