Nork Paranoia and Acceptance of US Aid
A new book, North Korea: The Paranoid Peninsula - A Modern History, is reviewed here: A glimpse into North Korean thinking.
The book discusses the "aid economy" of the DPRK, noting that "[b]etween 1995 and 2002 the US government donated almost 2 million tonnes of food aid and US$1 billion in energy and other aid to North Korea, making the country the largest single Asian recipient of American state aid."

Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
