Famine in North Korea: Markets, Aid, and Reform

Stephan Haggard, Marcus Noland


Famine in North Korea: Markets, Aid, and Reform Stephan Haggard, Marcus Noland In the mid-1990s, as many as one million North Koreans died in one of the worst famines of the twentieth century. The socialist food distribution system collapsed primarily because of a misguided push for self-reliance, but was compounded by the regime's failure to formulate a quick response-including the blocking of desperately needed humanitarian relief. As households, enterprises, local party organs, and military units tried to cope with the economic collapse, a grassroots process of marketization took root. However, rather than embracing these changes, the North Korean regime opted for tentative economic reforms with ambiguous benefits and a self-destructive foreign policy. As a result, a chronic food shortage continues to plague North Korea today. In their carefully researched book, Stephan Haggard and Marcus Noland present the most comprehensive and penetrating account of the famine to date, examining not only the origins and aftermath of the crisis but also the... книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин In the mid-1990s, as many as one million North Koreans died in one of the worst famines of the twentieth century.

Живописный Карамзин, или Русская история в картинах Пан пресс. В первой половине XIX века петербургский издатель А.Прево выступил с инициативой выпуска Пан пресс. В первой половине XIX века петербургский издатель А.Прево выступил с инициативой выпуска "Истории государства Российского" Н.М.Карамзина в живописных картинах, которые по его предложению были созданы художником Г.Чориковым, а составителем текста стал В.М.Строев. Изданный в 1830-1840-х годах "Живописный Карамзин" вскоре получил широкую популярность не только у юных читателей, но и у их родителей. Переизданный в XXI веке "Живописный Карамзин", основанный не только на исторических событиях, но и на народных преданиях, отвергаемых более поздними исследователями, безусловно интересен современному читателю не только тем, что до наших дней сохраняет за собой важное познавательное значение, но и как образец популярной исторической литературы XIX века....

Snakecharm (Kiesha'ra (Paperback))

Amelia Atwater-Rhodes


Snakecharm (Kiesha'ra (Paperback)) Amelia Atwater-Rhodes ZANE COBRIANA, COBRA shapeshifter, thanks the gods every day for Danica, his hawk pair bond, and the peace their union has brought to the avian and serpiente. Soon, Danica will have a child to carry on their royal line. But what should be a happy time is riddled with doubt. Syfka, an ancient falcon, has arrived from Ahnmik claiming that one of her people is hidden in their midst. The falcons are more powerful than the avians and serpiente combined, and Syfka shows nothing but contempt for Zane and Danica’s alliance. To Zane’s horror, his own people seem just as appalled as Syfka is by the thought of a mixed-blood child becoming heir to the throne. Is Syfka’s lost falcon just a ruse to stir up controversy among them? The truth lies somewhere in their tangled pasts—and the search will redefine Zane and Danica’s fragile future. Praise for Hawksong : “Atwater-Rhodes has created a stunning adventure that draws readers in... книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин ZANE COBRIANA, COBRA shapeshifter, thanks the gods every day for Danica, his hawk pair bond, and the peace their union has brought to the avian and serpiente.
