North Korea is one of the most troubled societies on earth. The country's 24 million people live under a violent dictatorship led by a single family, which relentlessly pursues the development of nuclear arms, which periodically incites risky military clashes with the larger, richer, liberal South, and which forces each and every person to play a role in the "theater state" even as it pays little more than lip service to the wellbeing of the overwhelming majority.

Long overshadowed by Japan and China, South Korea is a small country that happens to be one of the great national success stories of the postwar period.

With no natural resources and a tradition of authoritarian rule, Korea managed to accomplish a second Asian miracle.
