Even as its rise as a nuclear power unfolds on the nightly news, North Korea remains arguably the most mysterious country in the world. A virtual blackout of statistical information coming from the reclusive regime has shrouded the day-to-day lives of its inhabitants in secrecy. This groundbreaking study—which relies on rare U.N.–assisted household data and carefully scrutinized propaganda materials—offers the first comprehensive examination of the social and economic history of North Korea from its founding in 1948 to the present day
