    Not exclusively, no. Are you asking for a work specifically on the DPRK alone? Prolewiki’s article on the DPRK has 73 sources and lists them all out.

      Thanks that’s going to take me a little bit of time to get through.

      I’m interested in their takes on the famine and leadership structure.

        Famine was common in the 90s and early 2000s, when the USSR was dissolved and Korea was hit with especially bad weather conditions. Northern Korea in general is especially inhospitable towards agriculture. However, steady development and industrialized farming improvements have helped dramatically in improving food security despite sanctions.

        As for their leadership structure, Boer’s work goes well in-depth on it, while the Prolewiki article is less-so.
