Spies of North Korea: The Theory and Practice of North Korean Espionage

Spies of North Korea: The Theory and Practice of North Korean Espionage

Amanda J. Won

BLOOMSBURY ACADEMIC
2026
sidottu
Spies of North Korea: The Theory and Practice of North Korean Espionage provides an analysis of North Korean communism, known as Juche ideology, as well as its ultimate foreign policy goal - the revolutionization of South Korea through the reunification of the two Koreas. This book is based on the research methodologies from both primary and secondary resources that are unique to this topic. Primary research was conducted through a series of interviews with a former senior-level North Korean intelligence officer, under the alias of Dr. Dong-sik Kim, one of the few NKIS officers who had completed the 10-year long North Korean spy-training program at Bureau 225 - the main component of the NKIS that conducts HUMINT and special operations as well as training its spies. Dr. Kim infiltrated South Korea and defected in 1995. Secondary research was based on analyses of several memoirs by former North Korean spies - written in both Korean and English - and specifically, copies of NKIS' indoctrination materials on Juche ideology, which were secretly transferred from Pyongyang to Seoul during Dr. Kim's infiltration operation into the South. Indeed, these resources were written by Hwang Jang Yeop, the architect of Juche ideology, and the highest ranking North Korean official who had ever defected to South Korea.

I Spied for Stalin

Nora Murray

GB Publishing Org
2017
pokkari
Now reprinted, this revealing autobiography includes a prologue and epilogue written by two of the author's sons, Leeroy and Peter, who have pieced together more of this poignant love and life story. Nora's father, as Director General of the Soviet Foreign Office based in Moscow, is purged by Stalin, leaving his young daughter without kith or kin. The State forces her to meet up with diplomats and foreigners to report back with any information on their activities. One of her targets is John Murray, a cypher (code writer/decoder) at the British Embassy in Moscow. However, by falling in love with him she is classified as a traitor, arrested and imprisoned. John achieves her release by Stalin. In 1939, John and others of the Embassy staff are evacuated when the German army enters Moscow's suburbs. He is sent to Archangel, leaving Nora alone in his John's embassy quarters. With only forged papers, she begins a terrifying 1,000 kilometer journey to the desolate wastes of the Arctic port to bid farewell to John. Instead, they decide to marry; this and their eventual escape to safety and happiness in England shapes a thrilling climax to this true story.

Interkulturelle Räume im Spielfilm

Interkulturelle Räume im Spielfilm

Elisabeth Nora Sommerlad

Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden
2022
nidottu
Spielfilme imaginieren New York City oft als eine Stadt, in der das alltägliche Zusammenleben durch interkulturelle Begegnungen konstituiert wird. Das vorliegende Buch nimmt sich diesem Topos an. Die filmgeographische Studie analysiert, wie Spielfilme interkulturelle Begegnungen inszenieren. Die Autorin erarbeitet anhand von 17 US-amerikanischen Spielfilmen, wie interkulturelle Begegnungen strategisch inszeniert werden. Hierbei hinterfragt sie kritisch die Darstellungen gesellschaftlicher Herausforderungen, welche sich im Kontext des dargebotenen Miteinanders ergeben. Das Ergebnis sind sechs vielschichtige Dimensionen interkultureller Räume. Diese offenbaren, dass NYC letztlich vor allem als Stadt kultureller Koexistenz inszeniert wird – als Projektionsfolie einer Gesellschaft, in der sich Individuen anhand diffuser kultureller Marker beständig voneinander abgrenzen. Die Studie liefert damit einen Beitrag zum mediensensiblen Diskurs über interkulturelle Fragestellungen, denen in globalisierten, kulturell diversen und medienaffinen Gesellschaften höchste Relevanz zukommt.
