DESCRIPTION:Sunday Morning at the Marxist Library\n\nThe Political-Military Ideology of 
 The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK/North Korea)\n\n   U.S. 
 Marxists are often unfamiliar with the reigning ideology of the DPRK, for 
 example, believing it to be Marxism-Leninism.  The ideology, at least since 
 the 1970s, has been Kimilsungism-Kimjungilism, or Juche (self-reliance) and 
 Songun (military first). This presentation will cover the content of these 
 ideologies and the historical conditions under which they arose, including 
 the rejection of Marxism-Leninism for DPRK's socialist development. The 
 armed liberation struggles against Japanese and US imperialism, especially 
 from the 1930s to 1990s, are the context for DPRK ideology.  Also briefly 
 examined is Kim Jong Un's contemporary ideological addition of byungun 
 (parallel development of nuclear forces and economic development).  
   
 The Presenter, Al Sargis, founder-director of the Friedrich Engels 
 Institute of Marxist War And Military Analysis (FEIMWAMA), has studied 
 socialist militaries in the USSR/Russia, GDR, PRC, SRV and DPRK.  He has 
 made presentations on these matters to military science and social science 
 research institutes and universities in China.\n\n\nSun, Mar 24, 2019 –
