Pros And Cons Of Genocide In North Korea

466 Words2 Pages

There are many different ideas on how genocide in North Korea can be solved, most based on how genocide has been solved in the past. Ideas like sending resources to North Korea, initiating war, and coming to an agreement with the leader of the country. The first idea being to send resources in the country is a possibility. With the technology of today and the vast influence of the United States it would not be hard to provide for this country. However one problem is that North Korea is so cut off and isolated that the leader will not accept any outside help. So why not just drop material in crates? Well now the problem lies in what the leader of the country will do with the things dropped in the country. Most likely since everything is already …show more content…

But by how things are run in North Korea the people believe that the outside world is much worse than what they are used to, so why would they be receiving things they don’t have from other countries? Most likely the leaders would not reveal any material that was dropped and just keep it for the superiors of the country. The next idea is to take down the government by war. There are pros and cons to this idea, though. Pros being it could work and many victims would be saved. Also there is a big chance instead of making a world war many countries would be on the defending side rather than on North Koreas side (Leitenber, 2002). A con could be the unpopular vote for initiating war. The majority of Americans are scared to start a war thinking it could escalate, and with the power of today’s nuclear weapons that could be total destruction and death for millions of people (Leitenber, 2012). The last idea is to come to an agreement with the leader. This has been tried many times before and at one point there was a form of communication, but ever since the United States sent a letter of warning to the country, all communication has been cut off (Stanek, 2014). All of these are possibilities could be reconsidered with different approaches but that all lies on whether society is willing to take that

    As an American, we cannot comprehend the types of laws that are enforced upon North Korean Citizens. A few bizarre controlment rules that I still struggle to comprehend myself are there are only twenty-eight ways North Korean men and women can cut their hair, North Korean Men and Women are not allowed to own a bible or any western literature, and also there are only three channels on tv and you must only watch those. Along with those laws in place, the North Korean government has control over education and news which leads to many growing up to hate other countries besides their own with no reasoning behind their hatred. Our lives along with many others are still being affected by the iron grip of societal norms.

One way that the authority can manipulate these people, are by taking advantage of the ethnic tension that is between the groups of people.

    In Nothing to Envy written by Barbara Demick, the author describes North Korea as "a country that has fallen out of the developed world" (Demick 4). Through diction, Demick is attempting to demonstrate the notion that North Korea is surviving solely without interruption from the outside world. This is done by ruling the country by a totalitarian dictatorship, such as an absolute monarchy controlled by generations of the same family in pursuit of the same goal. In North Korea, each individual person is denied basic human rights in attempt to control the incoming knowledge about the world around them. They are taught to solemnly worship and abide by the rules of their supreme leader and are denied any uncontrolled access to electronics, such as movies, television, and internet.
