The paper evaluates the shifting relationship between state, society, and markets in an authoritarian context. Can there be a North Korean civil society? On one hand, the growth of markets has presumably altered the relationship between state and society, shifting power in favour of private market players while hollowing out the regime’s legitimacy. On the other hand, markets are still beholden to the state. Thus, markets may actually empower rather than weaken the state as the latter may manage to co-opt the former.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1580263991451{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Keywords[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”3/4″][vc_column_text]North Korea, markets, social change, authoritarianism, legitimacy, civil society[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_section css=”.vc_custom_1552539323998{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1573696823456{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Recommended Citation[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”3/4″][vc_tta_accordion active_section=”0″ collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Chicago Style” tab_id=”1573696858016-9fb05f30-27ed”][vc_column_text]
