This collection provides researchers with a unique opportunity to review the development of the Korean peninsula under a reactionary communist regime in the north, and a quasi-democratic government in the South. The documents in this collection highlight the internal affairs of the Koreas. For each country there are thousands of pages arranged topically and chronologically on crucial subjects: political parties and elections, unrest and revolution, human rights, government administration, fiscal and monetary issues, labor, housing, police and crime, public health, national defense, foreign policy-making, wars and alliances, education, religion, culture, trade, industry, natural resources, and more.
