JUCHE VERSUS GLOBALIZATION

JUCHE VERSUS GLOBALIZATION

by Dermot Hudson JISGE chairman

The other day in the supermarket I came across something that symbolized a lot
about what is wrong with today's world a range of products entitled 'Global Style' in this case it was an 'American style cheese bagel'.

Globalization is clearly a crazy idea.It really means trying to refashion the whole world after the West. It entails the destruction of local economies and  local cultures. Imperialist imposed globalization will cause more unemployment,more hunger , more poverty, lower wages and more cutbacks in social services etc

Young people have taken up the struggle against capitalist and imperialist globalization so intensely.However this movement lacks leadership and a clear perspective on the alternative to 'globalization'.

The obvious solution to 'globalization' is to develop  self -reliant, self -sufficient national economies serving national needs. But how is this to be done in todays complex. This is where the Juche idea comes in . The Korean people under the leadership of the WPK and the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung built up a powerful independent national economy according to the Juche idea which emphasises the independent and creative stand.  The DPRK economy is able to produce to meet local needs .The Juche based independent socialist national economy of the DPRK shows that "another world is possible".

Below are 2 KCNA articles on the independent economy and self reliance

Pyongyang, March 12 (KCNA) --The independent national economy of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea has steadily developed in spite of the persistent economic sanctions and blockade of the United States and its allies. Korea's is an economy that develops on the basis on its efforts and resources to meet its people's demand and that serves the people for their happy life. It is also a comprehensive economy that produces by itself in the main industrial goods and agricultural products needed for economic construction, defence upbuilding and people's living.
The Korean people built a solid independent national economy in a short period after the Korean War and developed it as a powerful economy equipped with a consolidated economic structure and modern technologies through the fulfillment of several economic plans.
The abolition of taxation in 1974, the manufacture of such up-to-date machines as 10,000-t! on press and large-scale oxygen plant and the successful launch of satellite Kwangmyongsong No. 1 in August 1998 are results of the country's powerful economy.
Thanks to the national economy, the country's defence industry is capable of fully producing by itself sophisticated weapons and technical means and equipment necessary for the defence of the country.
With the independent national economy and a strong self-defence power based on it, the Korean people have defended socialism from the imperialists' military threat and aggressive moves.
The Korean economy has developed, unaffected by the imperialists' economic blockade and the changed situation of world economic markets.
Any kind of their economic sanctions and blockade can never work on Korea with its own solid economic foundations.

Pyongyang, March 17 (KCNA) -- Self-reliance is the Korean people's traditional mode of struggle. They have advanced victoriously, solving all problems with their own efforts and technology and under the motto of self-reliance in the whole course of the complicated and arduous revolutionary struggle.
Korean revolutionaries defeated the formidable Japanese imperialist aggressors and liberated the country, relying on the nation's revolutionary forces.
Inheriting the brilliant tradition established by them, Korean workers made tractors, lorries, bulldozers and excavators in the late 1950's though they lacked designs, technicians, materials and equipment.
In the early 1960's, they even made an electric locomotive with their own technology.
After the Korean War in the 1950s, the Korean people started the socialist industrialization from scratch and completed the histor! ic cause in a mater of 14 years.
Even in the periods of the "arduous march" and the forced march, they built many gigantic edifices, smashing the imperialists' intensified efforts to isolate and stifle the country.
They launched satellite Kwangmyongsong No. 1 in Juche 87 (1998) with their own efforts and technology, rezoned more than 200,000 hectares of arable land to suit the features of the socialist country and built large and modern salterns, motorways, waterways and factories in recent years.
All these achievements are products of self-reliance displayed by the Korean people in the era of the army-based revolution.
The Korean people, deeply aware through their historical experience that self-reliance is their only choice, will as ever seek to build a powerful and prosperous nation with their own efforts.

Thus Juche can make a vital theoretical and practical contribution to the

anti globalization movement.Let the flag of Juche fly at the head of the

anti globalization struggle.
