i'm just a member of the diaspora that hyperfixates on the historical/cultural aspects of the country of my ancestry 😅
I used an external web app to convert and compile all the users from these Packs into one place so that I can pin it as a separate feed.
I hope that one day there will be an easy way to make a concatenated list where I can combine multiple lists into a single list.

I hope that's a typo, or else I've missed something.

Includes everything from North Korean human rights, nuclear weapons to South Korean democracy and the Chosŏn dynasty of Korea!
A major new history of North and South Korea, from the late nineteenth century to the present day, written by my boss @victordcha.bsky.social & Ramon Pacheco Pardo
Using innovative research methods from data scraping to ethnography, including microsurveys of ordinary North Koreans, @victordcha.bsky.social unearths a trove of new information.
A seminal book by @victordcha.bsky.social & @daveckang.bsky.social that became a landmark of an ongoing debate in academic and policy circles about whether to engage or contain North Korea.
Empirically it traces the recent emergence of a North Korean diaspora and argues that the non-democratic nature of the DPRK homeland regime fundamentally shapes diasporic politics.
B) on a slightly lighter note, TIL a word construction. I wonder what the Americanist community is like…
I don't know what the criteria for the inclusion are, if there is any, so no problem if I cannot be added into.
Thanks.
