Bulletin of the Korean Association of Social Scientists
‘The Juche idea, the Songun idea is focusing the attention of the world, when the independence is turning to the strong trend at present. Many people including the figures in political, public and academic circles and the Juche idea followers over the world are now developing the study and dissemination of the Juche idea, the Songun idea, making efforts to apply it in the reality of their countries.
The Korean Association of Social Scientists issues this Bulletin for the world progressives and the Juche idea followers who want to have deep understanding of the Juche idea, the Songun idea and to know the reality of the DPRK in which the Juche idea is applied brilliantly.
The Bulletin will carry the papers written by many local and foreign figures and scholars to explain the Juche idea, the Songun idea scientifically and theoretically, the articles introducing the DPRK which translates the idea into reality, news of seminars on the Juche idea and the news of activities done by the Juche idea followers.
We hope the Bulletin of the KASS will serve as mental pabulum and close companion that give hopes, conviction and courage to the people fighting for independence and justice.’
