Paved With Good Intentions: The NGO Experience in North Korea (2003) reports the findings of a research study that examined the impact of NGO and U.N. humanitarian relief efforts in North Korea after 1995. Through this study of relief activities, the authors (Scott Snyder, L. Gordon Flake, Chung Oknim and Michael Schloms) shed light on what is arguably the world’s most inaccessible and closed nation. The research study was supported by a grant from the Smith Richardson Foundation. (Contact info@mansfieldfdn.org for purchase information.)
