''Theses on the Socialist Rural Question in Our Country'', also known as the ''Rural Theses'' or ''Theses on the Socialist Agrarian Question in Our Country'' is a 1964 treatise by Kim Il-sung, the first leader of North Korea. The work lays out the most influential statement on North Korean agricultural policy and its implementation transformed the country's agriculture from a traditional into a modern one. Crop yields were increased, but some environmental problems like deforestation ensued. The ''Theses'' set out an application of Kim Il-sung's Three Revolutions Movement on agriculture. The three revolutions are: ideological, cultural and technological advancements in the agricultural field. The piece has become iconic and has been referred to in other important texts including the leaders' works. ==Overview== The ''Theses'' laid out a framework for the first North Korean agricultural and environmental policy that was indigenous and ideological. Much of that policy has remained the same ever since. The ''Theses'' were a change of paradigm in the way North Korean agricultural policy was thought. Robert Winstanley-Chesters calls it a "rare thing among North Korean texts, a piece of acutely coherent and systematic writing and thinking". This makes North Korean agricultural policy "knowable and accessible for analytical review", contrary to how media and academic narratives emphasizing the "opacity" of North Korea describe it. The work has been published, in addition to Korean, in English French, Spanish, German, Arabic, and Danish. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Theses on the Socialist Rural Question in Our Country」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
