In this unique and insightful new book on forced migration, Markus Bell explores the hidden histories of the men and women who migrated from Japan to the world’s most secretive state. Through vivid ethnographic details and interviews with North Korean refugees, Outsiders: Memories of Migration to and from North Korea reveals the driving forces that propelled thousands of ordinary people to risk it all in Kim Il-sung’s Worker’s Paradise, only to escape back to Japan half a century later.
