The Flaws Of Human Nature In Macbeth

Kim Jong-Un is severely abusing his power of leadership in North Korea. As he becomes stronger in the political world, he appears to be channelling what is a crazed

Kim Jong-Un, the First Chairman of the National Defence Commission, an ambitious and arrogant guy. His ambitious identity could be exposed from: ‘Threatening to fire his increasingly capable missiles toward the United States’ and ‘By declaring war on South Korea’ [Inside the mind of

It seems the people of North Korea have a strong emotional attachment to the Kim 's, which is not surprising since the country is so small it is understandable for Kim to establish strong relationships with his people and allow the population to gain trust in him. However,

The government structure of North Korea has its existence in one man, Kim Jong Un. It existed in his father, Kim Jong Il, before him, and in his grandfather, Kim Il-sung, before him. North Korea has one of the few successful hereditary dictatorships based on a personalistic regime where the leaders are worshipped as almost a deity (after Kim Il-sung’s death he was made “eternal president”) creating a dynastic transfer of power (Aoki, 2012). In China the one party of the Chinese Communist Party will rule as an Authoritarian body over the nation, but in North Korea the sole power rest dangerously in the arms of one person. Some of the reason for this dissimilarity between the two government structures lies in the country’s differing political cultures.

To the point of unhealthy obsession, not unlike a cult. If Kim Il-sung had asked for her life, she would have given it gladly. At the other end of the spectrum, Jun-sang “lived with a fear that was so internalized that he wasn’t able to articulate it, but it was ever-present” (35). His parents has insured that he knew to keep his mouth shut about personal beliefs. When Kim Il-sung died-“he had been contemplating his own reaction, or lack thereof, with an intellectual detachment, but suddenly he was gripped with fear. He was alone, completely alone in his indifference- The revelation was followed quickly by another, equally momentous: his entire future depended on his ability to cry. Not just his career and his membership in the Workers’ Party, his very survival was at stake” (pg. 98). Junsang like many North Koreans had to accept his position in life without question lest he risk massive consequences for himself and his family. Jun-sang could not have been the only North Korean to have been indifferent to the death of Kim Il-sung, but any likeminded individuals would never be able to publically show anything but desperate

Present day ruler, Kim Jong Un is known for his cruel ways of ruling and his nuclear power. North Korea has no religion, as it is discouraged. Because there is no religion, most citizens get into fights about their ideas of religion. Other people are too afraid to talk about their religion and even pass it on to their children because of what Kim Jong Un might do. Kim is known for executing people to get his way. Since he came to power, he has ordered at least three hundred and forty people to death. One hundred and forty of these people were apart of his government. Due to the executions, his people fear him. On a different topic, North Korea is the 119th largest trading economy in the world, exporting 2.83 billion dollars and importing 3.47 billion dollars. North Korea's largest trading partner is China, gaining food and energy. Other trading partners include, Pakistan, Asia, Russia, etc. China was also the one who gave North Korea nuclear weapons. North Korea was short on nuclear weapons and Kim decided it was time to advance the weaponry. As of 2014, the North Korean Army has 950,000

North Korea is ruled by a leader named Kim Jong II. North Korea is like an isolated country that are being brained wash by their one leader Kim Jong II. People are taken and are taught in a young age on who to rule and who are the bad people and have hate towards the US. North Korea has false fantasy about the US making

There is no question that Macbeth is a character of many flaws, despite having overcome such great obstacles in his remarkable rise to power. The status of king is one that Macbeth had neither deserved nor utilized as he should have, to lead his people towards prosperity. Instead, Macbeth coveted and later used the power of the throne out of selfishness, under the delusion that it was a position that he was destined to achieve by any means necessary. Through the path from captain to king, Macbeth demonstrates greatness through the realization of his capabilities in murder, deceit, and determination. Yet, Macbeth’s continuous lust for power and his reliance on others such as Lady Macbeth finally unveil the flaws in his character that doom him to his death.

In present, Kim Jong Un in North Korea has been ruling the country with suppression possessing much darker ambition. Since Kim Jong Un wanted more authority he has killed anyone who has threatened his power, even his uncle. As a consequence, citizens of North Korea are facing difficulties such as starvation and cold

Life in North Korea’s high contrast with life in the United States is marked by nonexistent personal freedoms and harsh punishments. One example of restricted freedom in shown in their leader, Kim Jong-un. He, who they address as Dear Leader, is treated like

Macbeth’s consequences from his ambition force him into killing Duncan, making his own decision to murder Banquo, and believing prophecies from witches. Macbeth’s ambition causes him to assassinate Banquo with murderers he employed. Macbeth becomes assured in himself from his first time planning out an assassination on Banquo. As Macbeth becomes to be paranoid that Banquo and his future generations will take his throne. He hates the thoughts of this and realizes that he has to get rid

He represents people who feel like need a change in the world. Overall the power controls everything in today’s society. For example, in today's society, North Korea is a great example of how knowledge can affect people. North Korea, like the World State, is a totalitarian society controlled by a dictator, in this case, Kim Jong Un. North Korea is similar to the World State because they manipulate and convince their people that the government is doing the right thing; by convincing everyone to hate the rest of the world.

The human will is oftentimes weak and impressionable, and Macbeth’s will shifts from doing what is right for his country to bettering himself and become the king of

Macbeth’s temptation for the throne leads Macbeth to killing King Duncan. Macbeth himself acknowledged his vaulting ambition that would drive him to murder Duncan as he says, “Let not light see my black and deep desires” (Shakespeare 1.3.143). Duncan’s announcement about naming Malcolm to be his heir made Macbeth realize that he would need to take a course of action for the witches prophecies to come true. Killing King Duncan is the beginning of a dark path in which Macbeth is about to embark. Similarly, Macbeth’s jealousy and selfishness to the throne leads Macbeth to kill his friend, Banquo. When the witches prophesize a greater destiny for Banquo than Macbeth, they say “Lesser than Macbeth, and greater, Not so happy, yet much happier” (Shakespeare 1.3.63-6). Macbeth cannot stop thinking about Banquo’s prophecy of the three witches. Macbeth gets ruthless at this point, does not care for a guilty conscience. Macbeth has become so accustomed to violence that he did not hesitate in the planning of Banquo’s murder. Macbeth will not let anyone stand in his way from keeping his crown, even at the risk of killing

Dictator Paragraph Although Kim Jong il had some good leadership qualities, overall he was a harmful leader for North Korea. The first reason he was an awful leader is because Kim Jong il was very irresponsible for his country. For example, after the Cold War North Korea fell into poverty and famine. Kim Jong il didn’t attempt to fix the problems of poverty after the war because he focused on the policy of “songun” where all of the country's scarce resources and food go to the military.
