Thus, economic growth, which is the increase in output, was related to population growth, investment, land growth, and increases in productivity. According to Smith, society was dependent on the economy’s ability to sustain its increasing workforce. Investment was dependent on the rate of savings. Land growth was dependent on the ability to acquire more land (through conquest) or on the increase in the productivity of existing land. He also believed in the division or specialization of labor as a…

- popular refrain about the North Korean economy is that it is reverting to a command-andcontrol economy in the face of sanctions and pandemic isolation. An example is a Washington Post article from February, which claimed Kim Jong Un “turned his back on even modest economic and market reforms and reverted back to de facto Leninism, emphasizing central planning while trying to clamp down on the private entrepreneurial activity.” This claim reflects a misunderstanding of its current economic policy. Actually, Kim Jong Un’s economic reforms emphasizing markets and competition are continuing.Kim’s major change in North Korea’s economic policy was to encourage competition. Previously, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea’s (DPRK) production unit was responsible for only executing the production targets required by the country.
