김정은 시기 북한 재정 연구: 최고인민회의 국가예산안 변화를 중심으로

Abstract

Capitalist countries try to solve the crisis by using their own finances when an economic crisis hits the country. In addition, when there is an industry that the state wants to invest in, it uses finances. And this is the same for the socialist states even North Korea. These characteristics add research value to finance. However, as with most data on North Korea, there is not enough data on North Korea's finances. The budget and settlement of the national budget are announced every year, but compared to other countries, it is quite insufficient. Due to these limitations, much research on North Korean financial management has not been conducted. Nevertheless, it is necessary to comprehensively understand and analyze the budget proposal announced by North Korea. This is because North Korea's limited but self-released materials contain many meanings. From the North's budget proposal, we can see that they increase the amount of budget revenue by changing or adding items to increase the amount of finance. Also, spending on national budgets shows that they try to invest in the industries they need, but sometimes these attempts do not pay off.
