The Giver Book Study: Exploring China and North Korea Cultures

Teaching the comparison of North Korea and China’s culture and government in the geography classroom can give a clear understanding of the difficulties of global politics. When exploring and comparing North Korea and China’s culture and government, it is important to consider the historical, social, economic, and political contexts that shape each country’s unique identity.

With a demanding centralized government, both North Korea and China have strict control over information and the independence of their people. Both operate under a unitarian one-party authoritative system.

Students will explore topics from China’s Great Leap Forward to its Child Policy Acts and North Korea’s command economy to North Korean defection. Following this study, your students will have gained a wide range of knowledge and a much better understanding of the struggles experienced by both the people and leaders of China and North Korea and the difficulties they continue to experience along with their accomplishments.
