Based on her recent book, Reading North Korea (Harvard University Press, 2012), Sonia Ryang will present her views on cultural logic in North Korea, hoping to have an open discussion with the audience on recent “strange” events there, including nuclear weapons building on one hand and the basketball frenzy on the other.
Sonia Ryang was awarded a PhD in Social Anthropology from Cambridge University. She was a Research Fellow at Australian National University and taught at Johns Hopkins University. She is currently Professor of Anthropology and International Studies and C. Maxwell & Elizabeth M. Stanley Family and Korea Foundation Chair of Korean Studies, University of Iowa.
