Abstract
In North Korea, the level of scientific technical research and development is evaluated as low owing to the contradictoriness and limitations of social system. Especially the recent fisheries research fruits are embodying the scientific technical policy of the government faithfully. The characteristics of the fisheries research system and recent research movement in North Korea are summarized as follows : First, the research system is not equipped with sufficient condition for the researchers to act to the best of their individual ability on account of standardized governmental control. Second, the fisheries research activities are excuted mainly on the means of industrial problem solution rather than academic ones. Accordingly, the level of fisheries research can be estimated the same as early in 1970s in South Korea. Third, analysis by the fisheries research sectors shows that research activities on the marine fishery and aquaculture are somewhat active, but on the marine products processing are falling behind comparatively.
