Though Juche Thought is enshrined in the constitution as one of the country's guiding principles, the regime has never shown any indication of subscribing to its universal-humanist bromides: “man is the master of all things,” “people are born with creativity and autonomy,” etc. I do not mean to imply that if an ideology is not lived up to, it is ipso facto a sham. […] But Juche is not even professed in earnest, and no wonder; its central notion of the masses' mastery of their fate runs counter to the sacrosanct notion of a uniquely vulnerable child race in the Leader's protective care. […] The pseudo-doctrine of Juche continues to serve its purpose all the same.

Beginning in 1966, North Korea's internal and external propaganda started to promote the word [Juche] with extreme vigour. The problem was that Kim Il-sung never received a higher education and was not particularly well versed in any branch of philosophy, including Marxism. For him, Juche was little more than a means to assert North Korea's independence from Moscow. And the system of total obedience to the Leader he was creating prevented his underlings in the ideological departments from reformulating it into a more intelligible form. Thus, when it came to explaining what ‘Juche’ thought actually is, North Korean ideologues limited themselves to just one sentence: ‘Man is the master of all things’, repeated and rephrased over and over.
