Supreme People's Assembly
The Supreme People's Assembly (SPA; ) is the legislature of North Korea. It is ostensibly the highest organ of state power and the only branch of government in North Korea, with all state organs subservient to it under the principle of unified power. However, in practice it is a rubber stamp (politics), rubber stamp legislature which exists to approve decisions made by the ruling party as a formality, and which has little to no real power of its own. It consists of one deputy from each of North Korea's 687 constituencies, Elections in North Korea, elected to five-year terms. The Constitution of North Korea, constitution identifies the SPA as the "highest organ of state power" and all state positions, including the President of the State Affairs of North Korea, President of the State Affairs and in theory the Premier of North Korea, Premier of the Cabinet, trace their authority to it. The Assembly typically does not legislate directly but delegates that task to a smaller #Standi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

People From Chaeryong County
The term "the people" refers to the public or common mass of people of a polity. As such it is a concept of human rights law, international law as well as constitutional law, particularly used for claims of popular sovereignty. In contrast, a people is any plurality of persons considered as a whole. Used in politics and law, the term "a people" refers to the collective or community of an ethnic group or nation. Concepts Legal Chapter One, Article One of the Charter of the United Nations states that "peoples" have the right to self-determination. Though the mere status as peoples and the right to self-determination, as for example in the case of Indigenous peoples (''peoples'', as in all groups of indigenous people, not merely all indigenous persons as in ''indigenous people''), does not automatically provide for independent sovereignty and therefore secession. Indeed, judge Ivor Jennings identified the inherent problems in the right of "peoples" to self-determination, as i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
