*** The State We're In - Midweek Edition ***

'North Korea: Police State, Prison State'

The world has reason to be nervous about the rogue nation and its nuclear programme. And people within the country also have reason to be scared - it has 154,000 political prisoners in six camps across the country, and its human rights record is atrocious. We speak to a former prisoner, and to a former prison guard about what they went through.

Jung Gwang Il spent three years in a North Korean labour camp. While the country is notoriously closed to outsiders, the camps themselves are barely known within the country. And not many people live to talk about their time in one. Jung Gwang Il tells Jonathan how he survived the camp and escaped to South Korea.

A prison guard's escape: An Myeong Chul was a prison guard for eight years. While there, he saw prisoners starved, executed and he even beat them himself -- believing that they were all enemies of the state. But when he learned that he himself could wind up in prison himself, he stole a truck and escaped to China. Now all he wants is for the Koreas to be united, and forgiveness for what he did.

'The Music of Lutes and Harps' - (Originally broadcast May 2007)

*** Earth Beat (primary programme) ***

The medium may be the message, but what is the environmental cost of that message? We find out as the stories on this week's show look at the impact of getting the word out there. Why is publishing a book so bad for the planet? Are new e-books any better? We also look at less conventional 'publishing' as we meet an environmental graffiti artist, who uses mud rather than toxic paints. And in India, a graffiti movement is not only cleaning up ugly areas, it's also teaching kids how to read.
