Resumo: | This article analyses North Korean ideologies concerning war and violence. For that, first there is a theoretical review of how ideologies are linked with organised violence. Siniša Maleševićʼs theory about the ideologisation of violence in Modernity is reviewed as well as Carl Schmittʼs concept of the political and his later update concerning partisanship. Following the theoretical approaches, there is an analysis of the North Korean ideologies proper, focused on Songun (military-first ideology) and on its counterpart the Chʼongdae (the gun philosophy) and what they stipulate with reference to violence and war. In the conclusion, it states that both Songun and Ch‟ongdae deal with enmity in extremes and are aware of the possibility of war involving North Korea. Even if just for defensive purposes, they call for revolutionary violence. They also serve the purpose of constant mobilisation and legitimisation of war in the country: This way it is always ready for war. Moreover, as both Schmittʼs and Maleševićʼs theoretical approaches would predict, these North Korean ideologies do not seem to be open for compromise, exactly because they deal with absolute enmity and dehumanize their enemies. |

Para isso, em primeiro lugar, há uma revisão teórica de como as ideologias estão relacionados com a violência organizada. A teoria de Siniša Maleševićs sobre a ideologização da violência na Modernidade é revisada, bem como o conceito de Carl Schmitts de política e sua atualização posterior sobre partidarismo. Após as abordagens teóricas, há uma análise das ideologias norte-coreanos adequadas, com foco em Songun (ideologia militar em primeiro lugar) em contrapartida a Ch’ongdae (a filosofia da arma) e o que elas estipulam com referência à violência e à guerra. Na conclusão, afirma que tanto Songun e Ch'ongdae lidam com inimizades nos extremos e estão conscientes da possibilidade de uma guerra envolvendo a Coréia do Norte. Mesmo que apenas para fins defensivos, eles pedem pela violência revolucionária. Eles também servem ao propósito de mobilização constante e legitimação da guerra no país: Desta forma, ele está sempre pronto para a guerra. Além disso, como ambas as abrodagens teóricas de Schmitt e Malešević poderiam prever, estas ideologias norte-coreanos não parecem estar abertas para o comprometimento, exatamente porque eles lidam com inimizade absoluta e desumanizar seus inimigos.
