Maybe? Social-darwinism is basically the principles of eugenics, so maybe a far-right current.

Far-rght as in open-market far right? Social Darwinism is not only about domestic policies but also external politics. And for that, the nation should be united, left-wing style. If female liberation helps to produce tanks and planes for war effort, why not? The DPRK is feminist and Darwinian/Machiavellian.

Well, the notion of applying Darwinism to the leading of society (that is, "survival of the fittest") is usually the discourse of far-right regimes. I, personally, don't think Darwinism can, or should, be applied to politics, it is the description of a natural process, not a blueprint for a society.

I wouldn't call the DPRK Darwinian either, I don't think there is any kind of genetic selection within the regime and their policy of self-reliance doesn't, in my view, show any sort of Darwinism in their thought, but that they understand the concrete geopolitical position they are in.
