Korean society is becoming more polarized. Demands for ‘economic democratization’ and a fairer redistribution of wealth occupy centre-stage of political campaigns, debates and discourse. The contributions offer perspectives on this wide-ranging socio-political change by examining the transformation of organized labour, civil society, the emergence of new cleavages in society, and the growing ethnic diversity of Korea’s population. Bringing together a team of scholars on Korea’s transition and democratization, the story the books tells is one of a society acutely divided by the neo-liberal policies that accompanied and followed the Asian financial crisis. Taken together, the contributions argue that tackling inequalities are challenges that Korean policy-makers can no longer postpone. The solution, however, cannot be imposed, once again, from the top down, but needs to arise from a broader conversation including all segments of Korean society. The book is intended for a readership interested in South Korean politics specifically, and global experiences in | 出版日期 | Book 2018 | 关键词 | neo-liberalism; democracy in South Korea; democratic legitimacy in South Korea; public discontent in So | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-57066-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-86069-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-57066-2 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2018 |
