Authoritarianism and Opposition in South Korea

By: Hak-Kyu Sohn

As one of the most successful ‘Newly Industrialized Countries’ and as the host for the 1988 Olympic Games, South Korea has become more and more important as a major international economic power. This development can be traced back through the struggles of the democratic movement against a military-based authoritarian regime which provided significant impetus for political change. First published in 1989, Authoritarianism and Opposition in South Korea draws on unofficial opposition documents and the author’s own experiences as an opposition activist to provide a unique historical and political analysis of the development of opposition in the 1970s under the regime of President Park. This era, when authoritarianism was at its height, saw the first establishment of the patterns of behaviour and the alignments of both the authorities and the opposition.

Millennialism in the Korean Protestant Church

By: Ŭng-gyu Pak,Ung Kyu Pak

This book explains the origin and development of premillennial eschatology in the evangelical Korean church from 1884 to 1945. It examines the eschatological implications of Korean religious thought, the eschatology of American missionaries, the horrific experience of Japanese occupation (1910-1945), and the enforcement of Shinto shrine worship in light of Korean Christians' tenacious hold on dispensational premillennialism. This book explains the place of premillennialism in the Christian life, and it deals with the cultural underpinnings of Christianity in Korean history by bringing to bear the complex social, political, and religious elements of Korean culture.

The Dawn of War in South Korea (1947–1950)

The South Korean Workers’ Party and the April Third Massacre

By: Kyu-hyun Jo

This book offers an analytical account of the April Third Massacre in Korea, a bloody confrontation between supporters of the Syngman Rhee Administration and those suspected (largely incorrectly) of being Communists, or members of the South Korean Workers' Party—the second largest Communist Party after Korea's liberation from Japanese colonial rule. As a result, some 80,000 villagers, fishermen, and policemen were killed. The book, drawing from a wide array of primary sources, ranging from South Korean governmental records, memoranda, memoirs, and recently unclassified documents, examines the role of the South Korean Workers' Party in the April Third Massacre on Jeju and how it shaped the origins of the Korean War. The author maps these origins of the Korean War from the outbreak of the April Third Massacre and through the ensuing chain of violence which included the Yo-su and Sun-ch'on Massacres of October 1948, engulfing the peninsula until 1949. Of interest to all scholars studying modern Korea, it is particularly relevant to historians focused on the Korean War, as well as political scientists and international relations experts interested in East Asian conflicts.
