Description

This revised edition of Korean Society examines how ordinary citizens shaped Korea's dramatic political transformation through civil society and voluntary organizations. Moving beyond elite-focused analyses, the book explores Korea as a compelling global case study of grassroots participation in democratization. The collection investigates the role of civil society organisations operating outside state structures in driving political and social change, offering comparative perspectives on Korea's unique path to democracy. Ideal for students and scholars of Asian politics, history, and social movements seeking to understand how ordinary people became agents of political transformation in one of the world's most significant democratic transitions.
