Description

Explore the history of the Paekjong, the lowest group within the rigid hierarchy of traditional Korean society. This book examines their lives as outcasts throughout the Choson period from 1392 to 1910. It provides a detailed look at their historical and social background while focusing on their fight for human rights and equality during the colonial era in Korea. A central part of this study is the Hyongpyongsa, also known as the Association for an Equitable Society. Active from approximately 1923 to 1935, this group led the longest-lasting social movement during the colonial period. Readers will learn how their activities led to direct confrontations and shaped the struggle for social justice in a changing political landscape. This work is an essential resource for those studying Korean history, social movements, and the history of human rights.
