State-centric to Contested Social Governance in Korea: Shifting Power


Add your own review!

Overview

In this interdisciplinary study of governance Hyuk-rae Kim traces how civil society and its establishments in South Korea have evolved over time, how they differ in motivation from their Western counterparts, and the part civil society has played in consolidating democracy as the governance system in Korea changes from a state-centric to a contested one. As much a study of contested governance as a study of contemporary Korea, this book will be of huge interest to students and scholars alike of Korean politics, Asian politics, governance and civil society.
