In: Statsvetenskaplig tidskrift, Band 105, Heft 1, S. 18-24
ISSN: 0039-0747
The ongoing division of the Korean peninsula, a country with 5,000 years of unbroken history & ethnic homogeneity, represents an unnatural state of affairs for Koreans. Minjung is a Sino-Korean term for 'mass movement' & is associated with nationalism, in both its Marxist & liberation theological analyses. The minjung movement dates back to the late 19th century, while the peninsula still was under Chinese rule, & is identified with the struggle against feudalism on the peninsula; later iterations of the minjung were associated with resistance to Japanese rule, &, in South Korea, with student movements against authoritarian & military rule. In recent years, credit for democratic reforms in South Korea have been associated with the minjung movement. 26 References. A. Siegel
