Samenvatting
Explores the institutional, ideological, and conceptual development of the modern state on the peninsula. This book analyzes the state's relationship to five social sectors, each through a distinctive interpretive theme: economy, religion, education, population, and public health.
"Kyung Moon Hwang has given us a model of the disciplined historian’s view, a work that goes beyond the idea that Korean modernization was a sudden result of pressures from Japan and the West. Rather, by connecting the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, he demonstrates that its seeds are to be found in habits of mind and social life under Korea’s traditional bureaucratic state."—Donald N. Clark, Trinity University
"In this provocative book, Kyung Moon Hwang digs deep into the sediment of the last two centuries of Korean history to fashion a revisionist narrative of modern statecraft. Refusing to credit or blame any single regime, his judicious account makes a compelling case for the gradual but contested rationalization of governmental practices that touched the lives of the peninsula’s inhabitants in a myriad of ways. In doing so, Hwang provides a fuller understanding of how authorities in both North and South Korea continue to target their respective populations in the pursuit of modernizing goals." - Todd A. Henry, Associate Professor of History, Director of Transnational Korean Studies, University of California, San Diego.
