Women Representing Women: The Case of South Korea
This study investigates the question of whether the increased descriptive representation of women in the Korean National Assembly (KNA) is making for a substantial difference in the women s actual legislative success. Employing the National Assembly Bill Information System data this study examines the extent to which women legislators introduced and passed gender-related bills in the KNA over one and a half decades between 2000 and 2016. Our resu…
Electing Women to the Japanese Lower House: The Impact of the Electoral System
Social Network Model of Political Participation in Japan
The objective of the study is to re-examine the Verba, Nie, and Kim (VNK)'s path-breaking analysis of political participation and political equality, under the inclusion of a social network model in Japan. In particular, the present research investigates how and why we find the extremely low correlations between one's socio-economic resource level (SERL) and political participation in Japan, the evidence unsatisfactorily explained by the VNK anal…
Value Change and Non-Violent Protest in South Korea: An Empirical Analysis
Using the first, second, and sixth waves of the World Values Surveys, this article examines the extent to which the mass public's values have changed and/or persisted and their impact on political orientations, measured by protest potential and leftist ideology, in Korea. We find that the emergence of an authoritarian-libertarian value cleavage has played an important, if not vital, role in shifting mass political attitudes and in enhancing the p…
The Women's Movement in South Korea Revisited
Using unique survey data collected in 2000 and 2010 and a novel approach to the study of women's movement, this study examines the extent to which the women's movement has persisted and/or changed over the past decade in South Korea. The core emphasis of the paper is on whether Korean women's organizations have changed mobilization repertoires that are important for movement formation, and if so, how and why. The findings indicate two things. Fir…
Economic Voting in South Korea: Pocketbook or Sociotropic
Using 2003 Asian Barometer Survey study data, this paper examines the economic voting model in the 2002 presidential election in South Korea. The core emphasis of the paper is on an investigation of the relative effects of different dimensions/scopes of economic evaluations on voting behavior, namely whether one form of assessment (e.g., pocketbook vs. sociotropic) can have similar consequences for electoral participation as others. The findings …
The Paradox of North Korea's Ideological Radicalism: Shaky Social Basis of Strengthening Ideological Campaigns
IntroductionNorth Korea, the most isolated state in the world, regards itself as a dynasty and embraces a unique ruling ideology. The North defines itself as a Kim Il-Sung nation: the leader is worshipped as a deity and political power has been passed from the regime's founding leader (Kim Il-Sung) to his son (Kim Jong-Il). The political leader has absolute power over the entire society.Events that occur in the country often make no sense to outs…
Social Capital and Political Participation in South Korea
This article, using the second and third waves of the World Values Surveys study, investigates the development of social capital as understood in terms of civic engagement in Korea. The causal antecedents of social capital and its consequences on mass political attitudes and behaviors are also examined. For the purpose of the empirical studies in this article, however, we evaluate the influence of associational life on a single aspect of politica…
The New Politics, Culture Wars, and The Authoritarian-Libertarian Value Change in Advanced Industrial Democracies
The plurality of conflicting worldviews that are now found in the Western advanced industrial democracies has created values and belief systems that are markedly at odds with each other, which in turn has projected a whole new set of new politics or culture war issues onto the political agenda. The authors have empirically identified an authoritarian-libertarian dimension of value change that captures an important dimension of this shift. They de…

Value Change and Democratic Reform in Japan and Korea
This study explores the underlying causes of the processes of democratic reform in Japan and Korea over the past decade. In both nations, elite-challenging pressures from below have been the stimulus forcing reforms on the governing elites. For this reason, changes in mass attitudes and values become a crucial explanatory variable in accounting for recent political reforms. The authors discuss the pattern of political development in these two nat…

Korean Women's Politicization: The Effects of Public/Private Constructions
This paper examines the current politicization of women in Korea by advancing a theoretical argument that the privatization of women, whether from traditions of Confucianism in Korea or liberal patriarchalism in the U.S., hsa had similar inhibiting effects. Also examined are women elites and certain demographic characteristics in Korea. Our findings indicate that Korean women in the early 1980s were neither politically engaged as their American c…
Party Identifiers in South Korea: Differences in Issue Orientations
Democracy finally arrived in South Korea in the late 1980s at the end of the third wave of democratization,1 overcoming 30 years of direct or indirect control of the political process by the military and soldiers-turned-politicians. By 1992 South Korea had open elections, legal opposition parties, and procedures that allowed winners of elections to assume control of the government. The 1992 presidential election, considered to be the turning poin…

Culture Shift and Popular Protest in South Korea
Dramatic changes have taken place in sociopolitical value orientations in South Korea throughout the post-World War II period, primarily as a function of intergenerational change and rising levels of education. This article, by using the 1982 Korea Gallup Poll survey and the value change thesis, investigates the distribution of a number of fundamental social values and analyzes the extent to which these social values are persisting and/or changin…
