Opting out or left out? The gendered determinants of marriage in South Korea
Objective This study examines the determinants of marriage decline in South Korea, a representative case of the “demographic crisis” sweeping East Asia. Background The major theories accounting for marriage and family trends are for the most part based on Western cases. A complementing focus on non‐Western societies is likely to identify a more diverse range of processes governing marriage patterns in advanced capitalist societies. Method The stu…
Redefining Multicultural Families in South Korea
South Korea is currently undergoing one of the most dramatic demographic transitions in world history. The transition is reflected across several social indicators, including declining fertility and marriage rates. The combination of the lowest total fertility rate in the world (0.72 in 2023) and greater longevity (Korean women are predicted to live longer than any population starting with the 2030 birth cohort) is fundamentally reshaping the age…
The Structure of Protest Cycles
Although the concept of protest cycles has received much attention in the collective action literature, its empirical operationalization remains relatively crude compared to the rich theoretical discussion. Reimagining social movements as populations of interlinked protests, we demonstrate the advantages of analyzing protest event networks with a novel dataset related to South Korea’s democracy movement. In our conceptualization, protest events p…
The Impact of Delinquent Friendship Networks and Neighborhood Context on Suicidal Ideation among South Korean Youths
We examine the association between ties to delinquent friends and suicidal ideation among adolescents, and whether this association varies across neighborhoods. We analyze two waves of data from the Korean Youth Panel Survey, which comprise nationally representative samples of high school students in South Korea, a country with the highest suicide rate in the developed world. Results from hierarchical linear models show that, net of individual an…

Repressive Coverage in an Authoritarian Context
While most studies of the repression-mobilization relationship have focused on the impact of the former on the latter, recent work has shown that characteristics of protest can influence state repression strategies. This article corroborates recent work on the repression of social movements and shows that both weak and threatening attributes of protest events contribute to the "repressive coverage"—the likelihood of repression—of social movements…
Past Activism, Party Pressure, and Ideology
Studies have found that participation in social movements has long-term consequences for individuals' personal life choices and political beliefs. An important but understudied subject in this literature is the impact of past activism on political behavior in an institutional context. The entry of past activists into Korea's National Assembly offers a unique opportunity to assess the continuing effects of movement participation in the context of …
Spill‐Up and Spill‐Over of Trust
In comparison to the heated debate over the origins of trust in political institutions, few studies have empirically examined the linkage between trust in political and nonpolitical institutions at the individual level. In this study, we utilize a two‐step methodology to investigate attitudes toward the government in the broader context of attitudes toward related nonpolitical institutions in South Korea. Results from latent class analysis reveal…
Unintended Consequences of Repression
Research regarding the impact of repression on social movements has yielded conflicting findings; some argue that repression decreases the total quantity of protest events while others argue that it motivates protest. To move beyond this impasse, various scholars have suggested exploring how repression influences the quality of social movements. This study assesses the impact repression had on the formation of alliances between different social g…
Differential Impact of Repression on Social Movements
During the height of authoritarianism in South Korea (1972-1979), Christian activists challenged the state along two dimensions. First, protesting Christians formed formal social movement organizations to better garner the resources to sustain their social movement. Second, they waged a discursive battle that challenged the legitimizing rhetoric of the state. By 1979, Christians developed a social movement industry involving the network of formal…
