Rights Claiming in South Korea (Hardcover)

Although rights-based claims are diversifying and opportunities and
resources for claims-making have improved, obtaining rights
protections and catalysing social change in South Korea remain
challenging processes. This volume examines how different groups in
South Korea have defined and articulated grievances and mobilized
to remedy them. It explores developments in the institutional
contexts within which rights claiming occurs and in the sources of
support available for utilizing different claims-making channels.
Drawing on scores of original interviews, readings of court rulings
and statutes, primary archival and digital sources, and
interpretive analysis of news media coverage in Korean, this volume
illuminates rights in action. The chapters uncover conflicts over
contending rights claims, expose disparities between theory and
practice in the law, trace interconnections among rights-based
movements, and map emerging trends in the use of rights language.
Case studies examine the rights of women, workers, people with
disabilities, migrants, and sexual minorities.
