This book, the result of a landmark colloquium held in Korea to
reflect on the role of education in Korean society, provides
fascinating insights into the interplay of political evolution and
pedagogy. Korea has gone from one of the world's poorest societies
after the Korean War to one of its richest, and is a home of
technological innovation; many attribute this 'Korean Miracle' to
the emphasis placed on education in this Confucian society. How did
the Korean state form, and how were educational institutions
created and given legitimacy? During the industrialization period-
roughly, 1961-1994- how did education foster national development?
Lastly, since 1995's May 31 Education Reform, how has the
educational system responded to and created a new information age
in a newly democratic Korea? This book will be of interest to East
Asian scholars, scholars of education, human resources development,
and IT, and historians looking for ways to achieve the 'Korean
Miracle' in their own countries.
