The period from 1876 to 1946 in Korea marked a turbulent time when
the country opened its market to foreign powers, became subject to
Japanese colonialism, and was swept into agricultural
commercialization, industrialization, and eventually postcolonial
revolutionary movements. Gi-Wook Shin examines how peasants
responded to these events, and to their own economic and political
circumstances, with protests that shaped the course of postwar
revolution in the north and reform in the south. Utilizing
interviews, documentary research, and statistical analysis, Shin
analyzes variation in peasant activism and its historical,
political, and socioeconomic roots, and offers a major revisionist
interpretation. The study contributes to an understanding of
Korea's rural political economy during the colonial era, Japanese
agricultual policy, and the historical legacy of colonialism for
post war social and political change in Korea.
