"Echoes of the Past, Epics of Dissent," the story of a South Korean
social movement, offers a window to a decade of tumultuous social
protest in a postcolonial, divided nation. Abelmann brings a
dramatic chapter of modern Korean history to life--a period in
which farmers, student activists, and organizers joined to protest
the corporate ownership of tenant plots never distributed in the
1949 Land Reform.
From public sites of protest to backstage meetings and
negotiations, from farming villages to university campuses,
Abelmann's highly original study explores this movement as a
complex process always in the making. Her discussion moves fluently
between past and present, local and national, elites and dominated,
and urban and rural. Touching on major historical issues, this
ethnography of dissent explores contemporary popular nationalism
and historical consciousness.
