This book sets out a panoramic view of law and society studies in
South Korea, considering the factors that have made this
post-colonial war-torn country economically and politically
successful. The contributors examine societal and historical
conditions that are reflected in - or that were shaped by - the
law, through a variety of lenses; including law and development,
law and politics, colonialism and gender, past wrongdoings, public
interest lawyering, and judicial reform. In dismantling the
historical specificity of the way in which Korea studies are
universally framed the contributions provide novel views, theories
and information about South Korean law and society. Incorporating
various perspectives and methodologies, and demonstrating a finely
crafted application of general theory to specific issues, this
compendium will prove insightful to law scholars and researchers
looking to widen their perspective and broaden their knowledge on
law and society in Korea. Law practitioners whose practice requires
knowledge of the Korean legal system will also find plenty of
information in this authoritative book. Contributors include: K.
