Korean Nationalism Betrayed Joong-Seok Seo [Sungkyunkwan University]. Translated by Han Do-Hyun, Academy of Korean Studies, and Pankaj Mohan University of Sydney (Book #ID 85106) Published by Global Oriental Ltd., Folkestone, Kent First Edition 2007. 2007. First edition hard back binding in publisher's original sea blue cloth covers, gilt title and author lettering to the spine. 8vo. 9'' x 6''. Written by Joong- Seok Seo, an eminent Korean historian and a thinker of rare originality, this book examines the tumultuous history of modern Korea from the perspective of nationalism. Based on the author's extensive research and wide-ranging experience, the book goes to the heart of critical questioning about the political uses and abuses of nationalism by the ruling elites of post-liberation Korea. Indeed, Korean Nationalism Betrayed fills a yawning gap in the Western understanding of the authoritarian political structure of South Korea (1948-1988) that manipulated and distorted nationalism by identifying it with ultra-right anti-communism. The author provides a set of thought-provoking and compelling arguments against the assumptions of the Cold War, attributing the continued climate of tension and antagonism between the two Koreas to the tenacity of a Cold War mind-set. He traces the root of the tragedy of national division to the failure of Korean nationalism, and puts forward a compelling case for overcoming the legacy of polarized ideological stance, based on Cold War ideology and embracing a policy of reconciliation and cooperation by both sides. Contains [xviii] 242 printed pages of text. Fine condition book in Fine condition dust wrapper, unused and unopened new book. We carry this book in stock for immediate dispatch.
