Zusammenfassung: | Forty years of rapid industrialization have transformed millions of South Korean peasants and their sons and daughters into urban factory workers. Hagen Koo explores the experiences of this first generation of industrial workers and describes its struggles to improve working conditions in the factory and to search for justice in society. The working class in South Korea was born in a cultural and political environment extremely hostile to its development, Koo says. Korean workers forged their collective identity much more rapidly, however, than did their counterparts in other newly industrialized countries in East Asia. This book investigates how South Korea's once-docile and submissive workers reinvented themselves so quickly into a class with a distinct identity and consciousness. Based on sources ranging from workers' personal writings to union reports to in-depth interviews, this book is a penetrating analysis of the South Korean working-class experience. Koo reveals how culture and politics simultaneously suppressed and facilitated class formation in South Korea. With chapters exploring the roles of women, students, and church organizations in the struggle, the book reflects Koo's broader interest in the social and cultural dimensions of industrial transformation |

Sep 2019) Forty years of rapid industrialization have transformed millions of South Korean peasants and their sons and daughters into urban factory workers. Hagen Koo explores the experiences of this first generation of industrial workers and describes its struggles to improve working conditions in the factory and to search for justice in society. The working class in South Korea was born in a cultural and political environment extremely hostile to its development, Koo says. Korean workers forged their collective identity much more rapidly, however, than did their counterparts in other newly industrialized countries in East Asia. This book investigates how South Korea's once-docile and submissive workers reinvented themselves so quickly into a class with a distinct identity and consciousness. Based on sources ranging from workers' personal writings to union reports to in-depth interviews, this book is a penetrating analysis of the South Korean working-class experience. Koo reveals how culture and politics simultaneously suppressed and facilitated class formation in South Korea. With chapters exploring the roles of women, students, and church organizations in the struggle, the book reflects Koo's broader interest in the social and cultural dimensions of industrial transformation In English Asian Studies Labor History POLITICAL SCIENCE / Labor & Industrial Relations bisacsh Industrial organization Korea Labor disputes Korea Labor movement Korea Working class Korea Arbeitskampf (DE-588)4002702-8 gnd rswk-swf Arbeiter (DE-588)4112560-5 gnd rswk-swf Industrie (DE-588)4026779-9 gnd rswk-swf Arbeiterbewegung (DE-588)4002581-0 gnd rswk-swf Korea (DE-588)4032466-7 gnd rswk-swf Südkorea (DE-588)4078029-6 gnd rswk-swf Korea (DE-588)4032466-7 g Arbeiter (DE-588)4112560-5 s Industrie (DE-588)4026779-9 s 1\p DE-604 Südkorea (DE-588)4078029-6 g 2\p DE-604 Arbeiterbewegung (DE-588)4002581-0 s 3\p DE-604 Arbeitskampf (DE-588)4002702-8 s 4\p DE-604 https://doi.org/10.7591/9781501731778 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
