Western-Centrism and Contemporary Korean Political Thought
Kang, Jung In
This book is an outgrowth of critical examination of Western political
theory embedded in Western-centrism and the tumultuous ideational
processes by which contemporary Korean political theory and reality have
intensely interacted (both in convergent and divergent ways) with it.
To conduct such examination the book addresses complex and variegated
questions regarding Western-centrism: What is Western-centrism? How is
Western-centrism to be compared and contrasted with other forms of
centrism such as Sinocentrism, capitalism (bourgeois-centrism),
patriarchy (male-centrism), and racism (white-centrism)? How has
Western-centrism evolved in world history and in the history of Western
political thought? How has Western-centrism shaped the evolution of
contemporary Korean political thought? What kinds of ill effects has
Western-centrism brought about in Korean society and academia? And,
ultimately, how can Western-centrism be overcome?
