Journal Title: International Journal of Korean History - Year 2003, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
The study of Korean history has made significant developments over the last fifty years in Korea, receiving more attention than other academic fields. This may be a natural phenomenon in that it directly concerns the study of her own nation and people. At the same time, it has experienced several upheavals during this period, and many more issues wait to be resolved in the future. Summarizing all the trends and achievements in the field of Korean history over the last fifty years is no simple matter. 1 It certainly has experienced the same kinds of turmoil that Korea went through. Despite this, there has been significant works done in various fields related to Korean history, and in every decade. A detailed analysis of the results of such works will make it clear that a general reorganization of modern Korean history should be undertaken.
