Current status of each field in the Korean publishing market ④ Social Science Publications

Current status of each field in the Korean publishing market ④ Social Science Publications   2020.05.04     The 1980s were the golden age for social science publications in the Korean publishing industry. Under the ruling of the new military dictatorship, it was social science books and their readers that took the lead in the overall social transformation through intense democratic and labor movements. The books were the texts of social movement and transformation. Bookstores specialized in social science books, though most of them cannot be found today, thrived next to colleges across the nation. With the “announcement of democratization” in 1987, Seoul Olympics in 1988, and the establishment of a civilian government in 1993, Korea has been pursuing cultural diversity amidst the paradigm shifts of political democratization, globalization, and becoming an information society, positioning itself as a responsible member of the international community.

Current status of each field in the Korean publishing market ② History Publication

Current status of each field in the Korean publishing market ② History Publication   2020.03.02     The publication industry is “a mirror called record” that reflects the society. The publication of history-related books that are the archive of time and space connecting the past and the present is a clear indicator that shows Korean society’s interest in history. By looking at the published titles, best seller trends, and newly emerging trends, you can see where the current publishing market is and where the intellectual desire of readers is heading to.Historically, Korea has undergone long turbulent generations due to its geopolitical location in East Asia and invasions by surrounding powers. Until World War II in which liberalization was the greatest task, ethnic identity was very strong, and during the Cold War, a historical awareness that the two Koreas should overcome division and pursue reunification settled down.According to the statistics of the Korean Publi...
