Current status of each field in the Korean publishing market ⑧ Publication of practical books for social activities 2020.09.07 Among practical books that provide knowledge and information useful for daily life, those excluding “practical books for home” including areas such as child nurturing, cooking, healthcare, and hobbies were categorized as “practical books for social activities.” From the broader perspective, this category can include several publication genres such as economy & business administration (K-Book Trends Vol. 22), self-development (K-Book Trends Vol. 24), and others useful for carrying out social activities.

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.
