Evolution Korea South Korea's democracy is prone to populist inclinations. However, it's healthier than one would expect. The country is looking for an innovative development paradigm. The Confucian culture, which emphasizes respect for the ancestors as well as gendered family relationships, continues to be influential in the society. However, there are signs that a secularist culture is gaining ground. Origins In the prehistoric era, the ancestors to modern Koreans were able to survive by hunting and gathering wild foods. About 10,000 years ago, they began to cultivate millet, beans and other crops. They also raised livestock and produced furs. They created tribal states in Manchuria, and then on the Korean peninsula. They also created a metalworking industry, producing bronze tools, and later iron tools. They also traded with other countries and introduced block printing to Japan and also styles of art and a written language and papermaking. Gojoseon was founded in 2333 BCE on the southern peninsula. This state embraced Chinese culture, including Confucian Philosophy and Buddhism. During this period the people of Buyeo joined Gojoseon. Gojoseon had a hierarchical structure with a monarch and senior officials were drawn from the landed aristocracy whereas the majority of the population were peasants. The state took taxes from these citizens and sometimes even forced them to serve in the army or to build fortifications. Onjo Prince Onjo, a prince from Goguryeo who was also the son of Jumong who was the founder of Goguryeo, founded the state of Baekje at the end of the period. The new kingdom expanded to the southwest part of the peninsula, and was at war against the Goguryeo commanderies and China's in the area. Baekje incorporated aspects of Confucian thought into its state belief system and made the male-centric concept of filiopiety as a law in 1390 CE. Under the cover of filiopiety fathers were responsible to their families. They must be obeyed by everyone and respected by their grandchildren and children. Goryeo, who ruled from 918 to 1392 CE gave the world the Hangul alphabet based on the shapes made by the mouth when it was pronounced. This dramatically improved the communication between people and led to an explosion in the writing of Buddhist texts. Woodblock printing and movable type were also improved. In 1145 CE the Samguk Sagi or “History of the Three Kingdoms” was first recorded. Development in Korea The Korean peninsula has been habitable since Neolithic times and early evidence of human settlements is evident in the form stone-lined cist graves with precious objects like amazonite jewellery being buried alongside the dead. Megalithic structures, referred to as dolmens, and made of single large stones, are prevalent throughout the country. In the first part of the 1st millennium BCE, Gojoseon established itself as the first recognisable political state. The peninsula was then controlled by a variety of states during the Three Kingdoms Period (57 BC-635 CE) which included Baekje and Goguryeo. Moreover, the northern region of the peninsula was occupied by the Balhae kingdom, which many historians don't consider to be a proper Korean state. After the Three Kingdoms, several smaller states arose in the Proto-Three Kingdoms period, or Several States Period (yeolgugsidae). Among them, Baekje was the most powerful of them all however, its dynasty ended by the fall of Goguryeo in 676 CE and left Baekje with its southern territories of Manchuria and the western region surrounding the Hwanghae Bay, while eastern Buyeo and the Gaya confederacy flourished for a short time. The Unified Silla kingdom then emerged and the three kingdoms began to work together in order to expand their territorial holdings. Silla, with the help of the Chinese, eventually conquered and united the peninsula in 935. As Korea enters the post-crisis era, its development paradigm is in flux. The people who are awed by the huge costs of the old systems are in favor of a comprehensive plan for liberalization of capital, labor and markets for products. On the other hand, supporters of the old system want to keep it in place by leveraging nationalist sentiments and exaggerating fears of job loss. Analysts and academics are divided on the extent to which Korea's development is influenced by these two trends. This article examines the five phases of Korea's evolution in terms of its political development including illiberal democracies (1945-60) democratic autoritarianism (1961-72) authoritarian exceptionalism (1972-1877) democratic paternalism (2001-2002) and democratic participation (2002). This article also identifies the key factors that appear to be driving these developments. Creationism in Korea In South Korea, 26% of the population is Christian. Creationists have made progress in promoting their views to this group. A 2009 survey revealed that nearly a third of respondents did not believe in the theory of evolution. Of those, 41% claimed that there wasn't enough evidence from science to support the theory 39% claimed that the theory did not align with their beliefs; and 17% said it was difficult to grasp. This level of doubt is similar to the United States where a similar percentage do not believe humans evolved from earlier forms of life. In the past, the anti-evolution movement in Korea was primarily focused on the education of students and in bringing Christ to them. A significant rise in the interest in creation science occurred in the year 1980, when there was the inauguration of a four-day seminar during the World Evangelization Crusade in Seoul which featured Drs. 에볼루션 바카라 무료체험 and Duane Gish of ICR as the main speakers. This event attracted a huge number of pastors, professors, church leaders, and scientists. The success of the event resulted in the formation of the Korea Association of Creation Research on January 31st in 1980. The meeting was covered extensively in the national media, including The Korea Times, Chosun Ilbo and The Korea Times. KACR started publishing a newsletter called CREATION. In it, the group reported on its own activities and published articles on scientific evidence supporting creationism. It also translated several slides and film strips from ICR and also some books on creationism that were already published outside of Korea. KACR members also gave talks in churches and universities throughout the country. A KACR success was witnessed at KAIST University in Seoul. Students at the KAIST university in Seoul were so keen on the concept of creationism that they raised funds and received funding to build a small creationist museum on campus. In addition to its public activities, KACR publishes a bimonthly news magazine, CREATION, that covers topics related to creation science. It also sponsored a series of lectures by ICR staff. It has also created branches in local offices that offer talks and seminars to children and community groups. Changes in South Korea In the late nineteenth century and into the early twentieth century, Korea began to adopt a more Westernized lifestyle. The hanbok, the traditional Korean dress, gave way to miniskirts and other style elements from abroad. Similarly, traditional Korean music styles were replaced by modern jazz and rock and roll. In this time the famous samulnori, also known as the masked dance-dramas were very popular. These dramatic pieces were performed with the accompaniment of shaman drums and various musical instruments. Korea's new development model is being formed in the wake of the economic crisis. The main challenge for the new regime is the balance between the state-led economic policies and market-based ones. It also requires a change in the incentives monitoring and discipline strategies that have shaped the system before the crisis. These issues are covered in Chapters 3 and 4. The Baekje was founded by Onjo, prince of Goguryeo and the third son of Jumong, Baekje was established jointly by people living along the Hangang River, those from Buyeo and other areas and people from northern China. Baekje was an important regional power in the early 4th Century expanded its territory to Mahan in north and Jeollanam-do south. This meant that it was constantly in conflict with Goguryeo and the Chinese commanderies on the border. The decline of Silla in the 8th and early 9th centuries allowed powerful local factions to rise. Gungye, a noble from Later Baekje, established a kingdom with Songak as its capital. It also held control over a portion of the present-day Jeolla and Chungcheong provinces. Then, he moved the capital to Wansanju and became a rival of Goguryeo. The rule of his was, however, short-lived. Wang Geon, a powerful local leader who defeated Gungye in 935 and united Goryeo, Baekje, and Silla Later, he incorporated Baekje into Goryeo without a fight as his successor. Wang Geon also introduced fundamental reforms and strengthened the centralized ruling system. This marked the conclusion of the Three Kingdoms period. From then on, the Korean peninsula was controlled by the Goryeo Dynasty. During the Three Kingdoms Period, Goguryeo Baekje Silla gradually grew into powerful states on the peninsula as well as in Manchuria.
