1993-2008期间 韩国农民运动与其对中国的启示 - 以市场开放化和政府信赖危机为中心 -

Occurrence and Development of Korean Farmers’ Movement (1993-2008）and Its Implications to China － Focusing on Market Globalization and Government Trust Crisis －

The aim of this article is to critically explore the history, methods, characteristics and cause mechanism of Korean farmers’ movement who resisted to market globalization from the perspective of social movement theory. I believe that the most influential elements of Korean farmers’ movement are three structural elements; namely resentment, political opportunity structure, and media and discourse. Therefore, focusing on the three elements, I analyze the emergence and expansion of the Korean farmers’ movement against market globalization from 1993 to 2008. And I analyze the roles of these three structural elements which played in farmers’ social movement in South Korea. Particularly, this article analyses in perspective of market globalization and government trust crisis about the basic reason why Korean farmers’ movement was so fierce in process of agricultural market globalization.
