O knihe

The book examines the peninsular and international dimensions that led to the emergence of Republic of Korea as an Independent Sovereign State on 15 August 1945. More specifically, this book has sought to reconstruct reappraisal and reformulate the political developments in the Peninsula during the crucial three-year period before the proclamation of the first Republic in the five thousand years history of Korea. It was a truly historic development because of the new Republican State had a written, democratic, constitution which, among other things, unequivocally stated that the Sovereignty rested with the citizens. The need for a reappraisal of the ante State history was felt because of two factors. Firstly, although it is almost five decades since the Republic of Korea and its rival State came into being, the debate on the context and circumstances under which they emerged has never ceased among scholars on contemporary Korea. Secondly, in the last three decades, especially since the latter half of 1970?s, the debate on the emergence of Republic of Korea and its rival State has assumed new dimensions. With the publication of a few seminal books and outstanding research articles based on the declassified and hitherto unpublished or inaccessible mass of materials on the crucial three-year period from the collapse of the colonial order to the proclamation of the State of the Republic of Korea.
