  • 1 Talking Points: Korean Politics in Transition from Populist Welfare Democracy to Liberal Welfare Democracy Byung-Joon Ahn
    Talking Points: Korean Politics in Transition from Populist Welfare Democracy to Liberal Welfare Democracy Byung-joon Ahn, Visiting Professor of International Relations at the KDI School of Public Policy and Management I. Korean Politics after the 2012 Presidential Election. Judging from the political development emerging after the 18th presidential election in December 2012 in which Park Geun-hye was elected as president, the overall direction of the post-election political struggles between the ruling Saenuri Party and the opposition seems to be in transition from a populist welfare democracy so characteristic of the presidential campaigns to some new type of liberal welfare democracy. During the campaigns the views of the candidates, Ms. Park and Mr. Moon Jae-in were converging on major economic, security and especially welfare issues but this convergence has begun to crack when President Park began to scale down from her over-extended campaign promises on welfare for providing a basic pension to all senior citizens along with such other benefits as free meals to school children, and medical subsidies to the critically ill. The opposition is crying wolf by attacking her turn-around as a complete “throwing away” of her campaign commitments. Even now, both the ruling party and the opposition do share their common view on the needs for expanding welfare and growth but they differ on the priority and the methods of actually realizing these two desirable goals. By and large, the opposition tends to defend a populist welfare democracy whereas President Park appears to advocate a liberal welfare democracy. By “populist welfare democracy,” I mean a type of democracy in which leaders prioritize social welfare more than economic growth even with state subsidies by mobilizing popular supports from the common people in order to accommodate their rising demands.
