  • K-Wave Experience in Turkey Dr
    AUTHOR Buket Yildiz - 1200208 SUPERVISOR K-Wave experience in Turkey Dr. L.O. Black Handling subjugation in a patriarchal DATE society 7th July 2017 MAIR THESIS Abstract Informed by ethnographic research the purpose of this study is to examine the attitudes of Turkish women who consume Korean popular culture with regards to their identity formation and how it relates to the possible transformation of Turkish patriarchal society. The argument made in this study is that people in the K-Wave community have a skewed interpretation of South Korea, because of their admiration of the country through the K-Wave they are exposed to, but that this misconception has an impact on their resistance against patriarchy in their own country. This study argues that it is a two-edged sword: on the one hand K-Wave reinforces patriarchy through the messages it conveys, on the other hand it creates an imaginary space to which women can escape from their daily lives and encourages them to resist the socially defined masculine domination. 2 Contents 1.

I have the greatest respect for Arthur Kleinman for his academic rigorousness. His classes were intellectually insightful and resolute with political engagement.

  • Comparative Analysis of Women's Military Participation in East Asia
    Comparative Analysis of Women’s Military Participation in East Asia By Lana Obradovic Within political science where East Asia seems to be the scholarly flavour of the day, Western military analysts continue to focus their research on traditional, realist concerns such as military spending, technological advancement, and the North Korean threat, with little or no mention of the recent gender integration policies of the military services in the region. When the world’s largest all-female formation in military parade history – 378 Chinese women soldiers of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) – made its debut by goose-stepping past the Tian’anmen Rostrum during the 60th anniversary of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) on October 1st, 2009, most observers noted their presence by describing the female soldiers’ short hot pink skirts and knee-high leather boots : communist-realist kitsch reigned supreme. None thought of mentioning that the Chinese military has the same number of women as the US. Similarly, colourful images of dancing and sword-yielding servicewomen’s performances in North Korea overshadow the reports that females comprise up to 22 percent of the country’s total military force levels, that they guard every tunnel and bridge, or that most of the artillery units along the North Korean coast are made up of women.1 Nor does the reverse situation in neighbouring democracies raise any eyebrows. Despite extensive reforms and almost full integration, surprisingly low percentages of women in the Self-Defence Forces (SDF) of Japan (5.4%) and South Korea’s armed forces (4%) hardly even earn a footnote in most Western scholarly works.

INTRODUCTION 1.1. Mastercard Index of Women Entrepreneurs 2019 Summary Now in its third year, the annual Mastercard Index of Women in Entrepreneurs (MIWE) continues to provide invaluable insights into the progress and achievements of women in business. Despite many challenges, female entrepreneurs are opening successful businesses faster than ever before, and MIWE brings to the forefront the broad set of variables propelling this dynamism, globally. This year’s report is a tale of two halves. At one end, it reaffirms the idea of opportunity‐driven entrepreneurial activity; where high‐income, advanced economies, with open and vibrant markets that support SMEs and ease of doing business, such as the US, New Zealand, Canada, Australia, Ireland, Switzerland and Singapore provide highly conducive and enabling conditions that helps fuel women as business owners.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Set in Bronze: Examining the Women’s Movements and Politics of Comfort Women Memorialization A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in Anthropology by Kelsey Cristina Kim 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS Set in Bronze Examining the Women’s Movements and Politics of Comfort Women Memorialization by Kelsey Cristina Kim Master of Arts in Anthropology University of California, Los Angeles 2018 Professor Kyeyoung Park, Chair Apologies and reparations for comfort women, or sex slaves for the Imperial Japanese Army during World War II, are a contentious issue between the survivors, their supporters, and the Japanese government. After decades of silence, many surviving comfort women have publicly come forward to demand justice—yet the Japanese government has continued to deny responsibility. In response, comfort women supporters and activists have created public memorials throughout the world, particularly in the US. These memorials have caused Japanese diplomatic intervention and demands for removal, sparking a battle for recognition in the public sphere. In this thesis I explore the comfort women movement and the controversy surrounding the memorials, reexamining these memorials as a form of recognition, reparations and reconciliation. ii The thesis of Kelsey Cristina Kim is approved.

  • Building Your Résumé to Be the Ultimate Bride
    Building Your Résumé 195 BUILDING YOUR RÉSUMÉ TO BE THE ULTIMATE BRIDE South Korean Women’s Contradictory Identity in a Hyper-Instrumentalized Society By Yunhee Roh apid modernization in South Korea, the product of industrialization and democratization in the 1970s and 1980s, has helped Korean women to gain higher socio-economic statuses. However, the daughters of the 1970s and 1980s generation who either went to one of the Rtop universities have professional careers, or both still pursue marriage as their ultimate life goal. My research question asks: why do upper middle class South Korean women, who are aware of the “second shift” and other forms of marital inequality, still actively resort to marriage as their comple- tion of life achievement despite opportunities for self-actualization through careers? Drawing from twenty-nine in-depth interviews of South Korean women born in the 1980s and 1990s, I argue that in the construction of South Korean modernity, a compressed process within the 1970s and 1980s, South Korea is currently a hyper-instrumentalized society where women are actively modernizing themselves to be traditional. As South Korean women interact with a fast-paced political economy, marriage incorporates a process of résumé building through higher education and the job market. My findings reveal that South Korean marriage is even regarded as a career in itself. As a result, we must reconsider the role of ideals such as self-actualization, which are typically assumed in narra- tives of modernization. By contextualizing the South Korean women in a larger history, we must also consider the desire for entering a successful marriage as part of the changing sociology that drives them to pursue higher education and prominent job opportunities.

  • Troll Feminism: the Rise of Popular Feminism in South Korea
    Troll Feminism: The Rise of Popular Feminism in South Korea Euisol Jeong PhD University of York Women’s Studies September 2020 Abstract This dissertation explores a new form of feminist movement in South Korea that has emerged online. The movement, which I refer to as the ‘Megalia phenomenon’, was catalysed by ‘man-hating trolling’ in 2015, which distinguishes this new digital feminism from extant feminist movements. The dissertation interrogates how South Korean digital practices have shaped a specific form of popular feminism – which I term ‘troll feminism’. In this dissertation, I ask: how the digital venues on the South Korean web have interacted and intertwined with the Megalia phenomenon; how Megalian trolls devised their activist practices based on the digital habits; and how Megalians’ digital discourses were materialised through forms of practical activism. I trace how the participants in the Megalian movement appropriated the practices of online misogynists (such as aggressive and offensive trolling acts) in order to respond to prevalent online misogyny, which led them to develop a feminist movement. The fun entailed in trolling altered how people ‘do’ feminism in this movement, making participants experience it as game playing, hence ‘gamifying’ the activism. As the activism of ‘chasing fun’ through ‘man-hating’ enabled many women to question the gendered reality of their world, the politics of trolling provided a feminist critique of South Korean society that made women’s lives intelligible and made social oppression recognisable, resulting in their involvement in political resistance. I analyse the materialist orientation of feminist politics in the Megalian movement, arguing that its inclination to prioritise what is actual and material, practical and pragmatic derives from Megalians’ nature as digital users, and as gamers, who seek out direct and immediate reactions to their actions – which they experience as ‘triumphs’ in the gender war they are involved in.
