  • Appropriation of Religion: the Re-Formation of the Korean Notion of Religion in Global Society
    Appropriation of Religion: The Re-formation of the Korean Notion of Religion in Global Society Kyuhoon Cho Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Religious Studies Department of Classics & Religious Studies Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © Kyuhoon Cho, Ottawa, Canada, 2013 ABSTRACTS Appropriation of Religion: The Re-formation of the Korean Notion of Religion in Global Society By Kyuhoon Cho Doctor of Philosophy in Religious Studies, University of Ottawa, Canada Dr. Peter F. Beyer, Supervisor Dr. Lori G. Beaman, Co-supervisor This dissertation explores the reconfiguration of religion in modern global society with a focus on Koreans’ use of the category of religion. Using textual and structural analysis, this study examines how the notion of religion is structurally and semantically contextualized in the public sphere of modern Korea. I scrutinize the operation of the differentiated communication systems that produces a variety of discourses and imaginaries on religion and religions in modern Korea. Rather than narrowly define religion in terms of the consequence of religious or scientific projects, this dissertation shows the process in which the evolving societal systems such as politics, law, education, and mass media determine and re-determine what counts as religion in the emergence of a globalized Korea. I argue that, ever since the Western notion of religion was introduced to East Asia in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, religion was, unlike in China and Japan, constructed as a positive social component in Korea, because it was considered to be instrumental in maintaining Korean identity and modernizing the Korean nation in the new global context.
