No doubt South Korea‘s neoliberalization has been closely influenced by the ideologies, policies, and experiences of the precedingly neoliberal West, but neoliberal shifts in the South Korean context have most critically conflated with the conditions and structures of its own distinctive developmental political economy and life world. Over nearly four decades of apparent neoliberal transitions, the country is now simultaneously neoliberal, developmental, neoliberally developmental, and developmentally neoliberal. Such complexities and contradictions are systematically analyzed in this transdisciplinary volume written by leading analysts of South Korea and beyond. They exhaustively cover the political, economic, social, and cultural dimensions of South Korea’s neoliberalization in conjunction with its earlier developmental order and latest all-front restructuring.
