摘要:In the field of Korean gender studies,there have been a few edited volumes or special issues of journals that center on gender as the key category of analysis. Works such as Dangerous Women: Gender and Korean Nationalism (Kim and Choi 1998),Under Construction: The Gendering of Modernity,Class,and Consumption in the Republic of Korea (Kendall 2002),and a special issue of the Journal of Korean Studies titled “Gender and Politics in Contemporary Korea” (Han 2014) have offered incisive analyses of gendered phenomena in modern and contemporary Korea. Each collective work offers a critical intervention into the discourses of nationalism,modernity,political economy,and material cultures.
