Colonial modernity in Korea

"The study of Korea during the colonial period (1910-45) has long been dominated by the nationalist paradigms of Japanese imperialist repression versus Korean nationalist resistance, colonial exploitation versus national development, and Japanese culture versus Korean culture. The twelve chapters in this volume seek to overcome the limitations of these binaries by adopting a more inclusive, pluralistic approach that stresses the complex relations among colonialism, modernity, and nationalism and sees them not as opposites but as a mutually reinforcing web of relations that continues to influence Korea today."--BOOK JACKET.
