13 UN Declaration on Human Rights Whereas disregard and contempt for human rights have resulted in barbarous acts which have outraged the conscience of mankind, and the advent of a world in which human beings shall enjoy freedom of speech and belief and freedom from fear and want has been proclaimed as the highest aspiration of the common people, Whereas it is essential, if man is not to be compelled to have recourse, as a last resort, to rebellion against tyranny and oppression, that human rights should be protected by the rule of law

30 Authoritarianism and Park Chung-hee : Democratic façade. Regionalism. Opposition? Economic development.

31 Seoul, 1950s

32 1950s Dongdaemun

33 Modern Dongdaemun

34 Korea s Miracle on the Han. Government of Syngman Rhee ( ), deeply corrupt, dependent on US aid. 1965, Normalization Treaty with Japan.

35

36

37 Park s Authoritarian Capitalism ( ) Manchurian model of government ( Capitalist paradise ). Workers 2.5x more productive, 1/10 wages. Steel equals national power. Strong State, social engineering. State gives favourable loans (Chaebol). Financial manipulation. Vietnam War boom. Export oriented economy. 3 decades of 8% growth. Verdict: neo-fascist? mercantilist?, Korean democratization?.

52 Part Two TRANSITIONAL JUSTICE AND POST-COLD WAR MEMORY

53 Transitional Justice? As societies transition or liberalize, there is a reckoning and rejection of a dark past. Contested shift in moral and epistemic norms about the past. History and law intertwined. Present, past, future contested. Victor s justice? Power? Who gets to speak and why?

54 Redress? Remedy or compensation for specific grievance. Alternative models? What is restitution? What constitutes forgiveness or redress? (we don t know). Lack of resolution as a necessarily condition.

55 Time? Memories shift over time. What is said or remembered about the past is reflection of socio/political conditions in the present. Redress shapes historical memory.

56 Transitional Justice in South Korea ATROCITIES, CIVIL SOCIETY, AND ANTICOMMUNISM

57 South Korea s politicide : minimum of 200,000 leftists killed. Politicide: the promotion, execution, and/or implied consent of sustained policies by governing elites or their agents or, in the case of civil war, either of the contending authorities that are intended to destroy, in whole or part, a communal, political, or politicized ethnic group.

58 State authorized mass killings. South Korea s politicide Consolidation of the state, and ideological identity. Negative Integration. Jeju Massacre, National Guidance League Incident, Geochang Incident.

59 Jeju Massacre

60 National Guidance League Killings

61 1951 Geochang Incident February 1951, Sinwŏn. Four day killing spree, 716 unarmed civilians. Politicized killing. Desecration of corpses.

62 Immediate Aftermath of Geochang Made public, internationalized. Initial investigations launched, stymied. 187 communists officially registered, illegal execution. Victims omitted from trial and media. 3 convictions, all pardoned by President Rhee.

63 Crises over mourning Initial prohibitions. 1954, right to perform mortuary services. Collective grave. Bereaved Family identity. 1960, Rhee government collapses. Revenge killing? Yujokhoe form. Attempts at solidarity, but divisions exist. Mass repression in 1961.

64 Democratization and Transitional justice : Dark history. 1989: Geochang Bereaved Family Association forms. Explicitly anticommunist. Special acts to investigated Kwangju, Geochang, Jeju. 2005, TRCK established, publishes report in 2010.

65 Truth and Reconciliation? Structurally hampered. Global ideology of transitional justice. Fragmentation of victims groups. Human rights ideology, depoliticized. Perpetrator/victim binary. Clarification as closure? Alternative pasts?

66 Monumental Conflicts in South Korea

67 South Korea s Peace Parks Local context: part of transitional justice, honour restoration. Global network of dark tourism.

68 Jeju 4.3 Peace Park Layout

69 Politics of Reclamation: Geoch ang

70 Politics of Reclamation: Jeju

71 Politics of Reclamation: Jeju

72 Critiquing the State: Geoch ang

73 Soldier Valourization

74 Critiquing State Hegemony: Jeju

75 Critiquing State Hegemony: Jeju

76 Silences and their Meaning Little Reference to each other in Sites Struggles over Memory Portrayed in Isolation National Guidance League Incident and other Examples of Systematic Nation-wide Slaughter Absent

77 Silences and their Meaning

78 National Guidance League Incident

79 Silences and their Meaning

80 Politics of Reclamation: Jeju

81 Conclusions Honour restored and view of state as guardian subverted. Parks preserve binaries of anticommunist discourse. Victims absorbed into national narrative. Embedded silences in local/victims narratives. Violence portrayed as episodic, not systematic. Violent origins of anticommunist state creation remain obscured. Ideology of Cold War no longer explicit, but still textures collective memory.
