{"product_id":"the-history-of-conflicts-and-key-ray-chong-9781722425678","title":"The History of Conflicts and Divisions: A Reinterpretation of Korean Political History","description":"Mainstream Korean historians in general are reluctant to reveal the dark side of the Korean history, which, they believe, will undermine nationalistic values such as national sovereignty, national integration, and national pride. Some of them have even distorted unpalatable historical truths under the pretext of promoting national pride. In much the same way, mainstream Korean political scientists have often obscured, ignored, or denied the fact that Korean political history was riddled with conflicts and divisions among the ruling elite. They have thus made no serious attempt to interpret Korean political history from the perspective of conflict and division. However, it is necessary to interpret Korean political history from that perspective to rightly understand the divisive Korean political culture that has been changed little ever since the ancient Three Korean Kingdoms period. This book about Korean political history is the first one written from the perspective of conflict and division among the Korean ruling elite.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Key-Ray Chong,Chin-Woo Kim\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1722425679\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781722425678\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/10\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 282\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 8.00w x 0.59d","brand":"Key-Ray Chong","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48436987494655,"sku":"9781722425678","price":17.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_90d01688-89bb-4799-a8b8-5f69553984b8.jpg?v=1777159111","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-history-of-conflicts-and-key-ray-chong-9781722425678","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
