308pp. The author describes the economic and ecological organization of rural Korean domestic groups and Korea's rapid industrialization. While there have been many books written about Korean political conditions or economic development, scholars have often been at a loss to say precisely what is going on the in the countryside or to explain rural political or economic behavior. This book is the most up to date (1988) study on Korean village life. Bound in black cloth, spine lettering gilt, a fine copy in fine pictorial dust jacket.
