This book explores the evolution of social movements in South Korea by focusing on how they have become institutionalized and diffused in the democratic period. The contributors explore the transformation of Korean social movements from the democracy campaigns of the 1970s and 1980s to the rise of civil society struggles after 1987. South Korea was ruled by successive authoritarian regimes from 1948 to 1987 when the government decided to re-establish direct presidential elections. The book contends that the transition to a democratic government was motivated, in part, by the pressure from social movement groups that fought the state to bring about such democracy. After the transition, however, the movement groups found themselves in a qualitatively different political context which in turn galvanized the evolution of the social movement sector. Including an impressive array of case studies ranging from the women's movement, to environmental NGOs, and from cultural production to law, the contributors to this book enrich our understanding of the democratization process in Korea, and show that the social movement sector remains an important player in Korean politics today. This book will appeal to students and scholars of Korean studies, Asian politics, political history and social movements.

1970s South Korea is characterized by many as the "dark age for democracy." Most scholarship on South Korea's democracy movement and civil society has focused on the "student revolution" in 1960 and the large protest cycles in the 1980s which were followed by Korea's transition to democracy in 1987. But in his groundbreaking work of political and social history of 1970s South Korea, Paul Chang highlights the importance of understanding the emergence and evolution of the democracy movement in this oft-ignored decade. Protest Dialectics journeys back to 1970s South Korea and provides readers with an in-depth understanding of the numerous events in the 1970s that laid the groundwork for the 1980s democracy movement and the formation of civil society today. Chang shows how the narrative of the 1970s as democracy's "dark age" obfuscates the important material and discursive developments that became the foundations for the movement in the 1980s which, in turn, paved the way for the institutionalization of civil society after transition in 1987. To correct for these oversights in the literature and to better understand the origins of South Korea's vibrant social movement sector this book presents a comprehensive analysis of the emergence and evolution of the democracy movement in the 1970s.

This volume includes a series ofprotocols focused on mitotic spindle assembly and function. The methods coveredin this book feature a broad range of techniques from basic microscopy to thestudy of spindle physiologies relevant to cancer. These methods can be appliedto diverse model systems that range from the cell-free Xenopus eggextract system to the moss Physcomitrella patens, in an effort todemonstrate the key contributions made by researchers using multiple modelorganisms. Chapters in The Mitotic Spindle: Methods and Protocols integrate cutting-edge technologies that have only become available due to thecross-disciplinary efforts, such as ATP analogue sensitive inhibition ofmitotic kinases. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biologyseries format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics,lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readilyreproducible laboratory protocols, and tips ontroubleshooting and avoidingknown pitfalls.Thorough and informative, TheMitotic Spindle: Methods and Protocols, is a valuable resource forresearchers who are new to mitosis or are already experts in the field.
