<P>I wish participants in this list would not speak "for the list". I for one find Choi's and Foster-Carter's comments interesting and useful although maybe premature given only an outline of the <U>Korea Journal </U>edition. Some of the article titles suggest a political or emotional content to what presumably is meant as history and that I think is of concern. When I read history, especially of a foreign country, I want to be sure that it is devoid of current politics and accurately reflects the available evidence. I think it is fair to question whether this will be the case in the <U>Korea Journal </U>articles; hopefully they will be. This is not a particularly Korean issue but is true whenever history of a recent past is being revisited. </P>
<DIV></DIV>
<P>Also, the <U>Korea Journal </U>is given in English and the original question relates to translation of a Korean term into English. So clearly this is not a simple "for Koreans only" rendition of their history. I might ask, who is the principal audience of this Journal and why is it published?<BR><BR></P>
