<P><FONT face=Arial>The autumn 2005 issue of the Korea Journal explores how the IMF crisis influenced the Korean value system, focusing mainly on the family, work, consumption and leisure, sexuality, and political consciousness. While, until now, discussion of the IMF crisis has mainly been approached from an economic perspective, this issue of Korea Jouranl tried to understand how the economic crisis is related with social change in Korea during and after the late 1990s. Related with gender issue, especially, Cho Joo-hyun attepmted to show sexuality of Korean women has been constructed and reconstructed during and after the IMF crisis through lesbian movement, the emergence of cyberporn, and legislation of the new anti-prostitution act.<BR>The authors and titles of articles are as follows:</FONT></P>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dear List: </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We have an anthropologist doing a course on "Engendering East Asian Miracles" at IU this semester. She would like to bring the IMF crisis in SK as well as the recent Hong Kong protests into some perspective. Thus, She is looking for a piece on Korean Masculinity and the IMF Crisis. There is of course the Seungsook Moon piece in Under Construction, but I seem to think I saw something on gender and the IMF crisis publsihed recently. Can anyone help me? </FONT></DIV>
