Should Korean studies (and anyone writing about the country, or any 
other country for that matter) better explain what is happening 
instead of trying to evaluate another country's political culture 
according to middle-class white American rule-sets -- that's really 
how this comes over to me. What did we learn since the missionaries 
and colonialists reported their views in the 19th century. This is 
NOT white-washing anything! It is an issue of how to approach such a 
topic.
