[KS] (online) Friday, 6/14. "Anti-Communism in South Korea"

[Henry Em]

Dear colleagues,

On Friday, June 14, I hope you will join us online for this Workshop hosted
by the *Korea Journal* and the Academy of Korean Studies.
(Sorry, in-person participation is restricted to invitees.)

Six contributors to *Korea Journal*’s Summer, 2025 special issue on
“Anti-Communism, National Security Law, and Thought Control in South Korea”
will present their working drafts for comments from, and discussion among,
workshop participants.

*Session I. (10:10 am - 12:15 pm) Anti-Communism as Visuality and Narrative*

Session I will be conducted mostly in English. With presentations by *Sandra
Park*, *Thomas Ryan*, and* Ted Hughes*, the papers examine some of the
creative (myth-making) and ambivalent (counter-state) aspects of
anti-communism in Post-Korean War South Korea.

*Session II. (1:30 pm – 3:45 pm) Anti-Communism as State Violence*

Session II will be conducted mostly in Korean. With presentations by *Jung
Keun-sik*, *Kim Dong-Choon*, and *Oh Dong-Suk*, the papers examine the
colonial period antecedents and the post-colonial afterlives of forced
political conversion, censorship, and the National Security Law in South
Korea.
