Course Description:
This course examines the structural, historical, and institutional dimensions of social inequality in South Korea from a sociological perspective. The course begins with a central paradox: although South Korea is a highly advanced economy with a strong public commitment to fairness, inequality remains deeply embedded and is often publicly rationalized.
Through theoretical inquiry and empirical analysis, students develop a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms that produce and reproduce inequality, the lived experiences of those affected, and the policy challenges associated with addressing inequality in contemporary Korea.
