Stanford Summer Workshop on Korea 2005

The Korean Studies Program at the Asia-Pacific Research Center (Shorenstein APARC) in the Stanford Institute for International Studies will host summer workshop on Korea 2005 from June 27-July 1, 2005.

This workshop will focus on the genesis and evolution of globalized mass culture in Korea. Of particular interest will be the conflict engendered in Korea as state authority and conservative elites attempted to control hybrid cultural forms linked to global flows of mass culture.
