Korean social problems.\u003cbr\u003e A sharp diagnosis of Koreans' cultural isolation and complexes, which prevent them from adapting to the era of globalization.\u003cbr\u003e The origins and

unexpected IMF typhoon that struck us in late 1997 brought us the shock of unprecedented mass layoffs, unemployment, and a chain of bankruptcies among small and medium-sized enterprises. \u003cbr\u003eThe media and the intellectual class were unanimous in denouncing the structural ills of Korean society, saying that the nation's survival depended on the crisis.\u003cbr\u003e However, without even a thorough diagnosis of the problems in our society, self-reflection, or concrete solutions, it soon became quiet as if nothing had happened.\u003cbr\u003e And so the crisis was forgotten once again, leaving behind only empty slogans and self-praise, such as “a great nation that overcomes adversity” and “a nation that can do it.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e We overcame national crises in the same way during the Japan-Korea Annexation Treaty of 1910 and the Korean War in 1950.\u003cbr\u003e In the midst of resignation, self-rationalization, division, and fighting, the problem was gradually diluted, and the 'poor people' who were actually suffering were played by the politicians' games and kept repeating to themselves, \"This isn't right.\" \u003cbr\u003eNo one has seriously considered the nature of the recurring crisis that comes every 50 years.\u003cbr\u003e This book dares to speak to the essence of that crisis.\u003cbr\u003e The gist of this book is very simple.\u003cbr\u003e At the heart of Korean social problems lies the Confucian ideology represented by Confucius.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Why Confucius, of all people? Who today honors and speaks of Confucius? Some might ask, isn't this an anachronistic claim, valid only for a small number of Confucian scholars or the residents of Cheonghak-dong?\u003cbr\u003e However, even if a person knows nothing about Confucius and has no interest in him, since he was born and raised in Korea, he is thoroughly brainwashed to the bone with Confucian ideology.\u003cbr\u003e Take a look around.\u003cbr\u003e You will come to realize that, without exception, the shadow of Confucius and Confucianism lies behind the serious problems of Korean society.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cul\u003e  \u003cli\u003eYou can preview some of the book's contents.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cspan\u003ePreview\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003ch5\u003e \u003cb\u003eindex\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cb\u003e1 Ten Hardships of Living as a Korean\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Now the map is torn-19\u003cbr\u003e I hate Shinto-27\u003cbr\u003e A Country Ruined by a Glass of Alcohol - 34\u003cbr\u003e If you feel wronged, get promoted - 39\u003cbr\u003e Why the Rule of Law Doesn't Work - 46\u003cbr\u003e It's all about bloodlines! -50\u003cbr\u003e A country where everyone is a royal descendant - 55\u003cbr\u003e Why did Chan-ho and Seri go to America? -63\u003cbr\u003e The DNA of the Three Kims: 'Geosigi' and 'Chara' - 71\u003cbr\u003e What Makes Us Korean? - 83\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e2.

Is it because they believe that whatever happens to their children's bloodlines, as long as their own remains pure, they care?\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003ePerhaps it is only natural that we, who still cannot shake off the foolish notion that everyone except the descendants of some seed or sect is not even human, are being pushed out and eliminated in the globalized era where we must accept other countries and cultures without any resistance.\u003cbr\u003e Now that the discourse of globalization has become commonplace, nationalism has become an embarrassing topic.\u003cbr\u003e Moreover, our bloodline culture, which cannot escape from the bloodline-based thinking that can be seen as a lower-class sentiment rather than nationalism, is utterly shameful to us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The frog-in-a-well, blind-eye, and scheming practices that run counter to the universal trends and order of the world, carried out in the name of patriotism, are still rampant.\u003cbr\u003e Being so obsessed with our own things, our bloodline, our nation, is nothing more than a reflection of an excessive sense of victimization and a complex. \u003cbr\u003eLike Westerners' Orientalism, we also have a tendency to interpret and beautify history in a self-serving manner, and this can be seen as a manifestation of our pride in trying to cover up our poor history with pretense.\u003cbr\u003e Behind this cultural complex lie the painful twists and turns of our modern and contemporary history, including the authoritarian rule of the long-standing military dictatorship, the anti-communist ideology that became entrenched after liberation and the Korean War, and the colonial rule of Japan.\u003cbr\u003e However, if we trace back its origins further, there is Joseon's Confucianism, Confucianism, Zhu Xi, and Confucius.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Now is the time to change our attitude toward cultural coexistence.\u003cbr\u003e No, it may have already passed.\u003cbr\u003e It is time to secure our identity not as Koreans, but as human beings. \u003cbr\u003eThe more we cling to our 'national identity', which may not be able to guarantee a humane life, the more unhappy we may become.\u003cbr\u003e Rather, when we open our doors with an open mind and a flexible attitude and can coexist with other cultures, 'ours' will gain its own space to survive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eConfucianism: A History of Concealment and Distortion\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Tracing back to the origins of Confucianism, we see how it concealed and distorted the truth, and how it forced us to mistakenly pursue the values ​​of fabricated and fabricated fictions as truth.\u003cbr\u003e The facts learned through the recently discovered oracle bone inscriptions of the 『Shangshu』 are summarized as follows.\u003cbr\u003e In ancient Yin Dynasty, there was a man named Jo Gap who drove out his older brother and usurped the throne. \u003cbr\u003eAs a means of justifying the power he has acquired, Jo Gap deifies his ancestors and rewrites the genealogy accordingly.\u003cbr\u003e Even after the fall of the Yin Dynasty and the rise of the Zhou Dynasty, the Confucian class that performed ancestral rites survived and came up with ideas to perpetuate the rule of the rulers.\u003cbr\u003e One of the descendants of that class was Confucius.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Confucius distorts the facts about Jo Gap's coup.\u003cbr\u003e Confucius, who was the editor of the current ??Shangshu (Book of Documents)??, absurdly states that Zhao Jia did not usurp the throne, but rather inherited it rightfully.\u003cbr\u003e The only records of ancient history were distorted by Confucius's naive(?) intention to hide unpleasant facts and idealize the past.\u003cbr\u003e 『Shangshu』 has been a textbook for those taking the civil service examination since ancient times. \u003cbr\u003eIt is only natural that the elites, who were forced to understand the state and administration through distorted literature, could not have the eyes and mind to correctly perceive the phenomenon.\u003cbr\u003e While they pretended to tremble with the most moral values ​​on the surface, they were actually learning lies, distortions, and dirty compromises from the most important texts of Confucianism.\u003cbr\u003e And these facts would never have been known if it had not been for the discovery of the oracle bone script, which was buried underground and fortunately escaped the distortion and manipulation of Confucian fundamentalists.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Confucius not only presented the fictional values ​​that existed in the past, but also urged his disciples to actively pursue them.\u003cbr\u003e In their search for meaning that essentially did not exist, Confucius's disciples had to delve into the past, distorting and embellishing all historical facts according to that fictitious order. \u003cbr\u003eAnd then they found themselves caught in the net of the past.\u003cbr\u003e Now, the 'past' has become not a past in time, but a very 'dangerous past' in terms of values ​​that determines the meaning of life.\u003cbr\u003e In this respect, Confucius was not only the teacher of Eastern society, but also the person who dragged the entire Eastern society into lies and distortion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e These Confucian ideas were established as the ruling ideology of the state by Dong Zhongshu, and then became a universal cosmology and an inviolable absolute truth by Zhu Xi.\u003cbr\u003e However, as can be seen through the 500-year history of the Joseon Dynasty, morality and cosmology are all nonsense.\u003cbr\u003e It was just a mask anyway.\u003cbr\u003e Scholars were only focused on eliminating their political enemies through it.\u003cbr\u003e Since it was an absurd logic anyway, there was no way it could come to a conclusion. \u003cbr\u003eIt was a seed that had been conceived since the time when Jo Gap of the Yin Dynasty enlisted his ancestors for his own political advancement.\u003cbr\u003e This vicious fight, which would drive the enemy to their deaths, was as if foreshadowed from the beginning.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eSome Reasons to Abandon Confucianism\u003cbr\u003e Confucian culture is a culture of looking back.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e As soon as the IMF crisis broke out, the Park Chung-hee syndrome spread throughout society.\u003cbr\u003e It was a moment when the obsession with the past, with the \"long live the old days\" and the \"learning from the past to learn from the new\" that permeates our society, was once again clearly revealed.\u003cbr\u003e Koreans are particularly obsessed with history.\u003cbr\u003e Of course, sometimes it is necessary to refer to the past, but Koreans believe that all answers lie in the past, and they turn to old scriptures whenever a new phenomenon arises.\u003cbr\u003e Because of this, anything that does not fit the old has been denied its value, and those who advocate for something new have been buried by those who spread the scriptures.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eNew things are in new places.\u003cbr\u003e As long as we continue to use the same language as before, no new future will be created.\u003cbr\u003e The 'culture of looking back', which is engraved in the minds of Koreans, often holds back young people who are looking toward the future.\u003cbr\u003e Because of this 'culture of looking back', Koreans have long been unable to see into the future.\u003cbr\u003e As the new year approaches, the eldest daughter-in-law of the ancestral home draws dozens of circles on the calendar, counting down the lunar dates for the ancestral rites that must be performed that year.\u003cbr\u003e The new year is already filled with the past, and tomorrow is reduced to a time spent reliving yesterday's funeral memories.\u003cbr\u003e Even if we say that it is an action for the future, it is only at the level of looking at the grave site in advance.\u003cbr\u003e Even if we always dream of the future, it is not easy to create a beautiful tomorrow. In a society where almost all members always remember yesterday and the past, we live. \u003cbr\u003eWill the members of this society be able to correctly predict and adapt to the future society that is changing at a dizzying pace?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eConfucian culture kills women\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The biggest victims of Confucian culture are women.\u003cbr\u003e The Confucian classics, “Shang Shu” and “When a hen crows, the household will fall apart” and Confucius’s words in the Analects, “Women and mean people are difficult to raise,” have become the standards for determining the status of women in Eastern society.\u003cbr\u003e Although laws such as same-sex marriage and inheritance laws have been passed through the National Assembly with great difficulty, the cultural legacy of male superiority and female inferiority still persists.\u003cbr\u003e However, this exploitation and oppression of women ultimately resulted in harm to men.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e As psychoanalysis says, every man has a feminine personality in his unconscious. \u003cbr\u003eMen yearn for and search for a woman who matches their needs, and this is the emotion called 'anima'.\u003cbr\u003e Confucian culture can be said to be a cultural structure that discourages men's anima by making it too easy to possess women.\u003cbr\u003e Men in Confucian society controlled women in an attempt to possess them completely, but in the end, they gained nothing.\u003cbr\u003e Many of the Confucian devices created to completely possess women ended up killing them.\u003cbr\u003e Women in Confucianism were no longer human or feminine.\u003cbr\u003e It was nothing but a distorted life form, nothing but chaos bound by resentment.\u003cbr\u003e Eventually, the women exploded and left the men.\u003cbr\u003e The Oriental men, having lost the pure feminine nature of the primitive, ended up losing everything. \u003cbr\u003eEven if the anti-gender discrimination law is passed, the oppression of the anima created by the long-standing culture of gender discrimination has not yet been restored.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eConfucian culture stifles creativity.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e I don't know about other fields, but Japan reigns supreme in the world when it comes to manga and animation.\u003cbr\u003e It was the power of unbridled imagination that made it possible.\u003cbr\u003e The reason most older Koreans have an aversion to Japanese comics is not because of the violence and sexual content of Japanese comics, but rather because of their own Confucian values ​​of solemnity.\u003cbr\u003e In other words, Confucian solemnity cannot tolerate the bombast and frivolity of Japanese manga.\u003cbr\u003e But the boastfulness and frivolity, on the other hand, are also amazing imagination and wit.\u003cbr\u003e If imagination and wit are the core of comics, the core of Confucianism is reality and solemnity.\u003cbr\u003e There's no way these two can get along. \u003cbr\u003eConfucian values ​​always belittle and slander comics.\u003cbr\u003e Confucius said this:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “I don’t talk about weird, forced, confusing things, or ghost stories.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This means, in other words, to say only what is normal, pure, simple, and human.\u003cbr\u003e Because of this, our imagination, which has been suppressed for over 600 years from the Joseon Dynasty to the present day, is unable to burst forth even today, as the 21st century approaches.\u003cbr\u003e The coming century is often referred to as the age of creativity.\u003cbr\u003e However, the poverty of imagination that Confucian values ​​create makes expectations of cultural creativity impossible.\u003cbr\u003e That's why the culture of copying is so extreme.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Meanwhile, Confucian culture had an attitude of reverence for writing and restraint toward speech. \u003cbr\u003eThis trend persists even today, with writing becoming the mainstream ability test, from dictation in first grade elementary school to essay tests for college entrance exams and job interviews.\u003cbr\u003e However, the 'writing' at this time had a more serious problem in that it was not creative writing, but 'copying' within the framework of the classics (textbooks). (Look at the uniform composition and conclusion of essay test answers.) This 'copying' culture originated from Confucius's declaration of 'copying but not creating', and it became established as a social ill in Eastern Confucian society due to the 'writing must contain morality' trend of the Tang and Song Dynasties.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In any case, communication, which should be the top priority in learning a foreign language, is ignored, and textbooks are created with a focus on handling written text. \u003cbr\u003eAlso, teachers only teach spelling and grammar, which are not related to communication.\u003cbr\u003e So, students read English books as if they were Chinese books, and focus only on understanding their deeper meaning.\u003cbr\u003e They only study to pass the test without realizing that English is a 'language'.\u003cbr\u003e As a result, they end up becoming idiots who know the deep(?) meaning of words but cannot say a single easy word.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eConfucian culture destroys society\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The critical flaw of Confucian culture is that it plunges the social system into a vicious cycle of collapse.\u003cbr\u003e Confucian culture contains inherent contradictions that lead to its own collapse.\u003cbr\u003e Confucian culture is like a virus that corrodes the society it lives in, ultimately leading to its collapse. \u003cbr\u003eIt hides itself in various parts of a program like a Trojan horse, or sometimes like a computer virus, and starts working when the timing is right.\u003cbr\u003e And then finally, it paralyzes the entire program it is in.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e When a new political power emerges, they invariably wave the flag of lofty morality.\u003cbr\u003e It doesn't matter whether the content is 'Let's live well', 'Building a just society', 'Ordinary people', 'Correcting history', or 'Second founding of the nation'.\u003cbr\u003e They exercise extra-legal power under that banner and destroy the basic rules of social operation.\u003cbr\u003e In their exercise of power, the professional community is relegated to a secondary position, and objective warning devices for social collapse are neutralized one by one. \u003cbr\u003eThis phenomenon spreads through the corrosion of professional systems in each social class, and eventually collapses immediately when a decisive external shock or internal chaos occurs.\u003cbr\u003e So is that the end? Not at all.\u003cbr\u003e A new moral flag will be raised to resolve the situation.\u003cbr\u003e Their slogans are consistent.\u003cbr\u003e “Koreans are a great people, once again!” Of course, that is only the beginning of another cycle of collapse.\u003cbr\u003e Unless we boldly weed out Confucian culture, we cannot avoid this vicious cycle of collapse.\u003cbr\u003e Events like the Japan-Korea Annexation, the Korean War, and the IMF crisis will happen again at any time. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:95%;padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e GOODS SPECIFICS \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eDate of issue:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 1, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003ePage count, weight, size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 384 pages | 462g | 122*190*30mm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9791166891533 \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e","brand":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43894490365994,"sku":"123483","price":18.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/2750\/5962\/files\/f1a0037eebdd0faa7eb93240921ba593.jpg?v=1765435236","url":"https:\/\/librairie.coreenne.fr\/en\/products\/123483","provider":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
