Law, Development, and Korean Society

The role of law as a factor in the process of development has in large part been ignored in the burgeoning literature on this process. The relationships between economic, political, and social growth and the functions and uses of law and legal institutions are still virtually a matter of speculation. Anthropologists in recent years have begun to be attracted to the tensions between traditional and imported law, but concentration has largely been devoted to the African region, and to a lesser degree, the Latin American. East Asia has not figured prominently in their considerations, and Korea has been ignored. Yet there is a growing body of empirical data, largely in political science and public administration, which relate to the role of law in Korea and, by implication, to its potential role in development.
