	List of political parties in South Korea - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		South Korea has a multi-party system, with numerous parties in which parties have a chance of gaining power alone.
		It is the heir of South Korea's traditionally conservative political elite.
		It was formerly the major liberal party and the second-largest party prior to the election, but sustained the biggest loss in the backlash following its leading role in the impeachment of Roh, as much of its support shifted to the Uri Party, with which discussions to merge are likely.

	Democratic Party (South Korea) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Democratic Party (Korean hangul: 민주당; hanja: 民主黨; revised: Minjudang; McCune-Reischauer: Minju-dang) is a political party of South Korea.
		President Roh Moo-hyun was elected as the party's candidate in 2002, but he subsequently left the party and his supporters formed the Uri Party in 2003.
		The MDP lost popularity when Roh was impeached in March of 2004 by the National Assembly for illegal electioneering and incompetence charges with support from the Grand National Party, losing 53 seats to a total of only 9 seats in the 2004 parliamentary election.

	Challenges of Building a Korean Peace Process: Special Reports: Publications: U.S. Institute of Peace
		North Korea's economic distress has increased its dependence on China and the international community; however, its political structure--and the power of Kim Jong Il as its ultimate authority--remains intact in spite of the emergence of public differences among its bureaucratic organs and the rise of corruption among North Korean cadres at the highest levels.
		Additional political and financial support for South Korea's efforts to pursue a dialogue with North Korea may be required from Washington as part of a broadened and well-coordinated approach to North Korea.
		South Korea's economic difficulties have reduced its capacity to finance peace-building with North Korea, including its ability to absorb the economic shocks that would accompany any sudden change in North Korea's economic or political status.

	History of Christianity in Korea: From Its Troubled Beginning to
		Departing from the internal, political motives of previous persecutions--i.e., Christianity's threat, real or imagined, to the Confucian-based society, and the prominence of Christianity among the politically ousted faction--what marked the latest persecution was that the problems which prompted it were due to external pressures on Korea at the time.
		In the "divided" Korea, the experience of the churches in North and South Korea was markedly different, except for the nation-wide bitter disputes between those who collaborated with the Japanese and those who resisted.
		First of all, the rise of Christianity in South Korea is intimately related to the profound discontent and despair felt by the masses, prompted by centuries of dire poverty, social marginalization and oppression.

	South Korea's nuclear surprise \| thebulletin.org
		Fourth, South Korea's hidden actions exemplify the impulse toward proliferation that arises in response to the discriminatory treatment the United States shows to different states, permitting, for example, Japan to have tons of plutonium while South Korea may have none, and Japan to explore mixed oxide fuels for reactors while South Korea may not.
		The news that South Korea admitted in August 2004 that it had enriched uranium and not declared it was trumped in September by the revelation that it had also extracted plutonium in 1982, and had declared neither activity to the IAEA.
		The fact that South Korea's secrecy was sustained even as it was engaged in an attempt to end the North Korean nuclear program, and specifically, the North's alleged uranium enrichment program, leaves the South and its allies, especially the United States, open to accusations of hypocrisy and double standards.

	Elites and Political Power in South Korea, by Byong-Man Ahn
		Elites and Political Power in South Korea is based on earlier work on the Korean government by Byong-Man Ahn published in Korean and takes part in a longstanding debate in political science, and especially within studies of democracy, concerning the formation and importance of elites within the political system.
		Using Samuel Huntington's work on party development and a detailed analysis of National Assembly elections, the author argues that the development of political parties in Korea have "evolved through the repetitious cycle of four stages" (207).
		Ahn argues that while the political neutrality of public officials has "exercised a remarkable influence on the executive administration" (257) and that "public officials in Korea are more severely constrained in their political activities than their counterparts in Western Europe" (267), nevertheless this neutrality has not been observed in reality.

		South Korea's April 13th National Assembly elections signified a new hope for cleaner politics but the campaign trail showed little signs of addressing substantive policy issues.
		Four main parties were in the running, but the election came down to a tight race between the ruling Millennium Democratic Party and the largest opposition party, the Grand National Party.
		The author argues that the irresponsible disclosures by the opposition party are endless and the ruling party threats to the nation are unacceptable.

		The Government's rationale for retaining the NSL has been that North Korea actively is trying to subvert the Government and society and that due to this special circumstance, some forms of expression must be limited to block the greater danger to freedom and democracy posed by North Korean totalitarianism.
		It is difficult to estimate the number of political prisoners because it is not clear whether particular persons were arrested for merely exercising the rights of free speech or association or were detained for committing acts of violence or espionage.

		However, the ruling party has recently made guarded statements of support for this "rejection campaign" saying that it is time for the political sector to deeply repent.
		Though this Korea Times editorial supports the civic groups' actions, the article suggests that the more important issue is election law reform so that groups do not have to resort to extreme measures that defy existing laws.
