Abstract

Some environmental NGOs and researchers accepting the environmental justice(hereafter, EJ) as the guiding principle for activities or the new ideal agenda have emerged in South Korea since late 1990s. However, the idea of EJ has been tied up ethical principle or initial stage of discourse on defining it among environmental groups in Korean society. This study aims to explore of geographical contribution in spatiality of EJ theory and to provide of practical explanation and suggestions in EJ movement. This study pays attention on the self-burning accident of one 70s’ senior, who had resisted electricity transmission tower planed to be put on his rice paddy in Miryang,Kyoungsang Province. His death had uncovered the state’s hidden violence conducting forceful process of larger state projects and exposed the linkage between the transmission facilities and intensive nuclear complex. After his death, localized grassroots resistance against building transmission towers has been re-scaling toward national-wide anti-nuclear movement. This study describes the dynamics of scale politics generating social movement toward post-nuclear society, which fills up the blank of social meaning after his death. Active participation of localized agents for reconstructing social meanings on their locality and ethical relationship between local people and voluntary citizens in new ways could produce various spaces of engagement. Finally, this study insists to establish the practically-oriented EJ discourse based on the ethics of the others.
