International Human Rights Regime and Domestic Politics in South Korea: An Analysis of the Human Rights Agenda between 1948-1960
Abstract
This paper treats historically the implications of a human rights agenda under the Syngman Rhee government during the 1950s. In the process of forming an international human rights regime and the reorganization of the world order after World War II, Korea was introduced to basic rights and human rights as a modular mechanism of a nation-state. With the establishment of the Republic of Korea, the basic rights of the people were provided for in the constitution and the government commemorated Human Rights Day and Human Rights Week. Apart from the influence of the international human rights regime, the political tactics of the Syngman Rhee government worked largely to institutionalize domestic human rights. Arguing that it was “the only legal government recognized by the United Nations,” the government began to commemorate and propagate United Nations Human Rights Day. Commemorated since 1950, it worked as an instrumental justification to maintain the anticommunist state of Syngman Rhee.
