PATHWAYS TO STATE WELFARE IN KOREA

Social Policy in Modern Asia

Series Editor

CATHERINE JONES FINER

In an age of globalization, this series is designed to help broaden the basis and the perspectives of international comparative social policy by introducing fresh countries and above all fresh perspectives on social policy into what has hitherto been very much a Western-dominated field. Topics to be covered include social care, welfare services, family structure, crime and punishment, pensions, housing, and healthcare in various countries including China, Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand.

This manuscript has been forthcoming for some time, and it is a great pleasure to finally be able to offer my thanks to all those who have helped me with their comments, criticisms and support.

Throughout the course of completing this book, I am above all indebted to Dr. John Hudson who has encouraged, guided and supported me. Special thanks should also go to Professor John Ditch, Professor Ian Gough and Dr. Stuart Lowe for their help. I also want to express my sincere thanks to all my friends and colleagues both in the Department of Social Policy and Social Work at the University of York and in the International Development Department, School of Public Policy at the University of Birmingham.

In the course of my fieldwork, I have accumulated debts of hospitality and intellectual advice. Although they have been promised anonymity, I want to express in a general way my appreciation for their help.

I am very grateful to Adrian Lee and Dr. Eve Richards for their reading of the entire manuscript. Special thanks should also go to Professor Catherine Jones Finer, an anonymous reviewer and editors of Ashgate for their encouragement and support.

Most of all, I want to thank my wife, Sooyoun, who has been incredibly patient and supportive during the course of writing this book.

Part of appeared in Social Policy and Society (volume 3, number 3, pp.243-252, 2004), entitled The Mechanism of Income Redistribution: The Case of South Korea and I appreciate the willingness of the Cambridge University Press to allow the publication of its revised version here.

This book is dedicated to those whom I owe a lifetime of example and encouragement, my parents. This book is at least as much theirs as mine.
