초록

The past decade saw a remarkable expansion of women's political participation in Korea. In particular, in terms of women's political participation the result of 17th General Election was notable compared to that of other General Elections during the preceding periods. This was mainly due to an introduction of the gender quota caused by societal pressures together with societal pressures from women's groups. Despite a notable recent increase in women's political representation, women in Korea society have still been underrepresented politically. The past studies have tended to focus upon the law-institutional aspects for enhancing women's political participation. Rather, this study concentrates on the women's political networks. In other words, it address a social base of women's political participation. After looking briefly at the past history of Korean women's political participation focused upon the change in the number of seats taken by women at National Assembly, this study considers the characteristics and problems of Korean women's political participation and suggests that building temporary or constant-based women's political networks among women's NGOs and gender-related interest groups based upon life politics at national and/or Local level be the core key to expanding women's political participation in Korea. Women`s political networks for improving women's political participation can be a crucial factor for overcoming the deep-seated male-dominant political, socioeconomic and cultural obstacles in Korean society. That is, women's political networks can contribute to alleviating the various problems facing women [potential] politicians, such as political. financing, human networking and power organizing.

Abstract

The past decade saw a remarkable expansion of women's political participation in Korea. In particular, in terms of women's political participation the result of 17th General Election was notable compared to that of other General Elections during the preceding periods. This was mainly due to an introduction of the gender quota caused by societal pressures together with societal pressures from women's groups. Despite a notable recent increase in women's political representation, women in Korea society have still been underrepresented politically. The past studies have tended to focus upon the law-institutional aspects for enhancing women's political participation. Rather, this study concentrates on the women's political networks. In other words, it address a social base of women's political participation. After looking briefly at the past history of Korean women's political participation focused upon the change in the number of seats taken by women at National Assembly, this study considers the characteristics and problems of Korean women's political participation and suggests that building temporary or constant-based women's political networks among women's NGOs and gender-related interest groups based upon life politics at national and/or Local level be the core key to expanding women's political participation in Korea. Women`s political networks for improving women's political participation can be a crucial factor for overcoming the deep-seated male-dominant political, socioeconomic and cultural obstacles in Korean society. That is, women's political networks can contribute to alleviating the various problems facing women [potential] politicians, such as political. financing, human networking and power organizing.
