Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This project examined reflections, negotiations and compromises in the reconstruction of middle-class lifestyles in today's globalizing, neo-liberalist South Korea, by means of the ethnographic research method. As the most fruitful ethnographic outcome, the project demonstrated fission of the mainstream developmentalist lifestyle constructed in the process of industrialization, as well as complex amalgamation of the mainstream and alternatives after the mid 2000's. As a theoretical prospect, it leads to a view that multiplication and dissociation as well as contact and negotiation in the process of the middle-class people's lifestyle making promote (re)construction of subjectivity which produces creative and productive practices while bound by the immediate politico-economical and/or socio-cultural conditions.
