Research Abstract |
This research clarified the relationship between vocational education and social education in colonial Korea, through analysis of social education policies and of educational practices and discourse by the Korean people with regard to vocational education. In colonial days, the Government-General of Korea was trying to lighten the competition of the secondary school entrance and relieve the job shortage to maintain its original colony management policies and, as a result, was going to let young men remain in rural areas, through social education policies related to vocational education such as "Vocational Supplementary School" or "the Graduate Instruction". On the other hand, the Korean people, who had always had severe entrance examination competition and job shortages, reclaimed their life by establishing by themselves schools and night schools that taught vocational education. At the same time, the Korean people, while accepting some of the educational policies of the Government-General of Korea, resisted other policies or made requests upon them when those policies were deemed to be against their aims and circumstances or to be unfair. In conclusion, the Government-General of Korea and the Korean people worked constructively, each toward its own goals, on social education with regard to vocational education in colonial Korea.
