Research Abstract |
This research brought the next five results about the process of breaking Korean War (1950) and the political, economical and social changes after it in South and North Korea from the investigations and collections of the top materials opened in the United States, China and Russia. 1.North Korean design to open Korean War was shown in reflection on history from Korean Liberation through separate regimes to Korean war. KIM Il-sung wished to take a real political power of Korean communist movement after he lost it in merging South and North Korean Workers' Parties (1949/6). 2.My explanation about causes of purge by KIM Il-sung of communist groups in Korean Workers' Party was proved in this research. The main cause of it was the power struggle between KIM and PARK Hun-yung, then the vice prime and foreign minister. 3.The process of structural formation of "mutual dependence on antagonism" between South and North Korea was became clear. After the massacres in this war, the domestic system to rule by purging political rivals in identifying them with military foes over front line was built in each other within the logic of Cold War. 4.A lot of materials opened in the United States and China were collected and the locations of Russian materials were confirmed in this research. National Archives II in College Park City, Documentary room of Chinese Communist Party and some Arhifs in Moscow are such main places. 5.Head investigator succeeded in holding some interviews with comparatively high-level North Koreaners who were exiled in China as like KIM Gang, the pre-vice minister of Department of Culture and Propaganda in North Korea, who promised me to sell very rear materials. Network to research in the future was established in this research activities.
