Abstract

This chapter describes the historical background of the Korean conflict, in order to provide context for analysis of the Korean peace process. The Korean War is studied as direct violence. The dictatorships in the Korean peninsula are examined as structural violence. The chapter also examines how both North and South Korean dictatorships justified their structural violence by using nationalism and the Korean conflict. Although negative peace has been sustained in the Korean peninsula since the Armistice Agreement of 1953, this chapter demonstrates why addressing structural violence is essential to building a just and sustainable peace on the Korean peninsula.
