Abstract
The Korean New Right appeared for the first time in the early 1990s, in company with the new wave of Globalization, as a result of a world-scale expansion of New Liberalism. With the collapse of the real Socialist Regime, the shock of the IMF financial crisis in Korea created new political environment that The Korean New Right build. They replaced old right-wing with new ideology, updated the old theory and thought of the old right-wing, through the renewal of the Anti Communism Discourse. Korean New Right rather emphasized renewed-Nationalism and state centered market economy, unlike the old right-wing who only agitated the Anti Communism. Korean New Right mainly targeted to criticize so-called Korean Post Modernism, a new version of Old Marxism. Claimed to stand for the competition of ideology with Korean Post Modernism, as well as the old right-wing, they inaugurated a kind of ‘thought struggle’ or political strife, beyond the academic sphere.
