Abstract
Despite the promulgation of the South Korean Constitution—which publically guaranteed equality for all citizens—gender inequality and the low status of women in several sectors are lasting social problems. In the 1980s, the increased global interest in women’s movements, along with democratization movements in Korea, caused the government to become aware of women’s issues. Since the 1990s, a variety of policies and legislation to address the social needs of women have been enacted. In Chap. 5 we deal with the stream of policies and legislation in Korea since the 1990s.
