SUMMARY:Contentious Diffusion of Human Rights: Evidence from South Korean P
 rint Media\, 1990-2010
DESCRIPTION:\n	Koo Jeong-Woo (Associate Professor\, Department of Sociology
 \, Sungkyunkwan University\; HYI Visiting Scholar)\n	Chair/Discussant: Car
 ter Eckert (Yoon Se Young Professor of Korean History\, Harvard University
 )\n\n	Co-sponsored with the Korea Institute\n\n\n	Current scholarship on h
 uman rights diffusion is not well equipped to account for the remarkable d
 ynamics that are notable in the cycle of diffusion in a national society. 
 Professor Koo Jeong-Woo's alternative model considers contestation as an i
 ntrinsic element in the process of diffusion\; this contentious diffusion 
 might stem from complex domestic processes coupled with local cultural res
 ponses\, political disagreements\, and ideological competition. To support
  these claims\, Prof. Koo coded and analyzed 2\,134 newspaper articles tha
 t appeared in South Korean print media during the period between 1990 and 
 2010. Notwithstanding strong evidence pointing to a remarkable diffusion o
 f human rights in South Korean media in the 1990s\, the boom period came t
 o an end in the mid-2000s\, substantially slowing down human rights covera
 ge as well as making its overall tone increasingly negative. The findings 
 from South Korean print media lend support for the existence of a dynamic 
 cycle of human rights diffusion\, and the need to identify causal pathways
  leading to the contentious diffusion of human rights.
