不殺生: 韓半島에서의 平和體制 構築을 위한 提言 (“Nonkilling Korea”)

by Glenn D. Paige

In 立命館国際研究 – Ritsumeikan Kokusai Kenkyu [The Ritsumeikan Journal of International Studies, Kyoto], Vol. 9, No. 4 (March, 1997).

Summary: Let us approach the problem of peaceful reunification of Korea in its Northeast Asian and global context from a nonkilling political science perspective. In contrast to conventional political science which is based on the assumption that readiness to kill is essential for social well-being, nonkilling political science departs from the assumption that a nonkilling society is possible. This is a society in which there is no killing of humans and threaths to kill; no weapons specifically designed to kill humans and no legitimizations for using them; and no conditions of society that depend upon threat of use of killing for mainteance or change.
