Park Jeong-Mi: The State's Sexuality, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

"Turning an eye-opening lens onto state-sponsored prostitution from the twentieth century into contemporary times, The State's Sexuality is a must-read to understand the role of sex in modern state-building in Korea and beyond."--Suzy Kim, author of Among Women across Worlds: North Korea in the Global Cold War

"Park Jeong-Mi meticulously and humanely exposes the institutionalized deployment of Korean women as 'stateless patriots' who sexually serviced US military personnel to earn US dollars for the building of a nation and as statecraft of postcolonial, war-torn Korea, heavily dependent on US military and economic aid--the invisible base of the South Korean 'economic miracle.'"--Margo Okazawa-Rey, Professor Emerita, San Francisco State University
