Challenging the dominant view that women were victimized by the Japanese family laws and its patriarchal biases, Sungyun Lim argues that Korean women had to struggle equally against Korean patriarchal interests. Moreover, women were not passive victims; instead, they proactively struggled to expand their rights by participating in the Japanese colonial legal system. In turn, the Japanese doctrine of promoting progressive legal rights would prove advantageous to them. Following female plaintiffs and their civil disputes from the precolonial Choson dynasty through colonial times and into postcolonial reforms, this book presents a new and groundbreaking story about Korean women's legal struggles, revealing their surprising collaborative relationship with the colonial state. 606 $aDomestic relations$zKorea$y20th century 606 $aWomen$xLegal status, laws, etc$zKorea$y20th century 606 $aHISTORY / Asia / General$2bisacsh 607 $aKorea$xHistory$yJapanese occupation, 1910-1945 610 $acivil courts. 610 $acivilization. 610 $acolonial times. 610 $ajapan. 610 $ajapanese colonial legal system. 610 $ajapanese colonial rule of korea. 610 $ajapanese family laws. 610 $ajapanese motto. 610 $akorean women. 610 $akorean womens legal struggles. 610 $ameiji civil code. 610 $apassive victims. 610 $apatriarchal biases. 610 $apost colonial reforms. 610 $apre colonial chosen dynasty. 610 $apromoting progress. 610 $athrough the lens of women. 610 $avictimized women. 615 0$aDomestic relations 615 0$aWomen$xLegal status, laws, etc 615 7$aHISTORY / Asia / General. 676 $a346.51901/509041 700 $aLim$b Sungyun, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut.$0904756 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910296440903321 996 $aRules of the House$92023396 997 $aUNINA
