For numerous reasons, there has been a virtual absence of authentic Korean studies in Western academia. By presenting Donghak as a case study of religion for social transformation, this book examines why Korean religious and intellectual traditions have been almost nonexistent and, if existent, distorted, misrepresented, or misunderstood in Western religious and philosophical studies. %K Minjung-Theologie, Religion for Social Transformation, Sozialer Wandel, Interreligiƶse Beziehung, Donghak, Inter-religious dialogue, Korean religious, Non-Korean tradition, Tonghak, Korea %G English
