Abstract	"This book investigates the internationalization of South Korea's democratization movements in conjunction with global human rights booms in the 1970s. It shows how local (ecumenical) protesters were able to translate their sufferings and causes into international human rights claims, thus opening up transnational disputes on US Cold War geopolitics"-- Provided by publisher.
