Abstract
It is contended that current South Korean student political activism is characterized by complex ideological formulations, highly developed tactics, & connections with other social powers, & is located within an ideological framework of Marxism-Leninism in its active struggles against imperialism & fascism. Another major goal is reunification of South & North Korea. Despite its national influence, student activism is being criticized by the public & by students themselves because of its underlying revolutionary ideologies & violence. In the coming years, social scientists should observe how students respond to public criticism & to the changing national & world environment. 22 References. Adapted from the source document.
