Summary
This course examines the food economic history of colonial Joseon, exploring how the reorganization of the traditional food industry and the transplantation of new food industries were promoted to meet domestic demand and even achieve exports to and within the Japanese Empire. Through this, students can understand a cross-section of the industrial base supporting the food culture exchange between colonial Joseon and mainland Japan, as well as the financial base of colonial rule, while simultaneously grasping their strong defining power over the post-liberation Korean economy.
