Rural development takes different targets and approaches following national development levels. Developing countries’ development goals will be different from those of advanced countries. Korea quickly overcame the challenges generally faced by developing countries in the 1960s. Now its policy targets for rural development are similar to those of developed countries. The international community appraises its success in rural development, and developing countries benchmark it for their progress. Korea’s rural development strategy combines its rural characteristics formed through a long history and its unique policy environment. To understand its rural development strategy, the reader should first explore its rural features and transformations, the platform for rural development policies, and residents and other various stakeholders’ roles and participation. It is also essential to look into the rural development strategy’s position in national economic growth. Although Korea’s rural development expertise gains attention from the world, there is not much literature walking us through Korea’s rural development strategy to grab its full view. This publication guides the reader to how Korea has developed rural communities since the 1960s to understand its strategy. Besides, this publication will provide implications for international partnerships. I hope this book will help the reader to explore and understand Korea’ rural development strategy changes. |
