Philosophical Foundations of the Korean State in Historic Approach
Abstract
The aim of this article is to present the philosophical foundations of the Korean State in the historic approach. In another words it is the answer to the question: On which philosophy the Korean State is based.
The problem here is not so much the concept of the State itself as the concept of philosophy. In the history of Korean thought it is hard to distinguish philosophy from religion. Philosophy, religion and culture build together “the philosophy of life”. In the Korean context it will be Shamanism, Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, Christianity, New Religions and Korean popular religion.
