ABSTRACT

Baek Nam-Woon proposed the concept and the term of ‘Coalition New Democracy’ as his idea to build a new Chosun. Having examined all existing forms of democracy including liberal democracy, social democracy, proletarian democracy as well as Eastern Europe's people's democracy and Mao Zedong's New Democracy, he declared clearly that all such systems of democracy could not be applied to Chosun. ‘Coalition New Democracy’ can be characterized as an advocacy for building a ‘classless unity nation-state' that is free of class confrontation among all members of the society by organizing a proletarian democratic regime in coalition with some conscientious members of the propertied class (landowners and bourgeoisie), and thereby completing a New Democracy that achieves national as well as social liberation.
