AB - As for the Manifesto Movement during the last 5·31 local elections, there have been approaches focusing on campaign pledge review rather than prospect as a civil movement. This article makes clear the meaning of the Movement and implication as a new civil movement.
The Manifesto Movement does not finish as an event during elections, but has cycles from collecting opinion to formation of operating system and infrastructure, policy implementation, and monitoring and evaluation. The Movement during 5·31 local elections was an important attempt for capacity-building of grassroots movement, despite limitation of current local politics and encroaching on local issues by central politics, and has proved some potentialities.
Some critics argue that the Movement has limitations such as possibilities of political abuse, final effect, review criteria consisting of individual indicator, and value free based review. But they have to keep in mind that the Movement is continuous deliberation and monitoring for putting manifestos into practice until next elections, not merely written campaign pledge. And they have to dismiss the old idea that they can affect voters’ mind under the premise ‘we are the good NGOs’. This article argue that we can find prospect for developing new civil movement based locality through the Movement.
