AB - Local elections represent opportunities for local residents to make their judgment on local politicians and to appointment new ones who may best address local issues. However local elections in Korea have always been dominated by national agendas and partisan politics such as the mid-term evaluation of the central government. The manifesto campaign was introduced in the May 31, 2006 local election to promote a policy-oriented election and to foster responsible politics. This manifesto campaign wasinitiated by civic organizations. In addition, a number of media groups also participated in this electoral reform campaign. This campaign has had a reasonably positive effect on voters, politicians, and parties. However, its effect on the political culture has been gradual, and the development of manifesto elections is currently proceeding. Democratic citizenship education is absolutely necessary for the development of democracy. The manifesto campaign aims to change the election and political culturesand cultivate democratic citizenship. Therefore, this campaign is a type of political socialization and represents the core of democratic citizenship education.
