ABSTRACT

This paper analyses the problems of ideological polarization between the left and the right in the areas of politics and economic. Based on this, it will be examined the principles and theoretical logics of 'life politics' proposed by the Democratic Party. The aim of this analysis is to suggest the model for building the advanced society through elaborating social consensus on compatibility between economic development and distribution in the 21st century. To do the task, this paper explores the characteristics of the evolving Korean society in terms of three aspects: condensity, pluralism and irresponsibility. The features resulted in serious problems such as the distortion of party politics, poverty and social exclusion. After solving the substantial problems, Korea will take an opportunity for the construction of the advanced society in the post-industrial period. The prime agenda of this Korea should be the human rights that is the viable value of democratic society.
