1- Impact of the Division on the South Korean Society / 8 Juin 2016, 14h-16h

Topics such as the anti-communist society, the military society, the patriarchal sexual culture, the changes in geographical social situation and the changes in family relationship, will be mobilized in order to give an answer to the question.

The lecture will deal with the issue of separated families by raising two main questions concerning on the one hand, the typology of the separated families, and on the other hand, the periodic characteristics of Wollamin population and its migration motives.
