520 Seventeenth-century Korea was a country in crisis--
successive invasions by Hideyoshi and the Manchus had
rocked the Chosòn dynasty (1392-1910), which already was
weakened by maladministration, internecine bureaucratic
factionalism, unfair taxation, concentration of wealth,
military problems, and other ills. Yu Hyòngwòn (1622-1673,
pen name, Pan'gye), a recluse scholar, responded to this
time of chaos and uncertainty by writing his modestly
titled Pan'gye surok (The Jottings of Pan'gye), a virtual
encyclopedia of Confucian statecraft, designed to support
his plan for a revived and reformed Korean system of
government. Although Yu was ignored in his own time by all
but a few admirers and disciples, his ideas became
prominent by the mid-eighteenth century as discussions
were underway to solve problems in taxation, military
service, and commercial activity. Yu has been viewed by
Korean and Japanese scholars as a forerunner of
modernization, but in Confucian Statecraft and Korean
Institutions James B. Palais challenges this view,
demonstrating that Yu was instead an outstanding example
of the premodern tradition. Palais uses Yu Hyòngwòn's
mammoth, pivotal text to examine the development and shape
of the major institutions of Chosòn dynasty Korea. He has
included a thorough treatment of the many Chinese
classical and historical texts that Yu used as well as the
available Korean primary sources and Korean and Japanese
secondary scholarship. Palais traces the history of each
of Yu's subjects from the beginning of the dynasty and
pursues developments through the eighteenth and nineteenth
centuries. He stresses both the classical and historical
roots of Yu's reform ideas and analyzes the nature and
degree of proto-capitalistic changes, such as the use of
metallic currency, the introduction of wage labor into the
agrarian economy, the development of unregulated
commercial activity, and the appearance of industries with
more differentiation of labor. Because it contains much
comparative material, Confucian Statecraft and Korean
Institutions will be of interest to scholars of China and
Japan, as well as to Korea specialists. It also has much
to say to scholars of agrarian society, slavery,
landholding systems, bureaucracy, and developing
economies.
