Kim tells a different story: he emphasizes the importance of sixty years of local activist work and the long history of truth’s suppression.
Hun Joon Kim is a Senior Lecturer at the School of Government and International Relations, Griffith University, Australia. He is coeditor of Transitional Justice in the Asia Pacific.
"A welcome addition to the field of Korean Studies and for comparative research on transitional justice."
"[The Massacres at Mt. Halla] should be commended for being the rare academic work that aims to be both didactic and analytical, that exhibits command over particulars while reaching toward the general, and that is concise yet thorough. It should also be praised for extending a local project of witness from South Korea to a global audience. This book should be assigned reading for any interdisciplinary audience interested in the complexities of a politics centered on justice."
"An exceptional portrayal of the journey that the South Korean people have taken."
"Kim's (convincing) conclusion that local activists played the critical role in establishing the Jeju Commission... represents an important contribution"
"Kim provides an interesting case study of the Jeju 4.3 Incident that is an essential reading not only for Korean studies but also for scholars interested in truth commissions in general."
"Massacres at Mt. Halla makes a number of important contributions to audiences in Korean Studies, International Relations, and transitional justice."
