| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The parliamentary and presidential elections held in the republic of Korea in 2012 led to a significant realignment of political forces in the country. The neoconservatives suffered a heavy defeat, and the opposition rallied its forces, if even for a while. The inauguration of the new president set off gradual reforms in the economy and social services. The new political landscape is also influencing the relations between the two Koreas, already showing signs of a breakthrough. |
