Constitutionalism on Trial in South Korea 

 - Washington, DC  :  The Johns Hopkins University Press ,  April 2005

But with Roh Moo Hyun's narrow election to the presidency on 19 December 2002, the democratic transition that South Korea began in 1987 entered a profoundly new era. The presidency has exposed rifts between majority rule and constitutionalism that the country's judiciary is struggling to bridge.
