Abstract
- The article discusses anti-American beef movements in South Korea and Taiwan, their conservative regimes and varying outcomes, and how cultural factors in South Korea produced strong anti-government sentiments. Topics include how South Korean activists opposed the importation of American beef because of health concerns and how contamination fears grew into a nationalistic movement. Additional information is presented on the South Korean and Taiwanese presidents' conservative policies and desire to open free trade with the U.S.
