Comparative Research on Women and Family Related Legislation of South and North Korea in Preparation For the Reunification of Korea

---

The book Comparative Research on Women and Family Related Legislation of South and North Korea in Preparation for the Reunification of Korea offers a systematic comparative analysis of family- and women-related laws and policies in the two Koreas to anticipate legal harmonization challenges and opportunities in a reunification scenario. Drawing on statutory review, case law, and policy documents, the study highlights key divergences in family law, gender rights, social welfare provisions, and institutional mechanisms for protecting women and families, and examines how these differences affect women's legal status, economic security, and access to services. The book situates legal contrasts within broader social, political, and historical contexts and assesses likely transitional issues—such as recognition of family relationships, custody and inheritance disputes, and the integration of social protection systems—while proposing practical frameworks for legislative alignment, capacity building, and transitional justice measures that prioritize gender equity and the protection of vulnerable groups during reunification.
