People's Committee : ウィキペディア英語版 | People's Committee
The People's Committees (''Inmin Wiwǒnhoe'') were a species of largely local self-government which appeared throughout Korea immediately following the conclusion of the Second World War. These committees existed in their original form from August 1945 to early 1946. == Formation and Objectives ==
Immediately following the close of the Pacific War, the rapid advance of Soviet troops coupled with an equally rapid retreat from the peninsula by the Japanese colonial forces, left most of Korea with functionally no government. To restore order in the power vacuum as well as to remedy historical grievances, many Korean cities and towns organized their own government counsels. These counsels which were formed throughout the country at first went by different names including 'Committees Preparing for the Restoration of Statehood' and 'National Administration Committees'. By September 1945, however, they were universally called 'People's Political Committees' (''inmin chǒnch'i wiwǒnhoe'') and then by October they came to be called 'People's Committees'.〔Kov, A. N. From Stalin to Kim Il Sung: The Formation of North Korea, 1945-1960. New Brunswick, N.J.: Rutgers University Press, 2002.p. 12〕 These Counsels, some electorally determined, some not, featured local notables and community leaders. As much as these People's Committees were unified by their ''ad hoc'' characteristics, they varied widely in their specifics by their locality. The People's Committees were not a single, national movement, and therefore there is no single blueprint by which they can be examined. However, the committees in general shared some characteristics. Most of the committees attempted to remove Japanese or Pro-Japanese collaborators from positions of authority. Most people's committees were concerned with the local issues of maintaining order after liberation and protecting food supplies. Most People's committees also attempted some degree of land reform and land redistribution. They seized large land holdings and distributed them to tenants or small holding farmers. The success of the PCs in pursuing these political projects varied widely depending on where the committees were in Korea.〔Armstrong, Charles K. The North Korean Revolution, 1945-1950.
