Description of Taekwondo
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the historical, political, and technical evolution of taekwondo. Many of the supposedly `traditional¿ and `ancient¿ Korean cultural elements attached to taekwondo are, in fact, remnants of East Asiäs modernization drive, and largely inherited from the Japanese martial arts. It debunks nationalistic mythology surrounding taekwondo to provide a reinterpretation of taekwondo¿s evolution.
