- Title
"With All Your Heart": American Missionaries and the State in Mission Fields.
- Authors
Kim, Sejoo
- Abstract
The article argues that American missionaries came to revisit the relationship between church and state, as in the case of the shrine crisis in colonial Korea which laid bare American missionaries' dependence on the state. Topics discussed include how political sensibilities acquired in the mission field found their ways into twentieth-century U.S. politics, information on the rule by permit that marked a prominent feature of colonial Korea, and hallmark of the shrine crisis in the late 1930s. It also mentions advice given by the U.S. government to missionaries in Japan and its territories in late 1940, alerted by heightened militarism in Imperial Japan and possible hostilities that could endanger Americans there.
