| The paper attempts to expand the political spaces of South Korean feminist politics of reproduction, which demands women’s biological reproductive rights from the state in the context of the developmental hegemony of Korean society. The case study of SMCs (Saemaul Mothers’ Clubs) shows that a long, deep, and continuous mobilization of women’s biological reproduction has been undertaken by the state within the frame of economic and socio-political development. In this process women have embodied developmentalism, creating strong consent for the associated state-led development policies. The feminist politics of reproduction calls for a shift from the politics of women’s biological reproductive rights with a strategy for engaging with the state in a struggle to deconstruct the developmental hegemony of reproduction that is simultaneously entrenched in people’s bodies, sexuality, mindsets, behavior patterns and in civil society groups, state institutions, and economic sectors at local, national, and global levels. | |
