Ilminism

Ilminism, also called the One-People Principle is an authoritarian,  ethno-nationalist and  egalitarian ideology that was the ruling ideology of South Korea under their 1st President, Rhee Syngman and later reformed & adopted by the 3rd President of South Korea, Park Chung-hee. He believes in creating a loyal and obedient citizenry through authoritarian administration, ethnic homogeneity and brazen appeals to  nationalism.

History
The term Ilminism is a Korean word meaning "One People Ideology (or principle)". The ideology emerged from the works of Korean philosopher Dr. An Ho-sang, who was the Minister of Education under The Rhee Syngman administration, and prior to his promotion studied at the University of Jena in Germany during the late 1920s. He made a case explaining why even though individual freedoms are important, the interests of the  South Korean Nation as a whole should be top priority especially considering the threat of the  North Korean aggressors overtaking them at the time. His suspicions proved to be correct, as even in current day the North constantly flaunts their nuclear power to taunt the   South.

Main Advocators & Practitioners
Rhee Syngman later developed & adapted the theoretical framework of the One-People Principle and made it much into the contemporary ideology used in his administration until his resignation in 1960, and later was reformed further and used under the Park Chung-hee administration for nearly 2 more decades after the 5.16.1961 Coup d'état. There were never really anymore practices of ethnic nationalism in Ilminism after Rhee's reign.

Park Chung-hee's reign included many aspects of Ilminist ideology, specifically including his highly controversial Yusin Constitution. It was an authoritarian constitution which gave the president (him) the executive ability to be judge, jury & executioner for laws, economic practices, political organizing, and many other things. It also created extremely nationalistic &  traditionalist sentiment, even going as far as cutting men's hair that was too long, and forcing women to wear skirts (if they chose to wear skirts) that were at least 17 centimetres above the knee. His fate was sealed in 1979 when he was assassinated during a dinner party.

It is heavily debated whether Chun Doo-hwan was truly a practitioner of the One-People Principle, but his staunch refusals to democratize the country & newly amended constitution that was heavily biased in favour of his own conservative political party made it clear that he was a major  authoritarian, and wanted to establish himself as a strongman leader. However, his reign ended when he resigned in 1987, and a newly democratic constitution was amended, thus ending the last remaining practices of Ilminism to this day.

Main Principles
The One-People Principle was based around a 4-point political program: Eliminating discrimination between the nobility and the  masses, the economic equalization of rich and poor through land reform & a well regulated  market economy, political equality between males & females, and an end to discrimination between North & South, including ending discrimination between the urban areas & the rural provinces.

He believes in an end to partisan politics, in favour of a united people behind a de facto one-party state.

Confucianism
Ilminism also believes heavily in Confucian philosophy & principles, including (but is not limited to) the moral & ethics of loyalty which have elements attributed to the western philosophy of the Great man theory, belief in the traditional family structure (a man, woman & X amount of children), and a deep respect for ceremony and Korean culture. An important thing to note is that Confucianism in Korea often refers to the specific denomination of Neo-Confucianism, a more secular & de-spiritualized form of Confucianism that stresses a more logical & practical view of traditional Confucian practices, making Neo-Confucianism a philosophy rather than a religion. This would allow for separate religious accommodations such as Dr. An Ho-sang being a Dangunist, and Rhee Syngman being a Christian despite simultaneously being a strong supporter of Confucianism.

Goals
The theoretical egalitarian underpinnings of Ilminism would be to herald a class-collaborating society under firm central leadership. In an Ilminist society, the upper and the lower classes would both work together to eventually rid themselves of materialism & class conflict entirely, in favour of a more spiritually balanced & fulfilled society.
