Established in 1982, the British Association for Korean Studies has published nine sets of Papers in the period 1991–2004 – the outcome of conferences, study days and workshops. The themes of Korea past and Korea present were selected to give the editors and BAKS council the widest choice of options in terms of scholarship, subject-matter and interest. Among the Papers included are:

  • James Huntley Grayson: ‘Reverse syncretism and the sacred area of Muak-tong: the accommodation of Korean folk religion to the religious forms of Buddhism’ (Vol. 3, 1992)
  • J.E.Hoare: ‘The British community in Korea: the colonial period 1910–1942’ (Vol.7, 2000)
  • Keith Howard: ‘Why should Korean shamans be women?’ (Vol.1, 1991)
  • Yeonok Jang: ‘Reappraisal of the origins of p’ansori’ (Vol.7, 2000)
  • Ian Nish: ‘John McLeavy Brown in Korea’ (Vol.2, 1992)
  • Henrik Sorensen: ‘“Protecting the nation”: Korean Buddhism under the rule of Park Hung Hee, 1961–79’ (Vol.9, 2004)
  • Jaehoon Yeon: ‘How different is Pyongyang speech from Seoul speech?’ (Vol.7, 2000)
