8.6 South Korea
South Korea’s Saemaul Undong, or New Village Movement, was a rural development initiative launched in the 1970s that incorporated distributist principles. The program encouraged local communities to take charge of their own development, providing resources and support for community-led infrastructure projects, agricultural modernization, and income generation. The Saemaul Undong is widely credited with contributing to South Korea’s rapid economic growth and rural poverty reduction during this period.
