『사상계』와 세계문화자유회의 1950-1960년대 냉전 이데올로기의 세계적 연쇄와 한국

Abstract

By examining Sasanggye, one of the most important journals throughout the 1950s and 1960s, I tries to grasp the mode and degree of influence from global circulation of the cold war ideology. Towards such goal, a comprehensive list of translated articles was created and the task of tracing the original author, source and initial date of publication was attempted. The most popular names and titles from the list of source authors and magazines(books and newspapers are excluded here) are as follows: B.Russell, S.Hook, A.Camus, S.Maugham, B.Moore, W.W.Rostow, A.Toynbee, A.Schlesinger Jr., K.Jaspers, K.Gibran, E.Brunner, and Foreign Politics, Encounter, Saturday Review, World Politics, New Leader, Current History, Harper’s. I’d like to incept the titles of non-English magazines such as N.R.F., Preuves, Der Monat, Merkur, Tempo Presente, Prezeglad Kulturalny, Possev. Most of those names are related to the congress for cultural freedom(1950-1967) which was built to advocate the value of liberty and to attack on the spread of totalitarianism. Congress for cultural freedom(C.C.F.) was a creation to form the America-dominated solidarity among intellectuals across the Atlantic, and its core was the cultural hegemony of ‘free world’ in the age of cold war. Sasanggye was participating in such a global sequence of cold war ideology, and exhausted its intellectual vitality in the course of cold war liberalism.
