Abstract: This work describes the unique character of Korean culture as it affects the organization of the modern workplace and the attitudes, behaviors and relationships within the workplace. This thesis focuses particularly on the electronic and Semi- conductor industry and the spirit of personal community. I trace the contemporary challenges to the spirit of personal community that have emerged with the introduction of modern culture.;This work describes the relationship between traditional Korean culture with its emphasis on personal community and modern industrial capitalism; it focuses not only on the challenge that capitalism presents to Korean culture, but also on the challenge that traditional culture presents to modern capitalism. Out of this clash, Korea is developing its own, new and unique form of social organization that draws on both Western and Eastern culture. However, this is not a settled and peaceful form but one that is in process and beset by many conflicts and contradictions.
