4·16세월호참사 10년, 애도의 정치 - 비당사자 운동을 중심으로

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study focuses on the non-victims movement, which was the subject of social mourning and an important driving force of the 4·16 Sewol Ferry Disaster(hereafter 4·16) movement, in light of the 10th anniversary of the tragedy, and attempts to interpret the solidarity movements of citizens (society) have shown over the past 10 years from the perspective of the “politics of mourning.” In <BR/>addition, the victim-hatred that emerged after April 16 has been repeated in the ‘Itaewon Disaster of October 29’, and so on, so I seek alternatives to overcome this problem. Where does the power of citizens, who have stayed the victims’ side for 10 years supported the victims over the past 10 years and have voluntarily carried out their duties despite of non-victims, come from? It can be interpreted as the politics of mourning that desire to be faithful to the victims and their bereaved families by uncovering the truth about 4·16. The ethics of the 4·16 movement were ‘memory’ in the early days of the disaster, but ‘promise’ has emerged as a new ethic in the current situation where truth-finding and the punishment of those responsible have failed through the national investigative committee. Citizens not only mourned victims of 4·16 and sought to uncover the truth about 4·16, but also accepted it as a promise and responsibility that they had to keep to create a ‘safe, peaceful, and just society’ free from violence, inequality, and disaster in order to protect the ‘lives of children’ who are being born and growing up. Meanwhile, in order to confront the problem of victim-hatred that is accumulating in the economy and repeating itself in history, this study suggests that the practical strategy lies in marginalizing hate speech and listening to the stories of more victims, thereby changing the surface of our bodies.
