The dissertation will provide a constructive Christian social ethical framework for networking collective memories of social movements—so that we can emancipate current democracy from the social and structural sin of racial violence, colonialism, sexism, and intersectional domination—to cultivate our collective flourishing. By examining ethical possibilities and tensions in networking counter-memories transnationally and cross-culturally, the dissertation explores a way to facilitate emancipatory democratic vision foregrounded by feminist and womanist theological ethics. Drawing from my original case study, my dissertation proposes that a transnational and cross-cultural approach to social movements’ memories can help Christian social ethics facilitate alternative social imaginaries for emancipating democracy from social sin towards wholistic participation in salvational journey. While unpacking the importance of democracy in Christian ethics, the role of collective memory in political agency, and the counter-memory method in relation to womanist and Asian and Asian American feminists, the dissertation is grounded in the case study of the cross-cultural counter-memory of the succession of the pro-democracy movement in South Korea of the 1980s to the United States, with particular attention to the multifaceted influence of Christianity and religion.
