16. Ironically, Fields himself points to the importance of legitimacy in the South Korean context. In explaining why a gradual shift from state dominance over the chaebol to a relationship of symbiosis took place in the 1980s, Fields argues that “the Chun regime that followed Park's rule, and to a lesser extent the Roh and current Kim governments as well, have lacked legitimacy when coming to power …” Fields, Enterprise and the State 48 48
