In this year marking the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, this article attempts to look closely into the significance of the Reformation in its intellectual and religious spirit, and to examine how it came into Korea in the closing years of the nineteenth century and evolved in her history, focusing on its fundamental religious and organizational character and its influence on forming citizens. First, I take a look at the foundational doctrine of sola scriptura, one of the often said ‘five solas,’ which assumed the transcendental authority stripping the existing order and the dominant system of its respective authority, and its ‘theology’ which brought about immense social transformation in European history. I then pay attention to the different characteristics of religious communities arisen after the Reformation, and to the ‘sect’ type which characterized the religious community in America, making use of the ‘church’-‘sect’ typology developed by Troeltsch and Weber, and emphasize the affinity of the ‘sect’ type of voluntary nature to democracy. Finally, I argue that the Protestant communities emerged as an alternative to the tradition and habits of Joseon society, and inculcated a new orientation of what may today be called ‘citizens’ and imparted the capacity and skills of public participation suitable to civic character. Protestant Christianity showed a rapid growth from the closing years of Joseon society to the early years of Japanese colonial rule, and its organizations spread all over the country where civic participation could be experienced and nurtured. This article will provide a historical- sociological clue to the question as to how ‘citizens’ were being shaped in Korea.
