대한민국 임시정부의 민주의식: 대한민국 임시헌법을 중심으로

The provisional government of Korea was established on the basis of the principle of building a democratic republic state based on the people’s sovereignty aggregated by the Great Unity Declaration. The grand principles of the democratic republic system as well as the right to equality, freedom, and suffrage as basic rights of the people were specified. With the spread of national equality in the 1930s, the idea of equality based on tri-equality did not stop at the relationship between individuals and individuals, but also progressed to equality between national and national countries. Members of the provisional government regarded the history of national self-determination and the globalization of ‘democracy’ as the ‘general trend of the times’ specified in the March 1st Movement in 1919 as common sense. The declaration of war against Japan announced in 1941 shows the international recognition of the provisional government. In diplomatic relations with allies including the United States and the United Kingdom, the provisional government assumed its role as a democratic government that would share the victory of the ‘democratic camp’. And based on this, the provisional government requested the approval of the provisional government as a coalition state. The provisional government’s approval efforts were not only achieved by achieving practical ‘independence’, but were made based on the recognition that they shared the ranks of historical development. The provisional government acquired a sense of ‘democratic’ as the goal of global history development and realized it.
