Thesis (Ph.D.)--Indiana University, 2007.

This dissertation demonstrates the pervasive connection between commerce and religion by examining the political economy governing shamanic practice on Cheju island, South Korea. Focusing on Cheju shamanism, I challenge a perceived dichotomy between materialism and religiosity and address a general conceptual unease about conjoining commerce and religion. Further, I argue that both the vilification and the popularity of shamanism throughout Korean history reflect the economic calculations of diverse social players.

520 $a This dissertation demonstrates the pervasive connection between commerce and religion by examining the political economy governing shamanic practice on Cheju island, South Korea. Focusing on Cheju shamanism, I challenge a perceived dichotomy between materialism and religiosity and address a general conceptual unease about conjoining commerce and religion. Further, I argue that both the vilification and the popularity of shamanism throughout Korean history reflect the economic calculations of diverse social players.
520 $a In order to relate phases of Cheju shamanism to the broader arena of political economy and religious discourse, Chapter One demonstrates how dominant groups have appropriated indigenous Cheju shamanism as a foil for their own hegemonic ideologies. Subsequent chapters provide ethnographic information and theoretical perspectives on how participants in a vernacular religion cope with drastic social changes in a modern capitalist society. While most studies of Cheju shamanism gloss over material facets of shamanism, shamans' clients sponsor ritual for specific purposes, including economic ones. Likewise, shamans understand rituals as economic transactions not only between themselves and their clients, but also between the invisible beneficiaries of the rituals and the human beings who offer the religious ceremonies. Their competence in communication with both visible and invisible agents, coupled with their spiritual inspiration, empowers rituals and affects people, even those who are ambivalent about shamans' worth. I also explore Cheju shamanism in the light of local, natural, and global political economies while focusing on claims of authenticity, rivalries between indigenous and migrant shamans, and the appropriation of shamanism in local festivals during the 2002 World Cup soccer tournament.
520 $a By means of socio-historical research, ethnographic fieldwork, and analysis of a wide variety of communicative forms, this research suggests that in Cheju shamanism material exchange is not only an integral part of religious practice, but it is crucial to ritual success. My discourse-centered methods and analysis reveal that economic exchange has long been at the heart of shamanic practice: it is a key concern of multiple actors, including gods, shamans, clients, spirits, the state, and political elites. On Cheju Island, the sacred and the commercial are neither mutually exclusive nor incompatible.
