Anarchist Shinmin (1929-1932) also known as the Korean People’s Association in Manchuria and the Shinmin Korean People's Association was an autonomous anarchist zone in Manchuria near the Korean borderlands,[1] comprising of two million Korean migrants[2].
Shinmin formed as a result of close collaboration between the Korean Anarchist Federation in Manchuria and the Korean Anarcho-Communist Federation, a project aiming to create an independent self-governing cooperative system against Japanese imperialism.[3]
After the assassination of Kim Chwa-chin, the Anarchist Movement in Manchukuo and Korea became subject to massive repression.[4] Japan sent armies to attack Shinmin from the south, while the former allies, the Chinese Soviet Republic, attacked from the north. By the summer of 1932, Shinmin's most prominent anarchists were dead, and the war on two fronts was becoming untenable. Many anarchists soon went underground, and Shinmin ceased to exist as a distinct political entity.
