영문 초록

University students in neoliberalism are focusing on building their specification by regarding elitism and ranking systems as fair. In a state of anxiety and fear, they do not perceive discrimination and hatred against others as significant problems. In this reality, the role of university education is more important than ever. Thus, numerous efforts have recently been made to recognize empathy education at universities. However, the specific system of empathy education should be developed. This study examined a case of general education. In the “Reading classics and writing” class in E University, students read a Korean novel entitled “Dwarf.” Then, they discussed and wrote their reviews of the book, focusing on the right to the city as a theoretical social science concept. Students understood the context of the Korean urban social structure and empathized with the suffering of the characters, showing their awareness and practice of the rights to the city. The results of this study suggest the following: First, it is necessary to diversify the goal of writing education as general education in the future. Second, through the convergence of social science and general education, we can solve current social problems and portray an inclusive society. Third, the need for empathy education must be expanded to public and civic education. In the future, the way we coexist will depend on the institutional education system regarding empathy, professors’ educational philosophy, and students’ beliefs in the power of empathy.
