Economic growth continued after Park's death and the country eventually democratized. Later presidents included his daughter [[Park Geun-hye]] as well as people arrested under Park's regime. Park is a controversial figure in modern South Korean political discourse and among the South Korean populace in general for his dictatorship and undemocratic ways. While some credit him for sustaining the Miracle on the Han River, which reshaped and modernized South Korea, others criticize his authoritarian way of ruling the country (especially after 1971) and for prioritizing economic growth and contrived social order at the expense of civil liberties. | Economic growth continued after Park's death and the country eventually democratized.
