Shedding light on contemporary Japanese society in an international
context, Japanese-Korean relations and modern day notions of a
multicultural Japan, this book addresses the broad notions and
questions of citizenship, identity, ethnicity and belonging through
investigation of Japan's Korean population (zainichi). Despite
zainichi Korean existence being integral to, and interwoven with,
recent Japanese social history, the debates and discussions of the
Korean community in Japan have been largely ignored. Moreover, as a
post colonial context, the zainichi Korean situation has drawn
scant attention and little investigation outside of Japan. In
Zainichi Korean Ethnicity and Identity David Chapman seeks to
redress this balance, engaging with recent discourse from within
Japan's Korean population. By taking a close look at how exclusion,
marginalisation and privilege work, the book brings insight into
the mechanisms of discrimination, and how discourse not only
marginalizes individuals and groups, but also how it can create
social change and enhance the sense of self. This book will be of
interest to students and scholars of Asian studies and of Japanese
and Korean politics, culture and society, but also to those with a
broader interest in migration studies and the study of identity and
ethnicity.
