An essential dimension of why one becomes an immigrant is based on
a quest for identities - who one is, whom one wants to be, and how
one wants to live. There is much in common between immigrants of
the past and immigrants today in terms of what they seek through
diasporic life. However, one key difference relates to how they
express the processes of searching for their identities. This book
illuminates the ways in which Korean immigrants in Australia
express their identities through autobiographies, novels, church
websites, and popular weekly magazines. Korean Diaspora and Media
in Australia also examines the role of the Korean immigrant church
in contributing to the formation of transnational identities. Han's
in-depth analysis is informed by the concepts of reflexivity and
internal conversation from a tradition of critical realism.
Internal conversation is enabled through human reflexivity (the
regular application of mental ability) and is the process for
individual agents to work out their best reactions to social
conditions. Han carefully explains this process and thoughtfully
applies it to the Korean community's search for identities in
Australia.
