Cross-Border Interactions and Encounters between Germany and Korea undertakes a comprehensive exploration of the relatively under-represented dimensions of cross-border encounters and interactions between Germany and Korea from an interdisciplinary perspective. It extends beyond traditional areas of study, such as diplomatic and economic exchanges, to encompass both historical and recent phenomena resulting from their interactions through migration, classical and popular culture, literature, media representation, and academia. Contributors address topics such as Korean migration in Germany, Korean culture in Germany, media representation of each culture by the other country, the impact of German culture in Korea, the development of Korean Studies in Germany, and the history of German Studies in Korea. By shedding light on the multifaceted and diverse dimensions of Korea and Germany’s relationship, the volume offers fresh perspectives and valuable insights into Korean-German relations. Published at a time when globalization and international relations are attracting increasing attention in both academia and mainstream media, with only a limited number of academic publications that examine bilateral or unilateral relations between Korea and a European country, this book effectively addresses significant gaps in the fields of both German and Korean studies.
Since the beginning of Korean migration to Argentina in the 1960s, Korean immigrants in Argentina have massively been involved in the garment industry. Nevertheless, despite the decades-long concentration of Korean Argentines in the same sector, the motivations behind their involvement and the types and styles of their businesses have been reshaped over time through the twists and turns of the host country's junctures. Applying rigorous immigrant entrepreneurship theories, yet wary of orthodoxies, Kim examines the intriguing paths which Korean entrepreneurs have taken to develop their businesses in the Argentine garment industry amidst complex, frantically volatile social and economic circumstances, and argues for the application of a new approach that combines existing theories with historically contextual perspectives. Unlike those of their North American counterparts, the history, settlement, and current status of Korean immigrants in Latin America have been notoriously under-examined. Thus, this unique case-study on Korean immigrant entrepreneurship in Latin America substantially contributes to bridging the gap between the North and the South and represents a significant milestone in the fields of both migration and Korean studies.
