Lives of Young Koreans in Japan
by Yasunori Fukuoka
|
 |
In this highly important study, leading sociologist
Yasunori Fukuoka examines the life experiences and identity formation of
young third-generation Korean migrants in Japan, using the results of
150 in-depth interviews. His study shows that these young people are
distinctively different both from mainland Koreans and from majority
Japanese. Lives of Young Koreans in Japan depicts their struggles to
avoid and resist Japanese racism, the deep wounds and inner conflicts
that result from those struggles, and the complex ethnic identity that
emerges in the process.
