China's Korean Minority. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, Oct 2008, Pages: 72
Until the early 90s, Chinese Koreans maintained
their Korean culture, language, traditions, and
lineage based on kinship relations. Contrary to many
scholars' predictions that the growing interaction
with South Koreans would help Korean ethnics develop
a minority community in China while preserving their
own language and culture, Yu's research reveals that
a crisis of dissolution has developed among Chinese
Koreans and that the Korean minority in China is
assimilating to Chinese society ever more rapidly.
This book focuses on how Chinese economic reforms
and interaction with South Koreans have brought
change to the Korean ethnic minority in China's
northeast and helped to affirm the Korean ethnic
minority’s identity as Chinese Koreans. Social
scientists or anyone interested in studies on China
or East Asia, ethnic minority studies, cultural and
linguistic preservation, migration, or political
economy will find this study useful.
