Description
This book offers a critical examination of the migration and settlement of Koreans in the former Soviet region, situating the Koryo Saram within the broader context of the Korean diaspora.
Tracing their complex history from Imperial Russia through the Soviet era and into the present, Jinhye Lee investigates how policies of assimilation, socio-political transformations, and shifting geopolitical landscapes have shaped their identities and mobility. Lee brings the Koryo Saram from the margins to the center of diaspora studies by foregrounding the diversity of their experiences and examining their integration within host societies. Through in-depth analysis, the book offers insights into the challenges and possibilities of coexistence in increasingly pluralistic settings, while contributing a valuable case study of migration and integration that proposes a broader framework for understanding diasporic identity and promoting diversity in contemporary societies.
