The contributors cover a wide range of topics, including: * the legal and social status of Koreans in Japan* the history of Korean colonial displacement and postcolonial division during the Cold War* ethnic education* women's self-expression.These studies serve to reveal the highly resilient and diverse reality of this minority group, whilst simultaneously highlighting the fact that - despite recent improvement - legal, social and economic constraints continue to exist in their lives.
