Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | Since the nineteenth century, ethnic Koreans have represented a small yet significant portion of the population of the Russian Far East, but until now, the phenomenon has been largely understudied. Based on extensive historical and ethnographic research, this is the first book in English to chart the contemporary social life of Koreans in the complex borderland region. Dispelling the commonly held notion that Koreans were completely removed from the region during the country?s attempt to ?cleanse? its borders in 1937, Hyun Gwi Park reveals timely new insights into the historical and current experiences of Koreans living along the Eurasian frontier.0 The history of 'the Korean question' and border-making in the Russian Far East -- Repatriating to the Russian Far East, confronting the transition -- Living Soviet socialism the Korean way: mobile agriculture at the border of socialism -- Greenhouse society: the subsistence economy and house-holding -- Recalling history: Koreiskii Dom, transnational connections, and diaspora politics |
