dc.description.abstract | This article attempts to explore the evolution of Korean foreign labor policies over the last 20 years through the interplay of three national goals: economic interest, human rights concern, and national/cultural identity preservation. Placing the Korean experience in a comparative framework with particular attention to the issue of national/cultural identity preservation, this article asks two interrelated questions: (1) Did/does the politics of societal (in)security exist in Korea? (2) If so, what have the Korean government's responses to this challenge been? Were/are they similar to or different from those of advanced states? Reflective of the so-called "convergence" hypothesis observed by Cornelius and Tsuda, the second question particularly aims at explicating the Korean government's macro and/or micro immigration policies related to societal (in)security from a comparative perspective. This article introduces specific, testable hypotheses (regarding governmental policies toward societal (in)security) and demonstrates that, although the politics of societal (in)security is relatively nascent and emerging, a significant degree of congruence is observed between the Korean government's policies and those of advanced states. | - |
