About The Book:
"Nation, Citizenship, and Multiculturalism in East Asia" by Sungmoon Kim provides a profound analysis of the evolution of East Asian societies as they confront the challenges of multiculturalism, nationalism, and democracy. Since the late 1980s, many East Asian countries have undergone significant shifts, increasingly embracing multiculturalism while also grappling with nationalism and its persistent influence on their political, social, and cultural landscapes.
This book delves into the re-envisioning of nations, the restructuring of citizenship, and the complex relationship between Confucianism, nationalism, and cosmopolitanism. It explores how countries like China, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Hong Kong have responded to the challenges of multiculturalism, reinterpreting their constitutional frameworks, immigration policies, labor laws, and social welfare systems.
Key Themes:
-
Multiculturalism vs Nationalism: How these forces interact and shape modern East Asian societies.
-
Confucianism & Nationalism: Examining the role of Confucianism in the rise of nationalism and its interplay with cosmopolitanism.
-
Globalization's Impact: How globalization has transformed nationalism in countries like South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and China.
-
Democracy & Indigenous Cultures: The role of democracy in revitalizing indigenous cultures in Taiwan.
-
Social Relevance & Theoretical Context: Provides fresh perspectives and frameworks relevant to understanding modern East Asia.
This book is a critical read for scholars and students in the fields of political science, sociology, Asian studies, and international relations, offering insightful analyses of nationhood, citizenship, and social harmony within the multicultural context of East Asia.
