Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: This paper examines how the policies and politics of citizenship shaped the collective identities of Korean communities in Japan and the United States. Rather than a top-down analysis of citizenship policies at the level of the state alone, I apply an interactive approach that considers the various dimensions and multiple levels of citizenship. Despite similarities in time period, country of origin, and labor composition, Korean migration to Japan and the United States from the late nineteenth century to the present has produced strikingly different communities. In Japan, over 90 percent of the Korean population were born in Japan and show few signs of maintaining a strong Korean socio-cultural identity through the traditional indicators of language, education, and marriage. At the same time, because only 30 percent of the population have naturalized in the past 30 years, resident Koreans make up Japan's largest foreign community. In the United States, Koreans made up the fourth largest Asian American group by 2000 and continue to be one of the least diversified Asian Pacific American populations in terms of birthplace, language, and outmarriage. While over 70 percent of the population was foreign-born in 1990, over 35 percent had naturalized by this time. Hence, Korean migration to Japan and the United States has resulted in a highly assimilated, structurally foreign Korean community in Japan and a linguistically and culturally distinct, structurally incorporated Korean community in the United States.
