Abstract

This book focuses on the discussion surrounding the migration and settlement of Koreans within the Korean diaspora in the former Soviet region, a topic that has persisted historically and is ongoing. It is important to thoroughly examine the historical characteristics of these groups, the social changes they have experienced, and the characteristics of their host country or society when discussing this topic. These groups have traditionally responded to the assimilation policies put in place by Imperial Russia, the Soviet Union, and the former Soviet states as members of ethnic minority populations. Moreover, their identities have become increasingly varied as a direct result of these experiences. Furthermore, these groups are currently in the process of resettling in their ancestral territories. Moreover, globalization has contributed to the expansion of their diasporas’ geographic scope. The aggregation of diverse migration experiences has influenced the migration trends of future generations. These factors are crucial elements that should be taken into account in the discourse on their migration and settlement. It is crucial to carefully assess these elements in relation to their integration or coexistence within the host society. This endeavor is essential for fostering integration, coexistence, and diversity in an increasingly complex and diverse society, as it can facilitate understanding of the different groups within that society.
