Description
Summary:This article focusing on Korean immigrant cultural transnationalism has three major objectives. First, it provides a conceptual clarification of different components of immigrant cultural transnationalism. Second, it provides a discussion of how to measure different components of immigrant cultural transnationalism. Finally, it analyzes transnational cultural events organized in the Korean community in the New York-New Jersey area and South Korea based on a content analysis of articles published in two Korean language dailies in the local Korean community in 2001 and 2014. This study makes a significant contribution to immigrant cultural transnationalism, so much neglected by transnational scholars.
