Description

Explore the complex relationship between identity and mental health in this academic study from the Routledge Contemporary Japan Series. Using a qualitative, interview-based approach, Kim examines how social marginalization and conflicting identities impact the well-being of the ethnic Korean minority living in Japan. This book investigates the specific social background of the Zainichi community, who are largely descendants of immigrants from the colonial period. The research addresses a significant social issue: why Zainichi Koreans experience a higher suicide rate than native Japanese populations or other ethnic groups within Japan. By focusing on life stories, this work provides a deep look into the psychological effects of living between two cultures without feeling fully part of either. It is an essential resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, or the history of Japanese Korean minorities.
