This collection defines Koreatowns as spatial configurations that concentrate elements of “Korea” demographically, economically, politically, and culturally. The contributors provide exploratory accounts and critical evaluations of Koreatowns in different countries throughout the world. Ranging from familiar settings such as Los Angeles and New York City, to more unfamiliar locales such as Singapore, Beijing, Mexico, U.S.-Mexico borderlands, and the American Midwest, this collection not only examines the social characteristics and contours of these spaces, but also the types of discourses and symbols that they exude.

The contributors provide exploratory accounts and critical evaluations of Koreatowns in different countries throughout the world.

This volume explores the analogous and heterogeneous nature of Koreatowns throughout the globe, challenging the LA-NYC based ethnic-entrepreneurial discourse that dominates the narratives of the Korean diaspora.
