While both Japan and Korea share a common feature as ethnic nations undergirded by strong ethnonational identity, the imagining of the boundary of nation shows significant difference when examining the relationship between the homeland and their overseas population. In the case of Korea, the boundary of nation is often imagined beyond the Korean peninsula, embracing the expatriate communities and groups within the boundary of broader Korean national community as an integral part of the nation, which is expressed through the legal and official language as \u2018<em>Jaeoe dongpo<\/em> (overseas brethren)\u2019. In the case of Japan, however, such a broad imagination did not take root. Taking this difference in \u2018national belonging\u2019 as a starting point of the inquiry, this study attempts to trace back the historical development of the relationship between the homeland and the expatriates in Japan and Korea respectively, and examine how such relationship has been formed and transformed and reflected at each important historical junctures by the homeland state, in order to understand the different manifestation of ethnic conception of nationhood in the most ethnically defined nation-states.<\/p>\n<h4>\u25a0Coordinator<\/h4>\n<p>Naoyuki UMEMORI (Professor, Faculty of Political Science and Economics)<\/p>\n<p>Manuel YANG (Junior Researcher, ORIS)<\/p>\n<h4>\u25a0Language<\/h4>\n<p>English<\/p>\n<h4>\u25a0Audience<\/h4>\n<p>Students, faculty, staff and general public<\/p>\n<h4>\u25a0Admission<\/h4>\n<p>Free<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u25a0Date &amp; Time Monday,\u00a0January 15, 2018\/ 18:15\uff5e19:45 \u25a0Venue Room 960, Bldg.#14, Waseda Campus \u25a0Lecturer Lee, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":2865,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[83,101],"class_list":["post-3058","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en","tag-events-en","tag-en-ga"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3058","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3058"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3058\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2865"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3058"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3058"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3058"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
