Newcomers and Global Migration in Contemporary South Korea: Across National Boundaries examines the intersections of race, class, gender and inequalities in global migration in contemporary South Korea. The contributors explore South Korean migration policies and study diverse migrants living and working in South Korea as low-wage undocumented workers, refugees, Korean returnees, migrant women married to Korean men, and white professionals. The chapters in this collection make visible the differentiation and divergence of migration experiences due to race, class, gender, and place of origin, which are all also mediated by local inequalities in South Korea.

Sung-Choon Park teaches sociology at New York City College of Technology of the City University of New York. He is the author of Korean International Students and the Making of Racialized Transnational Elites.
Joong-Hwan Oh is professor of sociology at Hunter College of The City University of New York.
