Good cooperation relationship between Indonesia and South Korea gives high impact on the migration from Indonesia to South Korea temporarily or permanently which affect the usage of the language by the user or referred as Indonesian expatriates in South Korea. In this article, the usage of languages, language shift, and language retention of the Indonesian expatriates in South Korea are described. The method used in this study is a qualitative method. Data collected by listening to two different media, namely interviews and social networking Facebook. The research subjects were Indonesian expatriates in South Korea, such as workers (TKI-Indonesian Workers), students, and intermarrying Indonesia-Korea families in Korea. The object of this study is the usage of mother tounge, then analyzed by using qualitative methods through sociolinguistic theory and reported descriptively. The results showed two groups of language usage, multilingual and monolingual groups. In the case of migrants or expatriates who are part of intermarrying families, there are three models of language retention. The first model, there is retention of mother tounge (b1) in addition to the usage of the Korean language (b2), and the Indonesian as the third language (b3). All three languages are used according to the situation and condition. The local language retention was found in the second model (b1 without Indonesian language, so using the mother tounge and Korean languages only. In the last model, the speaker who is a mother didn’t teach the mother tounge to their children. She tends to be monolingual, only the Korean language.Keywords: retention of mother tounge, expatriates, South Korea

Abstract: Despite its ambition to tap into global talent, South Korea has been struggling to scout and facilitate the migration of professional migrants. This study investigates the migration trajectory of Indonesian expatriates and how they successfully achieve labor market insertion in South Korea. It focuses on the mobility routes of migrants to become highly skilled workers: their motivation, the ways they migrate, and elaborates on how migrants from a developing country enhance their likelihood of getting hired. Nine professionals from the under-researched group were interviewed to uncover a range of migration trajectories and its relationship with employment prospects. The findings suggest that ethnic identity is crucial to improve the labor market outcome, which indicates an exclusive and ethnicized labor market in Korea.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose – Working in the Middle East used to be a “must-have” experience in the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) industry. However, these days, millennials are not willing to accept such assignments. By adopting expectancy theory, this study explores the antecedents causing their reluctance.
Design/Methodology/Approach – We adopt consensual qualitative research method with 21 in-depth interviews of expatriates with working experience in the Middle East from three EPC companies in South Korea. In particular, our study covers expatriates working in Qatar, Morocco, Algeria, Oman, Iraq, and Kuwait, which are rarely studied in the existing literature.
Findings – We find that millennial expatriates are sensitive to harsh working environments that lead to limitations in their personal lives. Our study also shows that millennials perceive the reward as too low, especially when compared to expatriates in other countries or those at headquarters. Furthermore, they think working in the Middle East is not helpful to their future career.
Research Implications – South Korean EPC companies should identify the characteristics of these millennials and make adjustments to current HR practices, such as pay raises and career support. Allowances for long-term employees in remote parts of the Middle East should also be increased. It is necessary to give extra points to promotion for those who have worked in secluded areas.

The purpose of this study is to understand expatriate educators’ overall teaching experiences and opinions about living in South Korea. The research study sought to explore the relationship between stressors and social biases against Black individuals and their suicidal behaviours and turnover decisions. The approach of stress, burnout, career decision, and suicide guided this study as the lens. The research method for this study included a phenomenological analysis of two sessions of semi-structured interviews with 18 Black expatriates in the field of education in South Korea. The results indicate that their experiences were impacted by unfairness against individuals based on their skin colour and nationalities. The outcomes of this study highlight the major difficulties experienced by foreign professionals living in South Korea. They can be used by human resource professionals, school administrators, and government leaders to reform their current policy and improve expatriate experiences so as to prevent turnover.

Full textAbstract:
The globalization process occurring in various countries demands cultural acculturation and leadership models and styles at the global workplace or at the company level. Various cultures that have significantly entered Indonesia include Chinese and South Korean cultures, mainly because these companies have invested in Indonesia. This research aims to determine the leadership styles of Korean-Chinese expatriates and local managers in multinational companies PT. X, PT. Y, and PT. Z when facing issues related to individual culture, personality, behavior, and differing beliefs, as well as when understanding the problems faced by Korean-Chinese expatriate leaders and local managers within multinational companies PT. X, PT. Y, and PT. Z in Indonesia. Based on the data analysis presented, it can be concluded that the cross-cultural leadership style of expatriates in PT. X, PT. Y, and PT. Z is employee-centered (democratic). The leadership style applied by expatriates in PT. X and local managers from PT. Y is seen in decision-making, leader roles, and delegation of authority. The role of expatriate leaders is performed by providing control in completing employee tasks, directing and controlling employees, and constantly monitoring the progress of assigned tasks to ensure they are completed quickly to achieve the company's targets, which are common goals at PT. X, PT. Y, and PT. Z.

Full textAbstract:
PurposeThe support of host country nationals (HCNs) is a key determinant of expatriate adjustment and performance. The purpose of this paper is to explore underlying motivations for their support to expatriates. Previous research has shown that HCNs with pro-social motivation are more likely to help expatriates. Drawing upon motivated information processing in groups (MIP-G) theory, the authors test whether epistemic motivation moderates the observed relationship between pro-social motivation and HCNs’ support toward expatriates.Design/methodology/approachThe authors ran two correlational studies (N = 267) in the USA (Study 1) and South Korea (Study 2). Across two studies, epistemic motivation and social motivation were measured using their multiple proxies validated in previous research. The authors also measured HCNs’ willingness to offer role information and social support to a hypothetical expatriate worker.FindingsResults lend support to our hypotheses that pro-social HCNs are more willing than pro-self HCNs to provide role information and social support to the expatriates, but this occurs only when they have high rather than low epistemic motivation.Originality/valueThe current paper contributes the literature on HCNs helping expatriates by qualifying the prior results that a pro-social motivation (e.g. agreeableness and collectivism) increases the willingness of HCNs to help expatriates. As hypothesized, this study found that that case is only true when HCNs have high, rather than low, epistemic motivation. Also, previous research on MIP-G theory has mainly focused on the performance of small groups (e.g. negotiation, creativity and decision-making). To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this research is the first attempt to test MIP-G theory in the context of HCNs helping expatriates.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose – The family and specifically, the partners of expatriates are unfortunately the major cause of expatriate maladjustment. Drawing from and extending the concept of relational demography, the purpose of this paper is to examine the influence of the nationality of expatriates’ partners, conceptualized as host, home or third country nationality, on expatriates’ cross-cultural adjustment. Design/methodology/approach – Survey data from 299 expatriate academics in China, Japan and South Korea were analysed. The authors used confirmatory factor analyses to validate the scales and ANCOVA to test the hypotheses. To further understand the interactions effects the authors conducted simple slopes analysis. Findings – Results show that differences in expatriate academics’ cross-cultural adjustment are not per se based on the different nationality of their partners, but are mainly due to an interaction effect of partner nationality and length of stay in host country. Expatriates with host country national partners perceived the highest increase in cross-cultural adjustment over time, followed by those with third country national partners, whereas those with home country partners did not experience any increase in cross-cultural adjustment. Research limitations/implications – The study was based on a cross-sectional survey of expatriate academics in Asia. Thus, longitudinal, multisource data from various contexts would increase validity and generalizability of findings. Despite these limitations, the study provided new and intriguing findings. The theory and empirical evidence underscore the importance of expatriate partner nationality and thereby, relational demography between expatriate partners and expatriates. Practical implications – The research aims to emphasize the important role that expatriate partners can play concerning the success of expatriate cross-cultural adjustment. Greater attention should be paid to the adjustment processes of expatriates and their partners to facilitate expatriate cross-cultural adjustment. Originality/value – The authors are among the first to study the influence of nationality, conceptualized as host, home country or third country nationality, of expatriates’ partners on expatriates’ cross-cultural adjustment by applying the concept of relational demography. Moreover, the authors look at the role that time in the host country has on the partner’s influence on expatriate adjustment.

Full textAbstract:
Although the movement of individuals across national boundaries is not a new phenomenon, the extent and complexity of expatriation and international mobility has intensified in recent decades. Studies which have examined the challenges faced by expatriates have consistently highlighted that individuals who live and work in unfamiliar cross-cultural environments tend to experience expatriate failure and to
underperform; often leading to detrimental financial and non-financial effects for both expatriates and organisations. While it has been argued that organisationally-provided cross-cultural training (CCT) and support can assist in minimising expatriate failure and its effects, much of this research has primarily focused on organisationally-assigned expatriates (OAEs). The current research extends prior studies by examining the logistical and cross-cultural self-preparation of self-initiated expatriates (SIEs). SIEs
comprise a large and significant cohort of expatriates who, unlike OAEs, independently and voluntarily relocate abroad to live and work. Little is known about the selfpreparation (activities undertaken independently and voluntarily to assist in living and working in another culture) that expatriates in general or SIEs, in particular, undertake.Thesis (PhD Doctorate)

Full textAbstract:
Nous cherchons à identifier les défis des expatriés français installés en Corée du Sud face aux spécificités de la culture locale coréenne, et en particulier aux nouvelles normes d'aujourd'hui dans le monde du travail insufflées par les changements sociaux actuels et la jeune génération en Corée. La Corée présente des singularités fortes pour les expatriés français installés en Corée, et l'un des grands défis consiste à considérer la culture locale et à s'y adapter. Cette thèse vise essentiellement à comprendre l'influence de la culture coréenne sur l'adaptation des expatriés français en contexte local et les défis de leur adaptation interculturelle dans le pays d'accueil. Nous nous interrogerons sur la manière dont les expatriés français interprètent leurs expériences en Corée et comment ils envisagent les rapports au travail des Coréens. En même temps, cette étude s'intéresse plutôt au croisement des deux perspectives culturelles des expatriés français et des collègues locaux, nous observerons comment chacun se représente ces deux côtés et interprète mutuellement les modes de travail et les comportements selon le contexte culturel propre à chacun. À ce jour, les rapports au travail en Corée sont en pleine évolution en corrélation avec l'arrivée progressive dans l'entreprise de la nouvelle génération. Mais face à cette évolution socioculturelle de la société coréenne, la vision française ne reflète pas les normes culturelles des Coréens en transformation. Cette recherche se structure autour de deux volets : interculturel et intergénérationnel, prenant ainsi en compte les évolutions des rapports au travail insufflées par la jeune génération. Le but de cette thèse est d'apporter un regard nouveau dans les approches interculturelles en combinant les problématiques interculturelles et intergénérationnelles. En mettant en relation ces deux différents axes, cette thèse vise à comprendre comment les perspectives croisées peuvent influencer l'adaptation des expatriés français au travail en CoréeOur research seeks to identify the challenges encountered by French expatriates living in South Korea when adapting to the local culture, particularly the new standards of today's working environment inspired by sociocultural changes and Korea's younger generation. French expatriates have found it difficult to adapt effectively to local cultures and traditions, making it one of the great challenges they face. In this context, this thesis aims to understand the influence of Korean culture on the adaptation of French expatriates and the challenges of their intercultural adaptation to the host country. We will investigate how French expatriates perceive their experiences in Korea and what they think of Koreans' approach to work. At the same time, this study is interested in the intersections of the two cultural perspectives of French expatriates and local employees. We will observe how each group represents these perspectives and mutually interprets practices, working methods, and behaviors according to their own specific cultural contexts. However, work values, attitudes, and behaviors in the Korean workplace are rapidly changing due to the new generation entering the workforce. Despite this sociocultural transformation of Korean society, the perspective of French expatriates does not reflect the changing characteristics of the Korean workforce. This research is therefore structured around two points: intercultural and intergenerational, taking into account the changes in job attitudes accelerated by the younger generation. The aim of this thesis is to bring a new perspective to intercultural approaches by combining intercultural and intergenerational issues. By relating these two different points, this thesis aims to understand how the intersection of such perspectives can influence the adaptation of French expatriates working in Korea

The global phenomenon known as the Hallyu, or the Korean Wave, has brought Korean pop culture to every corner of the Internet. In this paper, I discuss the impact Hallyu has had in France specifically and examine the online subculture of female-created fanfiction that has arisen from it. I postulate that, for a French woman, the act of participating in fandom and/or writing slash fanfiction about Korean pop idols constitutes a political act of rebellion against the patriarchy and gender norms, even if the fan herself is unaware of it.

Following theHarrod, Prebisch, Kaldor and Thirlwall analysis, we identified the existence of astructural constraint to growth, as a result of the particular foreign trade dynamic inthe less advanced economies (demand for imports vs. demand for exports). Weexamined the different theoretical models that formalize such restriction and, weelaborated a Thirlwall's Law empirical test in five emerging economies (Brazil,Colombia, Singapore, South Korea and Malaysia).In the second part, the thesis examines the structural change process in South Koreaand Colombia, in order to understand how these countries, have deal with thisrestriction and how it has impacted their long-term economic growth.

Full textAbstract:
Worldwide Women Writers in Paris brings together a variety of authors who are a part of a phenomenon of new writing by women in French. These individuals, all eighteen of whom hail from outside the hexagonal borders of France, have chosen to take up residence in the French capital and compose literary works in French. Whether they were born in Algeria, Hungary, India, Mauritius, South Korea, or elsewhere, these women writers are contributing to a transformation in the Francophone literary landscape through stylistic and thematic innovations that have emerged in part from their differing experiences and varying itineraries. Despite their divergences, these women have much in common, especially when it comes to the way they are continually perceived as foreigners in the location they have adopted as home. Even those who enjoy the greatest international renown for their publications in French are constantly reminded within France that they are not originally from this nation, and this emphasis on their foreign origins may have contributed to keeping them at a remove from the recognition they deserve in French letters. It is, however, becoming more difficult to ignore a growing collective corpus revealing ever greater creativity and wielding ever more influence. These authors are not content simply to compose complicated texts, but they are also actively involved in the formulation of complex publishing profiles that reveal movement and diversity. This result is nothing less than a literary revolution, and it is time to celebrate it.

AbstractGiven the deadlock in the current negotiations between Germany and Italy and the unavailability of judicial remedies for the victims, the two states could set up a reparation scheme. This chapter sketches some of the main features of such a hypothetical scheme, considering existing internal or international arrangements in the context of transitional justice (the Foundation ‘Remembrance, Responsibility and Future’ (Erinnerung, Verantwortung und Zukunft) scheme; the Australian DART scheme; the deal between Japan and South Korea on reparations to ‘comfort women’; the US/French schemes for reparations and restitution to holocaust victims; the Eritrea/Ethiopia reparations scheme; and the Iraq/Kuwait scheme). In particular, the emphasis is on the system of identification of the eligible victims, the question of financing and the fate of pending and future judicial claims. Assuming the states’ willingness to explore this project, the chapter outlines some of the ways the scheme could operate in practice, drawing from existing models.

Looking at Shanghai, Hyun Kyung Lee’s research into the preservation of the former headquarters of the Shanghai Provisional Government of Korea (SPGK) in the former French Concession investigates the politics and diplomacy of South Korean–Chinese attempts to commemorate shared heritage. It was only after the 1987 revised Constitution proclaimed the SPKG as the root of the Republic of Korea that collaboration between South Korea and China began, leading to this particular case of Korean heritage making in China. Lee’s investigation of the divergent interpretations of this historic site demonstrates how transnational heritage making can struggle to transcend national mnemonic boundaries.

In Korea, the USSR occupied the northern half of the country after Japan withdrew its occupation forces. The Soviets installed a regime of North Korean communists who enjoyed popular support due to their sacrifices in fighting the Japanese during World War II. The leadership convinced Moscow and Beijing to sanction and support an invasion of South Korea that they hoped would reunify the country. This led to the Korean War, which merely restored the status quo ante at the expense of millions of lives. The pathway was different in Vietnam, where a guerrilla war against Japanese, then French, occupation led to the victory of the Vietnamese communist party in the North.

Chapter 5 examines the proliferation dispute between the United States and the Republic of Korea (ROK). The Nixon administration’s efforts to extricate the United States from the Vietnam War, draw down US troops in East and Southeast Asia, and seek a rapprochement with China precipitated this dispute. ROK president Park Chung-hee authorized a secret nuclear weapons program in 1972. The Ford administration used a mix of threats to suspend bilateral nuclear cooperation and promises to stabilize US troop levels to get Park to cancel the purchase of a French reprocessing plant in 1975 and 1976. The dispute erupted anew in 1977, when Carter proposed withdrawing all US troops and tactical nuclear weapons. The crisis was finally resolved in 1981, when the Reagan administration pledged to maintain troop levels in exchange for ROK president Chun Doo-hwan’s redirecting nuclear energy research to civilian purposes.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This chapter discusses why early modern and modern societies use juries. One of the strongest reasons is to alleviate the problem of bias among judges. In the eighteenth century, the prominent English writer William Blackstone gave this as a key reason for juries, and so did the Anti-Federalists at the founding of the United States. In South Korea and Japan in the 2000s, concern about judicial bias prompted introduction of jurors. In the United States, judicial elections make the problem especially acute. The nineteenth-century French political writer Alexis de Tocqueville best described another major rationale: the jury is representative of the people, a form of democracy. This theory proved persuasive in Europe, Latin America, and Southeast Asia. Tocqueville also articulated the novel concept of the jury as a school for democracy. A rationale that is often overlooked is that the jury serves the interest of legal professionals—judges and lawyers.

Full textAbstract:
At the end of the war, Imperial Japan’s vast armies stretched from Manchuria to Korea, from the Aleutian Islands to the South Pacific. Surrender was not an end in itself. It was for 3.5 million soldiers only a beginning. In this chapter Rotem Kowner examines the repatriation of demobilized Japanese soldiers in a transnational key, focusing on how the process of soldiers return became enmeshed in the wars of decolonization, restoration of imperial power, and the early Cold War. From Java to French Indochine, Kowner examines how Japanese soldiers, once the frontlines of an ideology of pan-Asianism, became auxiliaries in the restoration of European imperial control. In the Dutch East Indies he shows how Japanese soldiers both aided the return of the Dutch forces; and on the other armed anticolonial nationalists. How did the men who fought for the creation of a New Order greet the wars end? By connecting the experience of repatriation to the wars of decolonization and hardening Cold War divisions, Kowner sheds light on an important part of the unwinding of Japan’s wartime imperium.
