Product Description

Review

?The greatest strength of this text is the diversity of approaches. Because the authors are experts in a variety of fields, the volume is highly interdisciplinary. Another strength is that the authors delineate key terms and theoretical models related to topics such as feminism, immigration, and identity formation, thus allowing neophyte scholars to value the richness of data and analysis....Korean American Women provides a thoughtful and diverse approach to analyzing critically Korean American females' relationship to Korean men, feminism, and American society in general. The text is an extremely welcome addition to the body of both feminist and ethnic studies literature with its detailed information on both exigent and theoretical issues touching Korean American women's lives. Korean American Women will be of value to scholars in many disciplines, including gender studies, demography, psychology, sociology, and ethic studies.?-Gender & Society

Book Description

Emphasizing sociopolitical and cultural behaviors, this collection provides broad insight into the diverse experiences and perspectives of Korean American women in the light of feminism. In their discussions, the authors focus on the status and progress of Korean American women in contemporary society. Twenty-one selections examine the collective experience and Western feminist issues from minority feminist perspectives. The content is interdisciplinary and raises many thought-provoking, seldom-discussed issues. This book will be of interest to students and faculty in sociology, feminist and women's studies, ethnic studies, and Asian studies.
