2010年4月,韩国国会投票赞成允许双重国籍(156票赞成,19票反对,17票弃权)。以韩国为例,我做了一个方法论和一个实质性的论点,官方承认双重国籍。首先,在法律上承认双重国籍可能会表现出一个路径依赖的进展,从零容忍,仅仅是容忍,并正式承认。因此,我认为,双重国籍的研究需要考虑到各种立法的变化,这表明对双重国籍的容忍度越来越高。实质上,我认为,在韩国引入法律上的双重国籍,表明正式的灵活的公民身份的策略,由上层韩国人和韩国政府。对于韩国上层社会来说,双重国籍已经成为一种将阶级特权传给子女的策略,而对于韩国政府来说,双重国籍已经成为吸引资源丰富的海外韩国人和全球人才的策略。
The National Assembly of the Republic of Korea (South Korea) voted in favor of allowing dual citizenship (156 in favor, 19 against, and 17 abstentions) in April 2010. Using South Korea as a case study, I make one methodological and one substantive argument regarding official acknowledgment of dual citizenship. First, de jure acknowledgment of dual citizenship will be likely to exhibit a path-dependent progression, from zero tolerance, to mere tolerance, and to official acknowledgment. Therefore, I argue that a study of dual citizenship needs to take into account various legislative changes that are indicative of increasing tolerance toward dual citizenship. Substantively I argue that introduction of de jure dual citizenship in South Korea indicates officialization of the strategy of flexible citizenship employed both by upper-class South Koreans and by the South Korean government. For upper-class South Koreans, dual citizenship has become a strategy to pass their class privilege on to their children while, for the South Korean government, dual citizenship has become a strategy to attract resource-rich overseas Koreans and global talent.
