In Search of 'Coreano-Cubanos': The dynamics of ethnic identity among the Korean diaspora in Cuba

我的研究探讨了在过去的一个世纪里，朝鲜侨民在古巴的民族身份是如何随着每一代人的变化而变化的。采用“四边形身份形成模型”，我将在古巴（祖国）和朝鲜半岛（祖国）的社会政治转型中描绘散居的过程。通过阐明每个历史时期如何反映在他们的身份以及他们与祖国和祖国的联系中，本研究将为韩国-古巴侨民，两个朝鲜作为分裂的家园在身份形成中的作用，以及这些侨民在古巴-韩国关系中的意义提供新的见解。

My research explores how the ethnic identity of the Korean diaspora in Cuba has changed with each generation during the past century. Employing a 'Quadrangular Identity Formation Model', I will chart the process of diasporisation alongside sociopolitical transformations in Cuba (hostland) and the Korean Peninsula (homeland). By elucidating how each historical period is reflected in their identity and their connection to homeland and hostland, this study will provide new insight into the Korean-Cuban diaspora, the role of the two Koreas as a divided homeland in identity formation, and the significance of this diaspora in Cuba-Korean relations.
