Xenophobia Threatening Multicultural Society
The book examines the increase in anxiety due to the increase in mobility in the high-mobility era, various reorganisations of the community, and human rights and rights issues that arise in the process.
Recently, as the number of foreigners with multiple characteristics, including refugees and Muslims, has increased,
the general public’s perception of international migration and multicultural society has changed to a sense of vigilance and threat,
and Xenophobia’s bare face has been more clearly revealed in the COVID-19 situation.
The distribution of public masks and emergency disaster support funds for COVID-19 and the exclusion of foreign residents because they are not the ‘citizens’ also shows an exclusive attitude toward them.
This book seeks alternative ethics, communities, and desirable ways to form urban spaces in Korean society, which rapidly changes
into a multicultural society.
