Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of California, San Diego, 2003.

My study investigates the processes of identity construction among second-generation Korean Americans in suburban Los Angeles and Sand Diego in California. The objective of dissertation was to demonstrate how multiple, contradictory, fragmented, and unstable subjectivities are articulated to construct distinctive identities through social discourses and socio-cultural human practices in particular social contexts. In so doing, I also aim to reveal the ways in which power relations influence the construction of individual identity and to show in what sense and to what extent identity takes on the nature of politics. By using ethnographic methods, I particularly focused on examining two groups, church groups and Korea American Student Association (KASA), to show how differences are produced among the Korean Americans.

520 $a My study investigates the processes of identity construction among second-generation Korean Americans in suburban Los Angeles and Sand Diego in California. The objective of dissertation was to demonstrate how multiple, contradictory, fragmented, and unstable subjectivities are articulated to construct distinctive identities through social discourses and socio-cultural human practices in particular social contexts. In so doing, I also aim to reveal the ways in which power relations influence the construction of individual identity and to show in what sense and to what extent identity takes on the nature of politics. By using ethnographic methods, I particularly focused on examining two groups, church groups and Korea American Student Association (KASA), to show how differences are produced among the Korean Americans.
520 $a Based on the analysis, I argue what distinguishes second-generation Korean Americans from other Americans is their experiences of 'different ways' of social development which positioned them straddling two cultures, which are entangled with their subordinate positions in racial structures. By illuminating the two different processes of identity construction in the church group and KASA, I explicate that their sociocultural practices of preferring exclusive ethnic social interactions are generated by their in-between dispositions as their habitus. Furthermore, I revealed that each organization provides its own specific discourse such as Christian multiculturalist, or civic discourse, in which the research participants can position themselves, construct meanings and morals, and thus build symbolic boundaries between themselves and other groups. As a result, seemingly homogeneous second-generation Korean Americans constitute differentiated identities such as a religious identity or a reconstructed Korean American identity. Lastly, I also demonstrated that language plays an important role in forging identity and power among second-generation Korean Americans. As the implications of the dissertation, I suggested that the usefulness of the postmodern concept of identity for understanding the question of agency as well as the construction of identity.
