 note = {application/pdf, Statelessness has been the key element to understand the history of the Korean diaspora. The colonial/ post-colonial history of Korea and the collective displacement of the Koreans in the 20th century provoked ethno-nationalism and an independence movement among Korean diasporic communities. Thus, Korean diaspora studies have examined how these populations have developed nationalism and strong connections to their ancestral homeland. However, these studies tend to question and highlight the national belonging(s) of Korean diasporas in relation to their ancestral homeland and/or to their adopted homeland, while neglecting the diasporic consciousness that does not reside on the conceptual basis of a nation-state. Therefore, this article will focus on two diasporic Korean communities that became stateless in the twentieth century — Koreans in prewar Hawai‘i and in postwar Japan — focusing on the narratives on statelessness, interwoven by the second generations. And as a conclusion, this article will argue that the statelessness is a byproduct of a nation-state system and modernist project, which promotes the idea that it is “natural” to have a sense of national belonging(s), while those who have no nation to attach their sense of belonging to are understood to be rootless wanderers. It will also discuss the importance of conceptualizing statelessness in Korean diaspora studies by examining the ways in which national identities have emerged as a major discourse in diasporic identities, while non-national identities such as statelessness are silenced.},
