한국 화교사회의 조직구조와 역동성 = 인천 차이나타운을 중심으로

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This paper focuses on the organizational structure and the process of conflict and periodic change of overseas Chinese society in Korea. Based on fieldwork this article analyzes how public political processes and personal relationships overseas Chinese in Incheon interact and face various tensions by focusing on political and economical organizations. Through this research I will illuminate how traditional socal capitals of Chinese like guanxi are transformed to political capitals and the significance of the changes that are taking place in overseas Chinese society in conjunction with the appearance of Western rationality.
The important socio-political principles operating in overseas Chinese society in Incheon are guanxi (關係), renqing (人情), mianzi (面子), and bao (報). The banquet (qingke, 請客) is the place and space where these principles are comprehensively practiced. Therefore the ownership of such social capitals is an important virtue of a leader and the leadership is measured by how well he or she converts social capitals to political capitals.
Nevertheless these socio-political principles of overseas Chinese society are negotiated and rearranged as the need for economic rationality and community service arose after the normalization between south Korea and China in 1992 and the 1997 foreign exchange crisis popularly dubbed as ‘IMF Crisis.’
