Korea Workshop  |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The Korea Workshop was founded in 2001 and serves
as a forum for the university community with interest in Korean studies
to gather 4-5 times per semester and discuss topics of mutual interest. In 2005-06, the Korea Workshop was in its fifth year of activity, and its third year as a designated IPRH Reading Group. Fourteen scholars discussed The Koreas in a Transforming East Asia, the theme for that year.In 2006-07, the theme was South Korean Media/Technology Today, and in 2007-08 the theme is Korea – Gender, Sexuality, Race. See the list below of all the presenters since 2005. Sessions are run as a workshop: the paper to be discussed is distributed prior to the meeting, the graduate student session organizer serves as an informal discussant for the paper, and a second graduate student comments on the paper. The discussant’s remarks follow brief introductory comments by the presenter and the remaining time is devoted to open discussion. When the presenters are visitors to campus, time is designated for individual meetings with graduate students. Because the needs of U of I graduate students working on the Koreas far exceed local resources, these meetings have been a critical part of the Workshop.
