AB - This article aims to reveal a new demension in the movements of Korean residents in Japan, through tracing the trends of the movements developed in local areas of Japan, using the raw materials of GHQ/SCAP documents.
The movement oriented to the nation or fatherland, which was propelled by the ‘fatherland faction’ was the way which satisfied the policy of Japanese government which wanted to separate and exclude the Korean residents in Japan.
On the contrary, the movement to participate to Japanese politics as an ethnic minority group which was carried out by ‘JCP faction’ was the line which can contribute to transform Japan into a democratic multi-ethnic state which guarantee the equality and coexistence among every ethnic groups.
Though it failed as a political line, the latter was the right one in the meaning that it challenged Japanese government's wrong policy which aimed to exclude Koreans from Japan. The main problem was that JCP faction's movement was attempted in a wrong time, with a wrong means, i.e., in a time of the Korean War, with a militarisitic means. Nevertheless, though in a wrong time, the Korean activists in local areas of Japan had left traces in which they tried hard to mend their ways, and to meet the needs of age.
