AB - This article examines the hegemonic trend in the
social treatment and processing of Korean immigration in Buenos
Aires, Argentina. It is suggested that Korean immigrants gained
visibility --especially during the ‘90s-- through the circulation of
public and private discourses that articulated biology, culture and
class in a shadowy operation of local racism: the ethnicization of
class conflict. A corpus of contemporary everyday discourses on
Korean immigrants --namely news stories published in the main
national newspapers and informal interviews with non-Korean
residents-- is therefore analyzed against the specific background of
Argentina’s ethnic formation, its migration history, and the political
and economic context informing discursive production.
Taking discourse as a situated social practice, this article
attempts to contribute not only to the study of racist phenomena,
but also to a facet of Korean studies that has lately attracted
academic interest: that of the Korean diaspora in Latin America.
