Dae Young Kim is an assistant professor of Sociology and Asian American Studies Program at the University of Maryland, College Park. He holds a dual appointment with the Sociology Department and the Asian American Studies Program (AAST). He teaches courses on ethnic and racial relations, immigration, and Asian Americans.

 

Dr. Kim is the author of several articles and book chapters on the Korean immigration, particularly the so-called 1.5 and second generations. His chapter entitled, “Leaving the Ethnic Economy: The Rapid Integration of Second-Generation Korean Americans in New York,” appeared in Becoming New Yorkers: Ethnographies of the New Second Generation (Russell Sage Foundation Press, 2004), an edited volume on the second-generation experience in New York. Several of his papers addressing the integration of the Korean American second generation have also appeared in peer-reviewed journals such as the Sociology of Religion, International Migration Review, and Ethnic and Racial Studies. His latest paper (coauthored with a graduate student), entitled “The Role of Father’s Occupation on Intergenerational Educational and Occupational Mobility: The Case of Second-Generation Chinese Americans in New York,” is forthcoming in the Sociological Forum.

 

Dr. Kim is currently working on a book project on the Korean American second generation. The book focuses on the processes of acculturation and racialization among second-generation Korean Americans.
