Agenda October 2016
L'Agenda de l'EFEO
Editorial
This month the HCERES (High Council for the evaluation of research and higher learning) will visit the EFEO to evaluate the activities of the establishment over the quinquennium 2012-2016 (relevant to "phase B"). For the first time, the evaluation will include five Écoles françaises overseas (Athens, Rome, IFAO-Cairo, EFEO, Casa de Velasquez-Madrid); the same committee, subdivided into sub-committees for the visit to each establishment, will be in charge of the audit and of recommendations. The visit to the EFEO will take place at its Paris headquarters of the Maison de l'Asie on 3rd and 4th October. A wide-ranging videoconference link-up has been arranged so that committee members can interact not only with the directors and personnel of the headquarters but also with those in charge of the Centres and the partners of the École in Asia. A plenary meeting will then be held on 4th and 5th October in the premises of the HCERES, from, among others, the councils and directors of the five to make the assessment of the visits and to appraise the collective dynamic of the "network of Écoles françaises overseas". This network, which has developed numerous combined initiatives these last years in the domain of research, in valorisation or administration, has been enriched since the beginning of this month by a shared website at http://www.resefe.fr/

EFEO Seminar Paris
Filipino street Hyehwadong

The EFEO Paris seminar is to be held 17th October, where Dr. Yoon Injin (Asiatic Research Institute, Korea University) speaks on: "International migration, migrant integration, and multiculturalism in South Korea" at the Maison de l'Asie, 22 avenue du Président Wilson, 75116 Paris.
vincent.paillusson@efeo.net

While multiculturalism lost popular support in Europe, it gained public interest and policy attention in Northeast Asia, particularly in South Korea since the 1990s. The rapid increase of immigrants and the urgent need for accommodating new members of society and helping them integrate into mainstream society were the main reasons for the sudden interest in multiculturalism. The Korean approach to multiculturalism has several distinctive characteristics. First, the Korean government's policies and programs regarding immigrants are oriented toward migrant integration rather than multiculturalism. Their main goal is to assist immigrants to adapt to Korean society with little attention to their cultural rights. Second, the main targets or beneficiaries of the government's migrant integration policy are people in international marriages and their children. Migrant workers, who account for a larger share of immigrants in Korea, are not considered a major clientele of migrant integration programs. Ethnic Chinese, who have lived in Korean soil for many generations, are not even considered as a relevant target group that the government needs to take care of. Third, most migrant integration policies and programs aim at assimilating immigrants to Korean culture and society rather than accepting cultures and identities of immigrant groups. Fourth, the Korean people and society as a whole are pretty sympathetic toward immigrants, especially toward female marriage migrants and their children. Because of the general public's positive and benevolent attitudes toward immigrants, the Korean government allocated a generous budget for migrant integration programs. Finally, the Korean government has dealt with specific multicultural minority groups by legislating specific laws and policies for each group. This group-specific approach toward migrant integration has not only created fissures among migrants, but has also antagonism and conflict among migrants and locals. It will be difficult to obtain the consent of ordinary citizens and to continue operating special group-specific policies. Thus, the government policy should become more universal in its principle and application and try to strengthen the overall national capacity to protect all people at risks rather than targeting specific groups of people.
