International conference “Marginality, Inclusion, and Gender in Korea: past and present
From the East Asian Studies Area we have presented that the International Conference “Marginality, inclusion, and gender in Korea: past and present” had took place on March 12th and 13th at the Rayo Verde building of the University of Malaga.
Through numerous lectures, the relationships between the different processes of discrimination and integration of social groups within Korean society have been analyzed from a wide variety of topics. The lectures were given by experts in these matters, from our University of Malaga, as well as other universities from different countries, such as South Korea, Japan, China, Czech Republic, Poland, Germany, Romania, India, Mexico and the United States. In addition, we could also enjoy a performance by the company Mu Teatro directed by Professor Eun Kyung Kang and in collaboration with the School of Dramatic Art of the UMA.
