亞比中心7月19-20日國際研討會【Transnational Families and the Second Generation in Asia】
聽到新移民、新二代，你想到什麼？同樣的名詞，在20年前與現在的台灣有甚麼不同的意義？這些名詞在亞際婚姻與跨國家庭逐漸普遍的當代南韓、香港、台灣與日本，又代表甚麼意涵？而這些名詞所指稱的社群，在看似相同卻又相異的東亞社會裡，有甚麼共同或不同的生活經驗，他們又是如何看待自己？
亞比中心很榮幸邀請到來自日本、韓國、菲律賓、美國、香港與台灣的14位學者，於7月19日與20日舉辦的"Transnational Families and the Second Generation in Asia"國際研討會中，探討亞太區域的亞際家庭經驗，並理解在這些家庭中長大的第二代如何與主流社會協商、形塑個人認同。
本研討會以實體為主，部分場次開放線上直播，議程請見https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OC93z5HuGSkm19pZmdeO4pJu0uQT4F-L/view?usp=drive_link

What comes to mind when you hear the terms “new immigrants” (xīn yímín) and “the (new) second generation” (xīn’èrdài)? How do these same terms differ in meanings and connotations in Taiwan now compared to 20 years ago? What do these terms signify in contemporary South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Japan, where intermarriages and transnational families are becoming increasingly common? Within seemingly similar yet different East Asian societies, what shared or distinct life experiences do these communities referred to by these terms have, and how do they perceive and define themselves?
To explore the experiences of transnational families in the Asia-Pacific region and understand how the second generation raised in these families negotiate and shape their personal identities in mainstream society, GARC organizes and hosts the conference “Transnational Families and the Second Generation in Asia,” held on July 19th and 20th. In this hybrid conference, distinguished scholars from Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, the United States, Hong Kong, and Taiwan have been invited to share their research and observations on the lived experiences of parents and children in transnational marriages and families in East Asia.
