> The 5-year Korean Family in Comparative Perspective (KFCP, 2010-)
> Laboratory for the Globalization of Korean Studies at the University of
> Illinois, funded by the Academy of Korean Studies, and housed in the

> The KFCP Laboratory aims to bring the Korean family to the center of
> comparative East Asian and general family studies, highlighting Korea as a
> productive comparative case of interest to non-Koreanists across a range
> of disciplines and scholarly locations. KFCP Fellows must be scholars
> interested in comparative work on the Korean family. Scholars with primary
> expertise in the family of other East Asian countries (e.g., China, Hong
> Kong, Japan, Taiwan) are particularly welcome to apply. Scholars with
> primary research emphasis on the Koreas must have a concrete plan to
> conduct comparative research (i.e., with another country/region). The
> Postdoctoral Fellowship is open to scholars in any humanities or social
> science discipline.
>
> The KFCP Laboratory is directed by anthropologist Nancy Abelmann and
> includes 3 KFCP Laboratory Fellows: Jungwon Kim (EALC and History,
> University of Illinois), Seung-Kyung Kim (Women's Studies, University of
> Maryland), and Hyunjoon Park (Sociology, University of Pennsylvania). The
> 2011-13 current Postdoctoral Fellow is historian of China, Elizabeth
> LaCouture (History, Colby College)
>
> The Postdoctoral Fellow will be welcomed to an active Koreanist community
> at the University of Illinois that includes a biweekly Korea Workshop
> (that will actively engage the themes of the Laboratory). The KFCP Fellow
> will be provided the opportunity to participate in organizing a Korean
> Family Colloquium Series which graduate students will be able to attend
> for partial credit. The KFCP Laboratory will be guided by a National
> Advisory Board (See list below). KFCP Laboratory Director, Fellows, and
> National Board Members will take an active role in nurturing the
> comparative scholarship of the Postdoctoral Fellow. The Postdoctoral
> Fellow will also have the opportunity to "workshop" his or her
> manuscript/s with experts from both on and off campus.
