Abstract

Abstract:

About 100 years ago, Bukchon occupied a much larger part of Seoul than today, encompassing neighborhoods north of Cheonggyecheon. It was an area where middle-and upper-class residents lived continuously from the Joseon dynasty and major elite educational institutions were concentrated. This study first looks into the educational institutions of Bukchon from the late 19th to the early 20th century, following the Gabo Reform which abolished the status system. It argues that the middle class and students from the provinces migrated to Gyeongseong to take advantage of the educational institutions located in Bukchon. Next, with data on the location of schools and the students’ residency situation around the 1930s, this study examines the trend of educational migration to Bukchon during the colonial period. The analysis reveals that the educational institutions established in the late 19th century persisted and expanded during the colonial period, which led to the continuous movement to the capital of the middle class and students who desired to reproduce their class and achieve economic stability.

教育移民在向现代城市过渡中的影响:将北村作为向庆城教育移民的焦点
摘要:大约 100 年前,北村所占的首尔面积比现在大得多,包括清溪川以北的居民区。自朝鲜王朝以来,这里一直是中上层居民的居住地,也是主要精英教育机构的集中地。本研究首先探讨了 19 世纪末至 20 世纪初,加宝改革废除身份制度后北村的教育机构。研究认为,中产阶级和外省学生迁移到庆城,是为了利用位于北村的教育机构。接下来,本研究利用 20 世纪 30 年代前后学校位置和学生居住情况的数据,研究了殖民地时期向北村教育移民的趋势。分析结果表明,19 世纪末建立的教育机构在殖民地时期持续存在并不断扩大,这导致中产阶级和学生不断向首都迁移,他们希望繁衍自己的阶级并实现经济稳定。
