Cases of discrimination against foreigners, especially those of Chinese descent, as a source of infection are increasing rapidly around the world. East Asia is no exception. In a strongly homogeneous society, foreigners are subject to discrimination and oppression as the "other. Such oppression and discrimination can be both institutional and social. Hate speech against foreigners is also on the rise, but in many cases such discourse is justified on the basis of freedom of expression. The panel will examine cases of discrimination against foreigners in Korea, cases of discrimination against foreigners in Japan, and cases of discrimination against Filipinos in Japan, as well as how freedom of speech is misused.Kyushu University Asia Week: Pandemic and Multicultural Society
