In cycle 2, I'm going to compare some data about between Japanese and Zainichi Koreans.
①Occupational prestige
[meaning] Occupational prestige is a way for sociologists to discribe the relative social class posotions people have.
ex) When you hear the man is a doctor, you will respect him or admire him. But when you heaar another man work at supermarket as a part-time job employment, you may look down on him. In spite of the fact that there is no superior among each work sorts.
The top ten occupations with the highest prestige.
1.pharmacist
2.physician
3.lawyer
4.computer scientist
5.college professor
6.physicist
7.chemical engineer
8.architect
9.biologist
10.physical scientist
comparison between Japanese and Zainichi Korean about occupational prestige
Zainichi Korean 48.02
Japanese 47.32
I couldn't find the difference about occupational prestige between Japanese and Zainichi Koreans.
So, we can say there is no difference about income between Japanese and Zainichi Koreans.
But, there is a different point in terms of work place.
②Work Place
60% of Zainichi Koreans are working as self-owned businesses.
Because of the discrimination in work place, they are difficult to work in common company for a long time.
They can't workas civil servant except professor in national university,and doctor or nusre in national hospital.
