Abstract

This study aims to identify the factors and effects of civic engagement in improving the community in an ethnic cluster, and its relationship with place attachment by applying a grounded theory method to the experiences of volunteers of the Daerim-dong Foreigners’ Voluntary Crime Prevention Patrol (FVCPP) in Seoul. The results show both the specificity of immigrants as well as the generality. First, in addition to general factors such as positive perception of the ethnic cluster and personal characteristics, in the case of immigrants, special factors such as their adaptation to local society and awareness of the ethnic community act as causal conditions for place attachment and civic engagement. In addition, negative local public opinion on immigrants and the cluster motivates them to volunteer in the community, and their social ties connect them to engage. Immigrant civic engagement drives personal, social, and environmental development, as well as the development of the civic activity itself, which in turn reinforces place attachment. From this, we can derive the conditions in which immigrants’ local adaptation, place attachment, civic engagement, and community improvement can make synergistic effects with each other.
