Multi-Cultural Society and Demographical Politics: Focusing on the Implications of 2016 US Presidential Election Results to Future Korean and European Societies

This study deals with 2016 US presidential election in terms of demographical politics. And it attempts to apply its implications to future Korean and European societies. We observed ‘shy’ Trump supporters in the presidential election who have been worried about falling proportion of whites among total population even if they are still majorities. President-elect Trump utilized successful election strategies stimulating whites’ crisis feelings in the campaign process. Korean society is in the transition into a multicultural society even if it is different from American and European societies in demographical constituencies. It is a time to prepare for the transitional conflict resolutions in the demographical-political perspective.
