Abstract

This study explored the essential meanings of experiences that married immigrant women living in rural communities have in their community participation process and analyzed the situations and types of their community participation in order to support immigration women's community participation and develop strategies for social welfare by type of community participation. For these purpose, we analyzed story outlines, meanings, types and situations of community participation among married immigrant women who had been over 5 years since their immigration. According to the results of this study, the meaning of married immigrant women's community participation was "Recognize myself as the pioneer of my life and participate in social activities continuously." In the results of analyzing the types of participation, the subjects were classified into 'self directed growth type,' 'self content type,' and 'social support expectation type.' The results of this study are expected to be helpful to understand the life of married immigrant women in rural areas not as 'individuals' otherized in a foreign country but as 'participants' of community that are encountered naturally in daily life, and to develop community level services suitable for such women.

본 연구에서는 농촌지역에 결혼이주한 후 생활한지 5년이 경과한 연구 참여자를 대상으로 '지역사회 참여' 과정상 겪게 되는 경험의 본질적 의미를 탐색하고, 참여상황과 참여유형의 분석을 통해 이주여성들의 지역사회 참여 지원방안과 유형별 사회복지실천 방안을 찾고자 한다. 이를 위해 결혼이주여성들의 지역사회 참여 이야기 윤곽, 의미분석, 유형분석, 상황분석 등을 실시하였다. 연구결과 결혼이주여성들의 지역사회 참여 경험의 의미는 "자신이 삶의 개척자임을 인식하고 지속적인사회활동 참여하기"로 나타났다. 참여유형 분석결과 '자기성장 주도형', '현실안주형', '사회적 지원 기대형'으로 분류하였다. 본 연구를 통해 농촌지역 결혼이주여성이 낮선 국가에 타자화된 '개인'으로서가 아니라 일상생활 속에서 자연스럽게 부딪치는 지역사회의 '참여자'로서 삶을 이해하고 그들에게 적합한 지역사회 차원의 서비스 개발에 도움을 제공할 것이다.
