한국의 성산업에 외국에서 이주해온 여성들이 유입되기 시작한 것은 1990년대 중반부터이다. ‘한국외국인관광시설업협회’는 1996년부터 예술흥행사증 발급을 편법적으로 활용하여 필리핀 여성들과 구 소련계 여성들을 성매매 목적으로 도입하였다. 그 후 한국정부는 외국인 공연허가제 규제를 완화의 일환으로 폐지하고, 외국인 연예인을 수입하는 절차를 대폭 간소화하여 인력수입업자들은 일정한 시설요건만 갖추면 쉽게 근로자파견사업허가를 받도록 하였다. 즉, 국내에서 일하는 외국인 연예인은 국내공연 기획사에 고용된 근로자로서 공연업소에 파견되는 근로자로 자리매김한 것이다. 그러나 그들은 실상 공연을 하는 것보다 성적 서비스를 하도록 강요당하며 인권의 사각지대에 놓여 있다.

사회복지사들은 이주기혼여성들이 이주민이라는 특색을 고려하여 이들을 대하여야 한다. 특정 문화와 이를 수용하려는 자세가 되어있으면 지식습득이 빠르며 내담자와의 공감대 형성도 별 무리없이 이루어 지는 경향이 많기에 다문화 수용의 자세를 가져야 한다.

The Korean society is very rapidly changing into a multi-cultural society. Nowadays, the number of migrants living in Korean society more 2.3 million(4.6% of the nation's population), and analysts say that it will be increased nearly 5.8% of the population by 2021. Moreover, marriage migrant women from Russia, CIS and Mongolia in South Korea accounted for 3.8% of total marriage migrants 4.6% involving female foreigners in March of 2019. So this study is so important to consider the lack of informations and research on Russian, CIS and Mongolian migrant women in the Republic of Korea. The study shows that recently women's migration from Russia, CIS and Mongolia also was increased. But our multi-cultural policy just focused on marriage migrant women from Asian countries, and it has been based on Korean patriarchy and assimilation ideology in Korea, even if migrant women were hoping to get their equal human rights as Korean citizens. So the researcher carried out the survey about the socio-cultural adaptation and the human rights situation as qualitative research, with in-depth interviews of migrant women from Russia, CIS and Mongolia plus their migrant women's rights experts. We should make the new framework of multi-cultural policy to assure their human rights, citizenship and gender equality.

This research examines marriage migrant women's interpreting and translation work as an ethnic labor, analyzing its creation and work experiences. Major findings about ethnic labor in the research are as follows: First, Korean gendered and discriminatory- exclusive immigration policy enables the creation of interpreting and translation job to marriage migrant women. While the policy limits settlement and employment fields of male immigrant workers, marriage migration women are allowed to settle and find any job. Second, job security and wage of marriage migrant women's interpreting and translation work are still low, although the job is considered a relatively decent one in foreign immigrant labor market. Finally, they experience conflicts between role as neutral interpreters and identity as migrant women, facing native Koreans' distrust and discrimination against them. In conclusion, this study suggests some issues on marriage migrant women's empowerment and their labor market prospect in terms of the sustainability of this job.

In spite of increasing women migrants, proper social programs based on human rights are hardly found. In this paper, with the implication of 'diaspora', the essential term of multi-culturalism from the perspective of migrant women is briefly discussed. Also, social programs for migrant women are suggested through looking into the experiences of EU. EU policies and social programs are reorganized through data analysis and policy contents analysis. EU has longer history of immigration, and has provided the proper and long-term programs to accept migrant women as the qualified social member. EU social programs are based on the principles of non-discrimination, full employment, human rights and citizenship. Social programs should imply long-term inclusive policy for migrants, and help migrants to experience empowerment in the society. By looking into some examples of social programs of employment, education and general knowledge, useful social programs are to be suggested.

An increase in the number of immigrants to Korea since the late 1980s' has signified the proliferation of globalization and global capitalism. In Korea, most married immigrants are women, as the culture emphasizes patrilineage and the stability of the institution of marriage, particularly in rural areas. Immigrant women have experienced dual ordeals. The Aogra Internet community in Korea has been one of the most representative sites that has shown the power of communities in cyberspace since 2002, leading the discussion of social issues and deliberative democracy both online and offline. This paper analyzed Koreans' writings (such as long comments) on immigrant women in the Agora community. The analysis revealed the following results: first, immigrant women were referred to using terms related to prostitution, with excessive expression of disgust, which is called a "narrative of identity." Second, anti-multiculturalists called Korean men victims of married immigrant women and expressed hatred toward immigrant women, which is called a "narrative of sacrifice." Third, anti-multiculturalists justified their emotions as just resentment based on ideas of justice, equality, and patriotism, concealing the emotion of disgust, which is called the "narrative of justice, equality." Fourth, antimulticulturalists played roles to spread the emotion of disgust, by repeatedly referring to international marriage fraud and immigrant workers' crimes, which is called "narrative of crime." Fifth, some positive writings on immigrant women were based on empathy(a concept defined in this context by Martha Nussbaum), but they can be analyzed as narratives encouraging cultural integration through the perspective of orientalism. Therefore, comments on immigrant women in the Agora represent a "catch-22" dilemma. To deal with conflicts arising from disgust and violations of human rights, civic education focusing on humanism is needed in this multicultural era.

Ever since Korea and Vietnam reestablished diplomatic relations, the two countries'bond has become stronger than ever, augmenting the range of exchange between them in almost every possible field including politics, economy, society, and culture at such a high speed. Among many, an increase in number of Vietnamese immigrant women in international marriage is worthy of close attention. Since 2010, Vietnamese has topped the proportion of total foreign women married to Korean men, having surpassed Chinese. Nonetheless, the quick international marriage between Korean men and Vietnamese women, which usually happens without sufficient time to get to know about different cultures and languages, has not only raised problems for people concerned, but numerous social issues as well. Recognizing these problems, a number of government departments have provided various support on policies and legal issues toprotect multicultural families as a means of social integration and settlement support. Nevertheless, the support policies until now have been generalizing all of the immigrant women in international marriage as people subject to protection. Thus, considering every immigrant women as people in need, and trying to help them with various social issues have caused the government a high cost and low efficiency. This thesis emphasizes the point that through the cases of Vietnamese immigrant women in international marriage, there should be a specific support plan for specific people in need, reflecting various traits of different cultures and societies, in order to ease their settlement in Korea. Moreover, it suggests detailed plans for improvements on legal and institutional problems. Although the Vietnamese government forbids commercial agents for international marriage, many of agencies are still active and to help the immigrant women, who desire to return and resettle in Vietnam in case of divorce, this thesis suggests legal and institutional remedies for Korean and Vietnamese government. The composition of the thesis follows below: Part II on social and cultural traits of international marriage between Korean men and Vietnamese women. Part III on institutional problems and plans for improvements regarding settlement of immigrant women in international marriage. Part IV on legal and institutional problems and plans for improvements regarding divorced immigrant women and their return to Vietnam. Part V on conclusion. Divorce is not a flaw anymore nowadays, but in case of Vietnamese immigrant women ininternational marriage, an inadequate legal system hampers their resettlement process. Cases of not being ableto remove their own names from the family register due to poor financial and legal abilities are often identified and it is both the Vietnamese and Korean governments'duty to acquit their ethical responsibilities by seeking ways to institutionally and financially support them.

Contrary to traditional social movements, Dooriban movement led by active/independent participants -who are locally situated and culturally sensitized- showed a new way of engaging with political power. Making use of qualitative methodology such as in-depth interviews and participant observation, this research examines the implications of emergent cultural practices that redefine and reconfigure the working mechanisms of social movements in Korea today.
