Purpose - The multicultural society is a society where a variety of ethnic groups and cultures co-exist. Regarding Korean multicultural society, the public interest in the multicultural society and its problems are on a growing trend due to the increasing number of the multicultural families by international marriage and the foreign immigrant workers. Research design, data, and methodology - Models of the multicultural society policies have been divided into those of assimilation and multiculturalism, while they have been materialized into the models of discriminative exclusivism, assimilation and multiculturalism. Most countries are aiming at the model of either the multiculturalism or the assimilation focused on national managerial situations. Results - In the case of Europe where the multicultural society had been formed earlier than Korea, Islamic immigrants have been politically accepted in order for Europe to overcome the problem of population decrease caused by its low birth-rate. Also, in the case of the United States. Conclusions - Korean multicultural society policies are characterized mostly by supporting the multicultural families of international marriage. In this study, it is intended to present the characteristics of diversified immigrants and the possible directions of the polices on immigrant youth in accordance with each country's managerial policy.

This study focuses on the differences in family values, which is a cause of family dissolution and conflicts of marriage immigrant women. This study was conducted on 441 women in Vietnam. It was done to explore their family values. Specifically, the following were examined: the overall family values and martial status of Vietnamese women; differences in their family values by region (northern, central, southern). The survey questionnaire consists of the following content: 'family perception'; 'gender-role values'; 'elderly parent support value'. The characteristics of family values of Vietnamese women are as follows. First, the scope of family perceived by them was relatively narrow. In particular, most of them didn't perceive the parents of a spouse as a familymember. Second, in terms of gender-roles, they perceived men and women as equal and didn't have strong perception of traditional gender roles. Third, they felt strongly about supporting elderly parents. The perception of supporting elderly parents is based on equal gender roles, instead of the paternalistic approach. They preferred financial support to living with parents. There were also differences in family values by region. Also, their values seemed to be the opposite of the ones well-known by region. In addition, their values were changing amid economic growth and modernization. Residents in Can Tho in the south - known to have open-minded Southeast Asian values - had the most patrilineal, traditional values with strong perception towards supporting elderly parents. Residents in Hanoi in the north - known to have heavy influence of Confucian culture - had non-traditional values with positive attitude towards liberal sex culture, divorce, and remarriage. Residents in Da Nang, a central region, had a mixture of northern and southern characteristics in terms of family values.

Methods: This study was a retrospective review of dataset from the 2012 National Multicultural Family Survey in Korea. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, an analysis of variance (ANOVA), Pearson correlation analysis, and multiple regression with the data of 3,014 married female immigrants. Results: Multiple regression analysis showed that demographic factors (age, education level, nationality, period of residency in Korea, and residential area), socio-economical factors (monthly family income, employment, support from the government for basic living, and Medicaid), social support factors (marital conflict, satisfaction with family relationships, some one to talk about self or family matters, meeting with homeland friend, and participation in community meeting), and immigration factors (life satisfaction, experience of social discrimination, and difficulties with living and using medical care) were associated with perceived health status. Conclusion: It is important to pay closer attention to immigrant women who have low economic status, less social support, experience difficulties with living in Korea and using medical care. An effective support system for this population should be developed in order to help them successfully transition.

일반적으로 기업가들이 창업을 할 때 자금을 필요로 한다. 이들 자금의 주요원천은 개인저축, 가족이나 친구들의 자금 또는 은행이나 다른 금융기관들의 대출이다. 이민자와 모국인 기업가들의 자금원천에는 차이가 있는데, 그 차이는 그들이 처해있는 사회적 맥락에 기인한다. 이 연구의 주제는 기업가의 거주형태-이민자인지 모국인인지-가 어떻게 자금의 원천에 영향을 미치는지, 그리고 이러한 차이가 어떻게 한국가의 부에 의해 조절효과를 가지는지 하는 것이다. 데이터는 글로벌 기업가정신 모니터에서 29개국 14,369명의 이민자 및 모국인 창업 기업주나 관리자를 대상으로 서베이한 것을 사용했으며, 위계혼합모델을 사용하여 분석하였다. 분석결과 이민자나 모국인 기업가 모두 개인저축과 가족의 자금을 가장 주요한 자금원천으로 사용했다. 모국인 기업가들은 이민자 기업가들보다 은행이나 금융기관들을 주요 자금원천으로 사용한데 반해, 이민자 기업가들은 친구나 기타 원천을 자금원천으로 사용했다. 하지만 이러한 거주형태가 자금의 원천에 미치는 영향은 국가의 상황에 의해 조절된 것으로 나타났다. 한 국가의 부의 정도가 친구나 기타 원천을 자금원천으로 사용하도록 촉진한 것으로 나타났다.

This is a study that explores the influence of self-differentiation and acculturation among married immigrant women on their feelings of marriage satisfaction by residential area. The aim was to verify the level of self-differentiation and acculturation that married immigrant women secure from multicultural marriage. To achieve this objective, the study widely distributed a questionnaire that targeted women who were participating in education and other services at health and family support centers, multi-cultural family support centers, general social welfare centers, immigrant women shelters, and Korean language classrooms which are located in Seoul, Gyeonggi, Chungcheong, Jeolla, and Gyeongsang. Data analysis involved frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, one-way-Anova, and multiple regression analysis. Based on the results of descriptive statistics, two factors, namely, (1)interpersonal-relation differentiation, a sub-scale of self-differentiation, and (2)marginalization, a sub-scale of acculturation, had the lowest average. In verifying its various hypotheses, the study achieved the following results. Firstly, among demographic characteristics, there was difference of the mean in the marriage period, average monthly income, the frequency of meetings with the married woman´s parents-in-law and her own parents, and the average cost of supporting the woman's parents-in-law and her own parents. Secondly, among demographic characteristics, the variable of influencing marriage satisfaction showed negative influence in the case of women dwelling in farming and fishing villages. This shows that women residing in cities whether small, medium or large have higher marriage satisfaction. Also, as a result of verifying whether self-differentiation has influence on marriage satisfaction, the element of interpersonal-relations differentiation had a negative influence on marriage satisfaction. Thirdly, as for influence of acculturation upon marriage satisfaction, the study showed that just integration, which is a sub-scale of acculturation had positive effect on marriage satisfaction. In other words, the study showed that the interpersonal-relation differentiation among the sub-scales of self-differentiation among married immigrant women had a negative influence, and that integration among the sub-scales in acculturation had a positive influence on marriage satisfaction. Based on these results, in order to increase interpersonal-relation differentiation, as well as marriage satisfaction among immigrant women, the study suggests the integration of the women's families with the nuclear and extended families in the communities where the women reside.

본 연구의 목적은 베트남 출신 결혼이주여성들의 원(原)문화와 이주국 문화 간에 일어나는 문화접촉 양상을 그들이 경험하는 한국 전통명절을 통해서 탐색하는 것이다. 연구의 목표를 달성하기 위하여 본 연구는 사례연구방법으로 수행하였으며, 자료수집은 베트남 결혼이주여성 7명에 대한 심층면담을 통해 이루어졌다. 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 베트남 출신 결혼이주여성들은 자국 문화를 경험한 상태에서 한국문화와 접하게 되면서 한국문화에 대한 호감을 갖게 되는 반면에, 모국과 한국의 문화차이로 인한 갈등도 상당히 겪고 있다. 그러나 이들은 자신이 처해 있는 가정적 그리고 사회적 환경에서 적극적으로 적응하려는 모습을 이들의 한국 전통명절 경험을 통해서 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 연구 결과를 토대로 본 연구에서는 결혼이주여성들의 성공적인 이주생활을 위해서 다음과 같은 제언을 하고자 한다. 첫째, 베트남계 다문화가정에서의 화목한 가정생활을 위해서는 일방적으로 결혼이주여성을 대상으로 교육을 진행하는 것이 아니라 한국과 결혼이주여성 모국 문화에 대한 깊은 이해를 바탕으로 가정을 함께 꾸려나갈 수 있도록 상호문화교육이 진행되어야 한다. 둘째, 결혼이주여성들이 명절자리에서 가족 간의 유대감이나 소통을 느끼지 못한 것이 발현되었는바, 전통명절과 관련된 보다 구체적인 프로그램, 행사 등의 진행이 전제되어 공동체의 유대감을 증진시키는 전통명절의 기능을 확보해야 한다.

Altruistic virtuous caring, possibly originated from religion and/or spirituality, is indispensable for holistic health through channeling vital energy with diet, exercise and meditation. This is a participant-observed medical anthropological research of a first generation Korean elderly immigrant health professional woman living in a four generational family. She had hypertension and was concerned about possible attack of stroke. Multi-religious, spiritual, and cosmological vital energy based on holistic Nature-oriented health beliefs and practices influenced by psychosocial, cultural and economic background, education, self- discipline and self-cultivation of individual, and group or family may create health. Self-care beliefs based on confidence in self-control of one's life style for oneself and others influence individual and group health practice. The holistic alternative health beliefs and practices were proved to be efficacious and beneficial by her self-evaluation, evaluation of significant others, biomedical professionals, and laboratory tests. That may have potential application for global health.

결혼이민자들은 한국사회에서 새로이 사회관계망을 구축해야 하는 부담을 가지므로 사회자본이 상대적으로 취약할 수밖에 없으며, 이는 자녀양육과정상의 어려움과 관련성을 가진다. 본 연구는 사회자본이 여성결혼이민자들의 양육참여와 양육효능감에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 구체적으로, 구조방정식 모형을 통해 가정내 사회자본과 가정외 사회자본이 여성결혼이민자의 양육효능감에 미치는 영향을 양육참여의 매개효과 분석을 중심으로 살펴보았다. 연구대상자는 경기교육복지패널 1차년도 자료를 활용하여 경기도 지역에 거주하는 459명의 여성결혼이민자를 대상으로 하였다. 매개효과의 분석을 위해 매개변인인 양육참여를 제외한 주효과모형과 투입한 매개효과모형을 비교하고 부트스트래핑 분석을 수행하여 매개효과의 유의성을 검증하였다. 분석결과, 가정외 가정내 사회자본은 양육참여에 유의미한 영향을 미쳤으며 양육참여가 양육효능감에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 양육참여가 매개변인으로 설정된 모형에서 가정외, 가정내 사회자본은 양육효능감에 직접적인 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타나 양육참여가 이들간의 관계를 완전매개하는 것으로 나타났다.
