Currently, the Korean society is being exposed to multicultural circumstances due to the accelerated increase of immigrants, so the Government is carrying out a policy for tolerating immigrants with the motto of 'multiculturalism'. Accordingly, the effective policy IS necessary in aspects of racial·cultural variety and integration.
The present research obtained policy implications through cases of overseas advanced countries after reviewing the policy' system for social integration and rights enhancement of immigrants of our society in a viewpoint of the multicultural society, and further, sought the improvement task of the existing legal' policy system for making our society move toward a real multicultural society.
The Government prepared the law and system for continuously increasing foreign immigrants and multi- cultural families, and is make various efforts for improvement of life quality of foreign immigrants.
However, problems are appearing in securing of effectiveness of the legislated law & system, and a multi -cultural society's range and its basic political idea, etc., and the legal basis on guarantee of fundamental rights and the protection of human rights of foreign immigrants doesn't exist.
Additionally, as multi- cultural policies are duplicated according to an agency, its effectiveness is low and a policy targeting the whole family such as children and spouses, etc. of a multi-cultural family is insufficient, and as the linkage among health-welfare-family domainss insufficient, its political effects are also low.
The present research also proposed securing of cultural identity for enjoying civil rights and obligations, seeking of a cooperative network between the Central and Local Governments, simultaneous consideration of a multicultural policy and social integration, and a detailed policy on construction and strengthening of the infrastructure for adaptation of immigrants.
In conclusion, in order to secure the effectiveness of a multi-cultural policy, the present research suggests to develop a multi-cultural model of a social integration policy suitable to th historical background of the Korean society and to start efforts for managing this effectively from Now, the more developed political intervention for previously preventing and coping with conflicts between races of a multi -cultural society IS necessary on the Korean society. From now on, the Korean society should worry about how it embodies and enriches a multi -cultural policy beyond a direction of the multi-cultural policy, and the worry should be achieved in the whole domains of diverse society integration.
