AB - A multi-cultural policy usually involves problems of guaranteeing human rights and medical welfare of immigrants. However, there are increasing sociopolitical and sociocultural demands as the length of their residence in South Korea is becoming longer. Hence, a multi-cultural policy should be discussed in depth and prepared in a complex manner. In South Korea, transition towards a multi-cultural society is rapidly occurring and the number of immigrants lately exceeded one million. This trend seems to continue in the future, and Japan has been in a similar situation as well. Moreover, it reveals that there is a strong need to develop diverse policy programs for securing settlement of multi-cultural families and promoting understanding of multi-culture among the general public. It is also necessary to conduct a series of comprehensive research on the impacts of multi-culture on society. These policies require support not only from central government but also from local government to be established and implemented based on reality. Therefore, this paper aims to explore and compare multi-cultural policies of two local governments: Ansan city in South Korea and Kawasaki city in Japan. This approach will help promote our understanding of multi-cultural society and prepare for further policy development.
