Park Seung-woo: Understanding Multicultural Education and Policy

Focus on multicultural education and policy, and have a deep appreciation for multic culture. Since the 2000s, our country has rapidly moved into a multicultural society that is now becoming an inexorable historical trend. We have long adopted the character of ‘ethnic and cultural homogeneousity ’ as a natural attribute, but it is now a myth. Today, with more than two million foreigners living in our country, our society is becoming multi-racial, a multi-cultural community of peoples and ethnic groups. And all of this requires a deeper understanding of cultural phenomena. The book focused on multicultural education and policy. The author deals with multicultural phenomena in 13 sections, and he deals with them at various angles. There has been a surge of research and literature that deals with multiple cultural phenomena, including the development of multicultural phenomena in various fields of human social sciences from the late 2000s until recently, while collectively analyzing and systematically addressing them. In addition, various sources and reports are being submitted to government public institutions and private civil rights organizations. In the midst of these floodes of research and data, there are not many works that have been compiled and systematically analyzed and written so easily understood by the public. The first chapter, which sets out to distinguish 13 different phases of multicultural society, recently introduces many social phenomena and causes in our country, which is a multi-ethnic community.
