김선정,강현자 한국언어문화교육학회 2012 언어와 문화 Vol.8 No.3

The aim of this study is to consider how married woman immigrants communicate in Korean using their insufficient Korean proficiency. For this study, the colloquial discourse of five married woman immigrants from China, the Philippines and Vietnam was recorded. Nonverbal communication was observed using a face-to-face interview method. According to the discourse analysis, married woman immigrants applied various kinds of communicative strategies to communicate smoothly with their counterparts due to their imperfect Korean proficiency. The married woman immigrants often repeat the counterpart's illocutionary actions or their own ones. Especially, the repeat of their own illocutionary actions is one which is not found in native speaker's Korean. They often use the mimic method, including gestures and voices, and request the counterpart's language help when needed. The mimic method is especially a direct imitation which resulted from the difficulties in the change from a direct speech into an indirect speech. Teaching communication strategies as a plan to overcome some problems during communication should be conducted. The communication strategy should focus on the interactive strategy and the linguistic one to continually improve Korean proficiency.

결혼이주여성의 지역사회참여 현황과 교육법적 과제

박지인(Park, Ji In) 대한교육법학회 2021 교육법학연구 Vol.33 No.2

결혼이주여성의 지역사회참여는 이주한 국가에서 개인의 정체성을 형성하고, 사회･문화･정치적 통합에 긍정적인 작용을 하기에 중요한 의미를 가진다. 지역사회참여는 지역사회에서 상호작용을 위한 다양한 모임 및 활동에 참여하거나, 자신의 삶과 관련된 정책 결정 과정에 영향을 미치기 위한 활동을 모두 포괄하는 개념이다. 그러나 지금까지 결혼이주여성의 지역사회참여는 다양한 유형의 참여에 대한 논의와 제도적 지원이 이루어지지 못하였다는 한계가 있다. 이 연구에서는 결혼이주여성의 지역사회참여의 의의와 유형을 살펴보고, 관련 법제도에서 결혼이주여성의 참여에 대한 제도적 지원이 어떻게 나타나고 있는지를 검토하였다. 또한 결혼이주여성의 지역사회참여 현황을 실증적으로 살펴보기 위해 수도권 거주 결혼이주여성 210명을 대상으로 지역사회참여에 대한 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구 결과 관련 법제도에서는 사회적응교육을 중심으로 한 교육 지원이 주로 이루어지고 있었으며, 설문조사 결과 결혼이주여성들은 다문화가족지원센터를 중심으로 한 교육문화 프로그램에 가장 높은 참여를 보이고 정책참여에 가장 낮은 참여를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과에 따라 결혼이주여성의 지역사회참여를 활성화하기 위한 방안으로 사회구성원으로서 결혼이주여성의 참여에 대한 시각의 전환, 평생교육의 관점에서 결혼이주여성 교육 프로그램의 다양화, 실효성 있는 정책참여 기회의 확대, 일반 시민의 다문화인식 개선을 위한 다문화교육의 강화를 제안하였다. Community participation of married immigrant women has important meaning in forming individual identity in the country they have immigrated to and having positive effect on social, cultural, and political integration. Community participation is a concept that encompasses participation in various meetings and activities for mutual interactions in one’s local community and in activities aimed at exerting influence on policy-making process related to one s life. However, community participation of married immigrant women has been limited so far in that discussions about various types of participation and institutional support have not been made. This study examined the significance and types of community participation of married immigrant women and how institutional support for such participation of married immigrant women is reflected in relevant legal system. In addition, a survey on community participation was conducted with 210 married immigrant women living in the metropolitan area in order to empirically examine the current status of community participation of married immigrant women. As a result, it was found that educational support focused on social adaptation education is mainly reflected in relevant legal system. The survey results indicated that married immigrant women show the highest participation in educational and cultural programs provided mainly by Multicultural Family Support Centers and the lowest participation in policy affairs. Based on the results of this study, the following suggestions were made as ways to activate community participation of married immigrant women; change of perspective on community participation of married immigrant women as members of society, diversification of education programs for married immigrant women from the viewpoint of lifelong education, and reinforced support for vitalization of policy participation through ordinances, and reinforced support for multicultural education to improve multicultural awareness among ordinary citizens.

Understanding the Impact of Multidimensional Religiosity on the The Mental health of Immigrant Married Women

석창훈 사단법인 한국융합기술연구학회 2024 아시아태평양융합연구교류논문지 Vol.10 No.5

Marriage immigration can cause more problems in terms of mental health than other forms of immigration in that it requires considerable cultural and emotional adaptation, even within the family. In addition, in the process of immigration, religion helps maintain identity and adaptation and can lead to discrimination or conflict. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the relationship between the multidimensional religiosity and mental health of immigrant married women. This study critically reviewed domestic and foreign previous studies related to cultural adaptation and mental health of immigrant married women, immigrant married woman and religion, multidimensional religiosity and mental health. And the integrated path model was confirmed using the 'Vulnerability stress model (VSM)', which provides an integrated framework for explaining the relationship between religiosity and the mental health. As a result of the study analyzed the process of responding to stressor challenges, individual pre-dispositions, social health resources, and coping behavior as a route that affects the health status (physical health, psychosocial health, and spiritual health) of married immigrant women. In this route, five components - ① Concentration or centrality of religion ② Resources ④ Coping ⑤ Quality of life and well-being - were identified, and domestic research cases were presented for each component. In addition, analysis methods and domestic and domestic religiosity measurements were summarized for each mental health component so that they can be used in religious education and pastoral sites. This study has limitations of a demonstration by conducting an analysis focusing on theoretical search based on previous studies. For further research is needed, Appropriate multicultural family policy intervention based on individual and environmental variables of immigrant married woman was proposed in in-depth research on various mediating factors contributing to the successful adaptation of immigrant married women. In particular, a comparative study on immigrant married men was proposed.

일본 결혼이주여성들의 가족생활 갈등에 관한 현상학적 연구: 결혼 동기별 차이를 중심으로

정선주 전남대학교 글로벌디아스포라연구소 2018 디아스포라 연구 Vol.12 No.2

본 연구는 종교적 동기에 의한 결혼을 한 일본인 결혼이주여성과 자유연애 결혼을 한 일본인 결혼이주여성이 가족생활에서 겪는 갈등의 차이를 현상학적 접근방법으로 살펴보는 데 그 목적이 있다. 일본 결혼이주여성들을 결혼 동기별로 나누어 이들이 겪는 한국의 가족생활 갈등을 비교함으로써 그들이 겪은 경험의 ‘의미’ 속에 내재된 ‘본질’을 파악하고자 했다. 이 연구 문제를 위해 수도권 지역에서 가족갈등을 빚고 있는 종교적 동기에 의한 결혼을 한 참여자 5명과, 자유연애 결혼을 한 참여자 5명을 의도적 표집방법과 눈덩이 표집방법으로 선정하여 만 6개월간 비구조화된 방식, 반개방형 방식으로 23회의 심층 인터뷰를 진행하였다. Colaizzi의 분석방법으로 얻은 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 두 집단은 첫째, 결혼 초기에 시댁에서의 자리매김을 하는 과정의 차이가 있었고 둘째, 원가족 지지기반의 차이가 한국에서의 정착의지, 산후조리, 가족행사 참여 마음가짐 등에 영향을 주고 있었다. 셋째, 결혼할 때부터 차이가 난 한국에 대한 관심과 경제력은 한국어 구사 능력과 한국 음식 적응 나아가 시댁의 경제적 지출에 대한 갈등의 차이를 보였다. 넷째, 종교생활 여부는 가부장적 문화 수용과 일본인 자부심에서 차이를 나타내고 있었다. The purpose of this study is to examine the difference of conflicts between Japanese married immigrant women who married by religious motives and Japanese married immigrant women who married after free dating with a phenomenological approach. For this study, five participants who married by religious motive and five who married after free dating were selected by intentionally sampling method and snowball sampling method in a metropolitan area. We conducted 23 in-depth interviews in an unstructured and semi-open manner for six months and the followings are the results of analysis using Colaizzi’s method. First, there is the difference in the process of positioning in the family in the early marriage. Second, the difference in family-of-origin support bases influences the willingness to settle in Korea, postpartum care, and attitude to participate in family events. Third, the interests of Korea and economic abilities, which are different from the time of marriage, showed the difference of conflict between Korean ability and Korean food adaptation and economic expenditure of in - laws. Fourth, religious life was influential in patriarchal culture acceptance and Japanese self–esteem.

우리 소설에 나타난 하위주체로서의 결혼이주 여성 연구

구번일 한민족문화학회 2014 한민족문화연구 Vol.48 No.-

The Korean novels that deal with married immigrant women have increased since 2000s. The purpose of this study is to examine married immigrant women as subaltern in Korean novels, especially focusing on Jung In's <The place of the woman>, <Time with the other>, and Paik ga-huim's <Puy, Thuy, Whatever>. These novels reveal married immigrant women's dreams, hardship, and oppression in a Korea society. The married immigrant women which increase rapidly in our society are understood as the result of negotiations between the economic motive of women in developing countries and the patriarchal strategy of Korean men. Married immigrant women are undergoing multiple discriminations such as nationality, race, gender, mother-language etc. This study investigates the identities of female characters in these novels which are acquired in process of abandoning the old life style and making with the strangers in unfamiliar surroundings as well as focuses on their subalternity. The notion of Subaltern is from Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak’s article, can the subaltern speak? Based on subaltern and Spivak's point of view, this study aims to understand and describe our responsibility for married immigrant women. The subaltern cannot speak means that “the subaltern’s utterance cannot be heard to us.”Therefore, we must rethink who we are against them and where our positions are, so that our identities can consist in nomadic subjectivity. This study focusing on these perspectives can contribute to social unification by accepting married immigrant women in our society as not the strangers but our true neighbors. 이 글은 정인의 단편소설 <그 여자가 사는 곳>, <타인과의 시간>, 백가흠의 단편소설 <쁘이거나 쯔이거나>를 중심으로 하위주체로서의 결혼이주 여성의 재현방식에 대해 연구하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이들 소설에서 결혼이주 여성들은 이방인으로서 언어의 문제, 정체성 구성, 한국 가족 안에서의 자리 찾기, 상징적이거나 실제적인 죽음의 메시지 등, 여러 문제들에 복잡하게 얽혀 있다. 그러나 결혼이주 여성은 우리 사회에서도 소설에서도 단일하고 전형적인 재현체계 안에 갇혀 있을 뿐 이들의 다양한 목소리는 들리지 않는다. 특별히 스피박의 하위주체 연구를 통해 이 작품들을 분석하는 것은, 우리 사회에서 결혼이주 여성들의 복합적인 위치를 설명하는 데에 스피박의 하위주체 개념이 매우 적절하기 때문이다. 스피박이 ‘하위주체는 말할 수 없다’고 한 맥락을 살피면서, ‘하위주체의 말없음/말할 수 없음’에서 하위주체의 말을 ‘듣지 않음/들을 수 없음’의 층위로의 이동에 대해 논하고자 한다. 더불어 하위주체 연구는 ‘그들’을 어떻게 규정할 것인지, ‘그들’을 어떻게 대해야 할 것인지에 대한 질문이 아니라 ‘우리/의 위치’를 어떻게 재설정해야 하는지의 질문이어야 한다. ‘하위주체는 누구인가’가 아니라, 우리가 하위주체라 규정하는 이들과 함께 살고 있는 ‘우리’는 누구인가. 이런 질문은 우리가 여전히 ‘이방인’으로 규정하고 있는 이들이 ‘우리’에게 요청하고 있는 것이고, 하위주체에게 목소리를 돌려준다거나 하위주체의 목소리를 듣겠다는 행위에 선행해야 하는 것임을 확인할 것이다. 그리고 이주와 이산의 주체들에 대한 논의에서 흔히 거론되는 ‘유목적 주체’는 이동하는 ‘그들’이 아니라 ‘정주민’이라고 생각하는 ‘우리’들에게 필요한 것임을 제안하고자 한다.

이주여성 정책 제언을 위한 일본의 이주여성 관련 다문화공생정책 연구

임미영,박나리 동북아시아문화학회 2024 동북아 문화연구 Vol.1 No.78

Japan declared its entry into a multi cultural society in the 1980s, about 20 years before Korea, and has been implementing the so-called Multi Cultural Commensalism policy. Thus, it appears to be an appropriate reference in planning and implementing Korea's multi cultural policy. In particular, this study focused on policies for immigrant women. This is because, even among multi cultural related groups, married immigrant women and female immigrant workers are at a social disadvantage. As a result of this research, Japan's Multi Cultural Commensalism policies related to women were characterized as local government-led policy implementation, the alienation of married immigrant women which resulted from relatively high interest in female immigrant workers, the absence of a basic law and Japanese Language education course supporting married immigrant women. However, the enactment of Domestic Violence Law and an increase in availability for the Survival Japanese education including ‘Easy Japanese' and the protection policies for the aged immigrant women seemed to have greater progress in the long term. Privy to this analysis, in order to have an efficient plan and enactment of Korea's future policy regarding immigrant women, this study suggested the need to infuse ‘Korean education curriculum for married immigrant women' with more flexibility by local governments, the need to build a larger sharing system of the Korean language education along with ensuring government's commitment to female immigrant workers and the activation of immigrants voluntary council.

( Young Mee Kim ),( Ill Gwang Kim ),( Su Sun Park ),( Jong Kil Lee ),( Jae Sik Yang ) 한국체육학회 2015 국제스포츠과학 학술대회 Vol.2015 No.1

Purpose: Since 1990s, due to the internationally regularized globalization and transnationalism, the multiculturalism has been rapidly spread all over the world through the worldwide migration of physical goods, services, and human race. Because of those continuing situations, various cultures have flowed in Korean society which was comparatively homogenous, and the integration of multicultural society is strongly demanded as a social task. Meanwhile, recently the importance of leisure has been emphasized as a way to refreshing human life, and even the family leisure activities has been suggested as an essential factor for healthy homes in the ``Framework Act on Healthy Homes`` enacted in 2004. And the leisure helps the adaptation to a new life environment and culture as an easy way to learn and understand those. Thus, this study aimed to make the leisure activation policy plan on married immigrant women for social integration of multicultural families as a social problem. Method: As the study objects, this study selected total 30 professional experts who can suggest leisure activation policy plans on married immigrant women with Convenience Quota Sampling, and, they were 10 of chiefs and instructors who had run various adaptation programs to help married immigrant women in such as multicultural family support centers, 15 of professors who had got Ph. D. of social welfare and leisure and received credits for their specialty, and 5 of married immigrant women who had passed Test of Proficiency in Korean and been doing leisure activities. This study used Delphi method and surveyed 3 times with e-mail questionnaires as research instrument. To use Delphi method, this study had got prior consents of professional experts on 3 times survey by telephone call or conversation before sending the questionnaires. To secure the sincerity of answers, only the professional experts who showed active agreement were selected beforehand, and the selected objects had been surveyed in 3 times by e-mail. The suggestions of the study objects on the necessities and problems of married immigrant women`s leisure activities and leisure activation policy alternatives for social integration had been deducted by content analysis, descriptive statistics, and Analytic Hierarchical Process. In other words, the 1st survey used open questionnaires for descriptive answers, so the results were analyzed by content analysis to categorize the main factors of each stage, and the frequency of each factors were statistically calculated. The 3rd survey results were analyzed by AHP to deduct the importance priorities of each components of leisure activation policy plan. Result: The results of Delphi Survey and AHP analysis with Expert Choice 2000 program on alternatives to promote the leisure of domestic married immigrant women were as follows. First, among total 6 alternatives in top category of policy alternatives for promoting the leisure of domestic married immigrant women, ``policy direction making`` had the highest priority. ``Administrative · constitutional supports`` had second-high priority, and the others had priorities in order of ``recognition improvement``, ``program improvement``, ``management · facility improvement``, and ``participation inducement``. Second, among total 13 alternatives in medium category, ``systematic leisure policy making`` had the highest priority, and the others had priorities in order of ``administrative support``, ``leisure policy supplementation``, ``constitutional support``, and ``efficient management of program``. And local priorities of medium category alternatives of ``policy direction making`` which had the highest priority among top category were high in order of ``systematic leisure policy making`` and ``leisure policy supplementation``. In ``administrative · constitutional supports`` which had second-high priority of top category, local priorities at medium level were high in order of ``administrative support`` and ``institutional support``. Third, among total 37 alternatives in low category, ``intensification of pre-investigation for collecting demands`` to make systematic leisure policies had the highest priority. And the others had priorities in order of ``professionality · responsibility reinforcement of charge department`` for administrative supports and ``planning to secure policy budget`` for making systematic policies. In ``systematic leisure policy making`` which had highest priority of medium category, local priorities at low level were high in order of ``intensification of pre-investigation for collecting demands``, ``planning to secure policy budget``, and ``expansion of support institution and beneficiary``. Conclusion: Through considerations with above study results, it was analyzed that the best priority alternative to promote the leisure of domestic married immigrant women was making an overall policy direction by planning systematic leisure policies on the base of pre-investigation results on their demands. And the alternatives to secure leisure policy budget for expanding beneficiaries and support systems like the voucher system.

여성결혼이민자 수기(手記)에 나타난 문화 변용 양상 연구

박선옥(Sun-ok Park) 중앙대학교 문화콘텐츠기술연구원 2011 다문화콘텐츠연구 Vol.0 No.11

한국 사회는 다문화사회가 되었다. 다문화가정, 다문화사회의 주요 구성원인 여성결혼이민자가 겪는 문화 변용 양상을 조사?분석하여 한국인들이 그 내용을 이해할 수 있도록 하고, 여성결혼이민자를 위한 프로그램에 활용하는 것은 한국 사회가 건강하고 바람직한 방향으로 발전하는 데 도움이 될 것이다. 이 연구에서는 여성결혼이민자가의 수기를 분석 대상으로 하여 문화 변용 양상을 살펴보았다. 여성결혼이민자 수기는 여성결혼이민자가 자기를 표현 대상으로 하여 여성결혼이민자로서 겪은 경험을 바탕으로 자신의 느낌과의견을 자유로운 형식으로 표현한 글이라고 정의할 수 있다. 문화 변용은 ‘문화 변용 과정’(1~3단계)과 ‘문화 변용 결과’(4단계)로 나눈다. 문화 변용 과정 1단계는 한국 문화에 대한 호기심, 흥미, 신비감을 느끼는 단계이다. 수기에 나타난 1단계 양상은 한국이 경제적으로 발달한 나라라는 데 호기심을 느끼고, 한국에서 자신의 꿈을 이룰 수 있거나 경제적으로 잘 살 수 있을 것이라는 기대감을 보인다. 2단계는 자신의 문화와 차이로 인한 불안과 위기를 느끼고 고통을 겪는 단계이다. 수기에는 의사소통의 어려움, 시집살이에 대한 고충, 생활 문화나 음식 문화 차이로 인한 고통, 관혼상제 문화차이에 따른 불편함, 기후의 차이에 따른 고통, 경제적 어려움에 대한 고난과 갈등, 주변 사람들의 곱지 않은 시선과 사생활을 침해받는다는 고통 등으로 나타났다. 3단계는 불안과 위기, 고통이 완화되고 문화 차이를 이해하게 되는 단계이다. 수기에는 남편과 시댁가족의 사랑과 배려, 다문화가정지원센터의 도움이 있었지만 문제를 이해하고 해결하려는 자신의 의지가 있었다는 이야기가 나타나있다. 마지막 4단계는 자신의 문화와 새로운 문화에 대한 태도가 ‘통합(intergration)’, ‘동화(assimilation)’ 또는 ‘분리(separation)’, ‘주변화(marginalization)’로 귀결되는 것이다. 대부분의 수기에 나타나는 문화 변용 결과는 ‘통합’과 ‘동화’이다. 여성결혼이민자 수기에는 이민자인 자신이 한국에 이주하여 다문화가족의 구성원으로서 살아가며 겪은 경험과 사연, 애환 및 느낀점이 잘 나타나 있다. 여성결혼이민자가 그들의 입장에서 사실적으로 진술한 수기를 통해 한국 문화 변용 양상을 살펴보았다. Korea became a multi-cultural society. Married immigrant women who are the main members of the multi-cultural society in Korea are suffering the difficulties from the cultural differences and trying to get over them for living as Korean society members. In order to develop Korean society in the desired direction, we should study about married immigrant women’s acculturation. Also, the result of the study can be used for making Korean people understand about married immigrant women well and used for making the program for married immigrant women. Although interview or speaking can be used for studying about married immigrant women’s acculturation, this study looked at their handwriting. At first, we defined married immigrant women’s handwriting and looked at the features. Married immigrant women’s handwriting can be defined the writing which expresses their feelings and opinions and shows their experiences. Acculturation is divided to four steps. The first step to third step is the process of acculturation and the fourth step is the result of acculturation. The first step is that they feel interested, become curious. In their handwriting, it seems that they become curious about Korea’s economic development and expect they can make a dream in Korea. The second step is the suffering step. They feel anxiety and feel sense of crisis because of the cultual differences. In handwriting, there are many difficulties such as communication problem, cultural shock, nostalgia, uncomfortable feeling, different weather, different living life, different food, financial hardship, feeling hollow and other people’s prejudice. The third step is understanding step about the anxiousness, the crisis, and the cultural differences. On the other hand, there are also husband and his family member’s carrying and love to married immigrant women, Korean people’s consideration about them, the help from multi-cultural family support center and their willingness to overcome their problems. The last 4th step is that their attitude between their own culture and the new culture become integrations, assimilation, or separation, marginalization. The conclusion of acculturation is the integrations and the assimilation in their handwriting. Married immigrant women’s handwriting well shows their experience, story, sadness, and feeling through their living life in Korea. This study looks at the aspects of acculturation through married immigrant women’s handwriting which has their truth of their hearts.
