Abstract

This paper aims to study on the trends of multicultural education in a foreign country-France,Germany, Japan and proposes the directions of multicultural education in korea. That countries carried out multicultural education from the assimilationism in its early stages. But they carry forward recently intercultural education, or education of commensalism. But they do not recognize minority rights, right to self-determination, cultural rights as human rights of immigrants. They force new immigrants to abandon a language, religion and culture peculiar to them from the ethnocentrism and force immigrants to assimilate a language and the cultures of the mainstream group. On the basis of this researches, I propose the directions of multicultural education in our country. We make an approach to multicultural education from the multiculturalism and reinforce human rights education about minority rights, right to self-determination, cultural rights of immigrants. We expand an object of multicultural education into all koreans and establish a system of equal employment of the immigrants and their children.
