The meaning, history, policy changes of multiculturalism of Canada, and the ways to maintain and generate for this by reviewing relating literature to achieve this goal. This study particularly focuses on the civic multiculturalism policy, which established not only the systematic foundation but also a social consensus regarding multiculturalism policy changes. Moreover, finally some suggestions of development strategies for Korea were provided.

본 연구는 체계적인 다문화주의 정책과 더불어 성공적으로 다문화주의를 운영하는 데 있어서 선두국가 중 하나로 일컬어지는 캐나다 다문화주의 정책을 분석하고 이를 통한 우리나라 다문화주의 정책에 제시하는 시사점을 발견하고자 하는 목적을 가진다. 이러한 목적을 달성하기 위해 캐나다 다문화주의의 의미, 역사, 정책의 변화, 그리고 이러한 다문화주의를 유지, 발전시키기 위한 방안들을 관련문헌을 통해 살펴보았다. 특히 다문화주의 정책의 변화에 있어서 제도적 토대에 대한 구축뿐만 아니라 사회적 공감대 마련에 중점을 둔 시민적 다문화주의 정책의 내용을 중심으로 분석을 실시하고 이를 기반으로 우리나라 다문화주의 정책의 발전방안을 제시하였다. 문화적, 인종적 다양성을 이해하고 인정할 수 있는 다양한 프로그램의 개발과 실시, 강력한 법률규정과 함께 위반 시 처벌에 대한 적용, 지역사회 기관을 중심으로 한 이주민에 대한 사회적 네트워크 형성의 지원, 다양한 언어로 만들어진 정보 제공, 인종효과분석과 같은 도구의 개발과 사용이 제안되었다.
