Abstract

The article provides a comprehensive analysis of the evolving cooperativedynamics of immigrant policy in South Korea, emphasizing the interac-tions between central and local governments, as well as among variouslocal authorities. It discusses the need to empower local governmentswith greater authority and responsibility in implementing immigrant poli-cies, highlighting the importance of collaboration, coordination, andcooperation across multiple layers of governance. The article focuses ontwo case studies, the National Multicultural City Council (NMCC)and the Multicultural Immigrants Plus Center (MIPC), to illustrate thepractical implications of this multi-layered governance approach. Thetheoretical implications of the case studies are rooted in the concept ofmulti-layered governance (MLG) and its application to immigrant policygovernance, providing valuable perspectives for understanding and opti-mizing immigrant policy implementation across diverse socio-politicalcontexts.
