―モスクワ市の取り組みを中心として―

抄録

  Recently, the number of immigrants from CIS nations has increased greatly in Russia because of a decreasing domestic population. Therefore various measures are executed in Russia. As in Japan, the numbers of foreigners who stay for a long term is increasing. As in Japan, there is demand in Russia for education of the children of migrants in the language of the host nation and in the migrants' mother tongue. The purpose of this paper is to analyze whether experience in Moscow holds any lessons for Japan.

  First of all, this paper analyzes the liberalization of Russian immigration policy. Next, the paper considers the approach taken towards bi-lingual education in Moscow City of the children of migrants who have limited ability in the Russian language. The paper focuses on the time period since the changes in immigration policy following the independence of the Russian Federation.

  Finally, I analyze the present conditions of bi-lingual education for children of migrant and minority races in Moscow City based on a survey conducted in the Tartar's school and the school with an Azerbaijani component. In addition, the author of this paper considers the background and current state of “Russian language school” institutionalized with new migrant control policy.

  These problems are analyzed from the aspect of the multicultural education.
