Abstract
It is necessary that the transition from "Pre-entry School education" to "Post-entry School education" occurs smoothly. This study analyzed arguments regarding childcare for buraku liberation in Osaka from 1970's to 1990's to find out a clue to solving the current problems of cooperative practice. The previous discussion indicated three important points: exchange of information focusing on children' growth, consistency of curriculum, and understanding of practice considering differences. The result of this study suggested five necessary viewpoints for better cooperative practice: detailed description, inclusion of the perspective of the child, conservation of the rights of privacy, curriculum based on actual situations, and acceptance of uncertainty.
