Tiivistelmä
As the population of the elderly is growing rapidly worldwide, elderly care policy has been transformed with the changing policy environment. Public supports are necessary for family care-givers to alleviate their difficulties in family care-giving. There are country-specific differences in the way that the states have rearranged to support family care-givers and to invest in public or formal arrangements according to their cultural differences. This master s thesis explores the differences in the way that Finland and South Korea relieve family care-givers difficulties and in their tendencies of changes in elderly care policy, influenced by varying cultural background. Policy documents and some acts are analyzed in order to study the differences between the countries.

It was found that in Finland, informal care by family care-givers has been developed along with policies formalizing informal care and public-private partnership is pursued to provide elderly care, emphasizing the elderly s participation in social activities and independent living. The traditional meaning of universalism which stressed common access to public care services regardless of individuals income and capabilities has been changed in the area of elderly care in Finland. The elderly care system in South Korea has been transformed from familism originated from Confucianism to the system which emphasizes public responsibility, replacing informal care with formal care by public insurance. However, formalization of informal care by family care-givers is not well developed and building partnerships with other actors is weak in the elderly care under the influence of Confucianism. The culture-specific features in the two countries have been changed over time and they continue to have impact on the elderly care system.
