Abstract

In modern society, efforts to improve quality of life and happiness are emphasized compared to the past when economic growth was emphasized. The government has been implementing various policies to realize the happiness of the people through culture. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of Cultural Arts on the improvement of the happiness index of Seoul citizens by dividing them into demand (enjoyment) and supply side by setting Cultural Arts as independent variable, unlike existing limited surveys or literature surveys, under the control of change, the temporal range was set for more than 10 years and then analyzed quantitatively by panel analysis. The results showed that the demand for cultural arts affects positively on the improvement of happiness index of Seoul citizens, but the supply of cultural arts had a meaningless effect. In order to improve the happiness index of the citizens of Seoul through supply, it is necessary to supplement the existing space and to promote cultural demand through differentiated cultural arts programs aimed at diverse classes but also the policy implication that cultural indifference groups and active participation of cultural underprivileged groups should be increased.

현대사회에서는 경제성장이 중시되던 과거에 비해 삶의 질 향상과 행복을 위한 노력이 중시되고 있다. 이에 정부는 문화를 통한 국민행복실현을 이루고자 다양한 정책을 펼치고 있다. 본 연구는 기존의 한정된 설문조사나 문헌조사와는 달리 문화예술을 독립변수로 설정하여 수요(향유)와 공급 측면으로 나눈 후, 종속변수로 서울시민의 행복지수 향상에 미치는 영향을 소득과 인구구조변화의 통제 하에 시간적 범위를 10년 이상 설정한 후 정량적으로 패널분석 하였다. 분석결과 문화예술에 대한 향유가 클수록 서울시민의 행복지수 향상에 양(+)의 영향을 끼쳤으나 문화예술 공급은 유의미하지 못한 영향을 미치는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이는 문화예술 향유에 기인한 서울시민의 행복지수 향상이 이루어지고 있으며 공급을 통한 서울시민의 행복지수를 향상시키기 위해서는 기존의 공간을 보완하고 다양한 계층을 겨냥한 차별화된 문화예술프로그램을 통해 문화수요계층 뿐만 아니라 문화무관심집단 나아가서는 문화소외계층의 능동적 참여를 증가시켜야 한다는 정책적 시사점을 줄 수 있다.
