This paper focuses on the process of national family politics through the project of family planning which became one of the main factors that brought the structural change in Korean families after 1960's. The family planning was established under the national project which was tightly driven by the government, and the new families were built artificially and coercibly by the plan rationality. The various and diverse forms of the national family politics were revealed in the process of the project. For example, the image of the modern families was forcedly adopted in order to justify the project, the families in this period were under microscopic surveillance in order to accomplish th e project effectively , etc. Modern nuclear families were derived through the economical and social support on the families only with a few number of children, and the structural change was made through the medical technique and support. Consequently, during the forty years after the project, the size of the families were reduced drastically, various and diverse forms of families were generated, and the modern family action and value were wide spread and generalized. Through the project, the government has been establishing th family patterns and norms which were so suitable to the modernization project that the families were able to be pulled into public sphere. The family problems in this process became very serious. However the government repeatedly forced the families to be the reoresentative of welfare state through new-modern political discourses. The welfare through the family is coerced to replace the weakness of welfare state. However the family is not the subject of the welfare, but the object of the welfare. The governmental family politics must make more efforts to gave the families to be the object to the welfare.

The present research investigated the psychological nature of low levels of trust in Korean society and the role of family expansionism, a cultural psychological factor, in this phenomenon. Specifically, we examined the possibility that Koreans' distrust toward social system is, at least partially, due to high standards for trust, which might be closely related to Koreans' cultural characteristic of family expansionism. In Study 1, the relations between levels of family expansionism, trust standards, and actual levels of trust for parents, judiciary, and politicians were examined among 540 Korean adults. In Study 2, we manipulated levels of family expansionism to examine its effect on trust standards. Results showed that trust standards were higher for politicians than parents. Participants' trust standards for politics were unrealistically high, especially on the responsibility factor. Actual levels of trust for judiciary and politicians were low when the trust standards for these targets relative to trust standards for parents were high. Moreover, the trust standards and levels of trust for judiciary and politicians (relative to those for parents) were positively correlated to levels of family expansionism. In other words, higher levels of family expansionism were linked to higher trust standards and levels of distrust for judiciary and politicians. In addition, Study 2 results showed that trust standards became high when family expansionism was induced. Unlike previous studies which focused on causes of low levels of trust while assuming that Korean society itself is a low trust society, the present research investigated the underlying mechanism behind the seemingly low trust in Korean society.

Lakoff's (2002) 'nation-as-family' metaphor suggests that conservatism and liberalism in the United States are based respectively on two different sets of morality, i.e., "strict father" morality and "nurturant parents" morality. He argues that values associated with respective metaphors and political principles derived from them tend to determine certain political attitudes and policy endorsement. Using the priming technique, this study attempted to examine whether "strict father" and "nurturant parents" morality are indeed what underlie very different positions conservatives and liberals take towards people in need. The results supported the Lakoff's idea and demonstrated that, compared to priming "nurturant parents" morality, priming "strict father" morality actually led people to derogate character of those in need and to attribute more responsibility onto them for their economic predicament. This research leads us to reconsider what constitutes politically conservative and liberal attitudes and emphasizes the malleability of political attitudes.

The purpose of this study is to verify that several theories explaining the determinants of welfare expenditure is applied to the family policy expenditure and to find out if there' re unique determinants of the family policy expenditure. We analyzed the data (OECD 14 countries for 1980~2005) by pooled time series analysis. As for industrialization theory, female labor force participation rate has positive effect on family policy expenditure while population under 15-year children has negative effect, which refers to the demand of family policies is that of female workers, not children's. Power resource theory is applied to the determinants of family policy expenditure as those of welfare expenditure. Women's political & economic empowerment has partly positive effects on family policy expenditure, which is the evidence of the effectiveness of feminist theory. In the institutional theory, we verified the effect of policy legacy but couldn't find out the crowding-out effect. The theoretical implication of this study is the empirical verification of the theories explaining the determinants of welfare expenditure being applied to the family policy expenditure. We also suggested the political and institutional foundation to effectively respond to the new social risks in spite of budget constraints, which can be a policy implication.

The purpose of this study was to put forth of a future vision from examining of social contribution, future direction, and theoretical framework of home economics education and its cases of practice in educational setting. This study was carried with literature review, and results of study were as follows: First, home economics education should contribute to society through (1) educating individuals suffering from family tiredness to maintain autonomous lives free from distorted family ideology by being critically conscious of them in individual dimension, (2) educating individuals to develop a competence as a citizen to be critical of family ego-centric ideas and to participate and support communal life in family-social dimension, and (3) educating female and male students gender sensitivity and management of family life to be critical of gender discrimination ideology in gender dimension. Second, future home economics education should reinforce all round character education which let students develop their creativity and problem solving ability and foster students' wisdom of life with honesty and morality rather than merely acquiring knowledge in individual dimension. Third, this study employed Brown and Paolucci's conceptual scheme as a theoretical framework which focuses on the role of home economics education leading individuals and families as a changing agent. This framework let individuals and families to critically examine the social character and ideas provided by existing social, economical, and political systems, and to transform social character and ideas to build an ideal societal condition when there are any problems in them. Fourth, this study examined sample classroom instruction of Japan and FCCLA of United States of America to see how they educate students to become a changing agent. In conclusion, future vision of home economics education is to accomplish family revolution to sustain happy family relation and their family lives in which they feel pampered from achievement and free from distorted family ideology. For home economics to accomplish family revolution, it should strengthen education for empowerment, enlightenment, and autonomy. This study calls for immediate paradigm shift not as an occupational but as a practical-critical praxis subject matter for family revolution through home economics education.

This study explores the change of family policy in Germany focused on political ideologies and instruments of CDU/CSU and SPD. In past 50 years after the 2. world war the family policy in Germany has been influenced by ideologies of 2 major political parties. With conservative political perspectives, CDU and CSU intend to strengthen the institution family and traditional division of domestic work. Therefore, they prefer indirect support methods by income tax benefit for family as political instrument.

This different political perspectives of 2 major parties have been reflected automatically on the federal administrative system(BMFSFJ) which takes responsibility of family policy in Germany. Through the analysis of attitudes to family policy of major parties in Germany this paper attempts to be manifest the problem of korean family policy and to find implications of german modell.

미국에 이민 온 한 한국가정을(정씨 가족) 대상으로 세 번의 면담 (interview) 및 art session을 통해서 이 핵가족 및 확대가족을 다음과 같은 방법으로 분석하여 가족의 유형(family Pattern)과 관계된 이론적 모델(Theocratical model)을 理이해하고 변화되고 있는 Health Program에 있어 간호원이 "변화인자(change agent)"로써의 역활을 재발견하고자한다. 이러한 방법은 가족 및 간호과학에 새로운 접근법이며 간호의 영역이 얼마만큼 확대될 수 있는가를 나타내고 있다. (1) Toman의 Family Cnstellation 이론과 일치되는 점 및 일치되지 않는 점 (2) 한국인 핵가족에서 관찰된 비언어적 의사소통(non-verbal communication)및 이것과 Scheflen의 이론과의 관계 (3) family Theory Bowen의 "differentiation of self"와 "family projection Process"이론에 의한 분석 (4) 핵가족에서 관찰된 상호작용 유형(interactional pattern)을 분석 (5) Art Session을 통해서 관찰된 사항 및 Critique 결과적으로 이 핵가족은 사회적 가치관이 변화된데서 오는 갈등에 직면하고 있다. 우리 나라의 확대가족에서 강조된 경치관은 가족을 하나의 전체로써 보는 "우리 (we-ness)"였는데 이것은 일상사용하고 있는 언어에도 영향을 미치고 있는 것을 볼 수 있어 즉, "내 동생 (my sister)"이라고 하는 대신 "우리 동생 (our sister)"이라고 하는데 여기에서 언어가 뜻하는 의미와는 거리가 먼 것을 알 수 있다. 정씨 부부는 미국적 정치관을 인식해서 그들의 상호작용 유형을 긍정적이고 개방적인 토의방법으로(positive open-discuses) 접근해야 한다. 이 핵가족의 부부는 둘 다 유교사상이 강조된 가정에서 자라나, 이 부부가 결혼한지 오 년이나 되었으나 언어적 의사소통이 (verbal communication)굉장히 제한된 것을 쓸 수 있다. 인간의 경험들은 인간이 접하고 있는 사회와의 상호작용에 의해서 결정된다. 사회가 배화함에 따라서 가족도 변화할 것이다. "변화는 언제나 사회에서 부터 가족으로 온다. 이 변화는 절대 작은 단위에서 큰 단위로 오는 것이 아니다.…그러나 가족구조는(family structure) 환경이 변화함에 따라서 적응해야 한다."라고 Minuchin이 지적한 것 같이 정씨 부부가 직면하고 있는 여러 가지 갈등은 이 핵가족이 그들의 가치관 및 상호 작용유형을 변형(repattering) 시키므로써, 복잡하고 다양한 미국사회에서 성장할 수 있는 좋은 기회를 만들어 주고 있다. 세 번의 면담시간은 각 30분이었으나 Volume 생략한 것을 부기하여 둔다.
