대한민국은 국가경제발전의 기반을 무역에 두고 있는 대외 지향적 통상(通商)국가이다. 현재 한국의 무역은 화물량 기준 거의 100%를 해운에 의존하고 있다. 한나라의 경제 특성을 나타내는 지표로서 '무역의존도'가 있는데 2007년도 한국의 무역의존도는 75.09%로서 일본의 30.15%의 약 2.5배, 중국의 67.07%에 비해 현저하게 높은 세계최고 수준이다. 이는 한국경제 나아가 한국의 안전과 발전이 절대적으로 해양을 통한 무역에 의존하고 있다는 의미로 이해할 수 있다. 대외무역에 국가의 사활을 걸고 있는 한국에서 국가해양활동의 안전이 확고하게 지켜지지 못해 무역에 차질이 발생한다면 이는 국가 경제 나아가 국가안보에 심대한 악 영향을 미칠 수밖에 없다. 반면 최근 소말리아 근해 해적의 피해확대로 한국은 주력 전투함을 파견하여 한국선박보호와 인근해역의 해양안전유지를 위해 국제적 해양안보활동에 참여하고 있다. 이는 한국의 국가경제활동이 전 세계로 확대됨에 따라 해양에서의 안전도 다방면에서 위협을 받고 있어 군함까지 파견해야 할 정도로 위협이 확대되고 있다는 방증이기도 하다. 이에 반해 한국에서는 해양안보에 대한 국민적 관심과 체계적인 대비책개발을 위한 노력이 아직은 미흡한 실정이다. 따라서 한국은 지금부터라도 국가적 차원에서 해양안보에 대한 관심과 대비책마련을 본격적으로 서둘러야 한다. 우선 한국은 해양안보위협을 북한으로 부터의 군사적 위협과 동일한 개념의 안보문제로 간주하여 대비해야 나가야 할 것이다. 또한 현재 정부 각 부처에 분산된 해양안보 관련 기능을 유기적으로 통합하여 수행할 수 있는 중심기구의 설치를 검토하여야 할 것이며, 국제적인 해양안보노력에도 적극적으로 참여함으로써 해양의 안전을 확고하게 유지하여 한국의 지속적인 국가번영을 보장하여야 한다.

The link between transnational environmental harm and national security has attracted new attention due to the environmental crisis such as climate change, nuclear accidents and, pollution. However, both domestic and international environmental regimes are still tied to the unsuccessful and unclear notion-sustainable development. The present author argues that environment should be considered as a security matter for the effective environmental protection. If, for example, a nation committed a serious environmental harm and the effects spans borderlines, and the source nation refuses to cooperate or compensate, would sustainable development still be an appropriate measure? Then, what would be the victim state's tool to protect its own security? The present author first looks into the possibility utilizing UN Security Council. But due to its limited legality and effectiveness in this environmental matter the present author would like to propose a non-traditional but a not-brand new method. This new method reflects two new trends both from international law and security areas. First, this approach clearly moves from the military focused security concept to broader security concept. Second, this is also a shift from traditional international law to transnational law. With these two new approaches, we will find a more suitable answer both for securing national environmental security and for protecting environment.

This paper is to analyse the necessity and development direction of the ROK's maritime security strategy white paper. To this end the paper is composed of 5 chapters titled introduction; the necessity of the ROK's maritime security strategy white paper; the ROK's actual situation in relation to maritime security strategy and cases of major advanced oceanic countries; the vision, goals, strategic tasks, and implementation system of the ROK's 'national maritime security strategy'; and conclusion. The achievement of the national marine strategic vision, such as the 'Ocean G5,' is of course possible when Korea can maintain and strengthen the maritime safety and maritime security of the people. The Sewol Ferry incident reminds us that we need a 'national maritime security strategy white paper' like the advanced marine countries. In order for the national maritime security strategy to be carried our efficiently, as in advanced oceanic countries, mere should be a dedicated department with sufficient authority and status to mobilize the cooperation of related organizations including naval-coastal cooperation. It would be good to set up a tentatively named Maritime Security Council, an organization of minister-level officials involved under the National Security Council, and an executive body composed of working-level officials from related ministries. In order to successfully carry out the national maritime security strategy for the maritime safety and maritime security of the people like the United States and the United Kingdom, we need to further strengthen our domestic cooperation and cooperation system, international cooperation, and maritime security. We have to promote the establishment and promotion of maritime security strategies by the Navy; strengthening the operational link between the Navy and the Coast Guard; strengthening the maritime surveillance capability at the national level, and promoting sharing with the private sector, etc.

The Social Overhead Capital contains roads, railroad system, airports, seaport, waterworks, electric power plants, and etc. This SOC is very important, not only as a national economic competitiveness factor, but also as a national security factor. For example, 'Freedom Express Way' works as a tool of psychological warfare to the North Korea, as well as an economics infrastructure. In spite of that, until now on, we have disregarded the SOC as a national security factor. Constructing the SOC, only considering economic cost, we have not fulfilled other purpose requirement like stable national security, balanced development. When we invest the money to construct the SOC, considering multi-purpose requirement like military purpose, economic purpose, social purpose and cultural purpose, as a whole national wide point of view, the scares national resources and government budgets will be saved.

The definition of the national security is that the lives of its people and the property of the country must be kept from the enemies. The people in the country must have the awareness of national security in their mind, and the fate of the country relies on the security awareness of the people. Most of college students are to have their own goals trying to fulfil in their life. If the national security is not guaranteed, it will not be possible to achieve their dreams and goals. Currently, most of college students have been trained only for passing college entrance exams in their growth processes, and some of them are confused with political, social, and cultural identity. College students are spending most of time on the preparation for getting employment, so they are indifferent to the national security of their country. After the seminar for college student's unification and security, we will survey how much they could be changed and propose the guidelines for college student's security awareness.

승선근무예비역제도는 미국의 사례와 같이 훈련된 우수한 승선근무예비역을 제4군으로 장기적으로 양성·예비함으로써 평화시에는 국가의 부를 축적하고, 전시, 사변 또는 국가비상시에는 국가안보를 부담시키기 위해 반드시 필요한 제도이다. 우리나라가 동북아 물류거점국가 및 해양강국으로 발전하기 위해서는 필수적인 해양 분야의 전략적 인적자원인 해기인력을 안정적으로 확보하기 위한 승선근무인력의 제4군화 제도의 정착이 반드시 필요하다. 아울러 승선근무예비역제도는 육·해·공 어느 최정예군대에 의해서도 대체할 수 없는 국가필수요원이며, 특히 국가안보와 해운력의 기초가 되는 제4군의 역할을 하는 해운인력은 양성기간이 길고 비용이 많이 소요되며, 한번 교육기반이 무너지면 복원하기 힘든 특성이 있으므로 단순한 직업인으로서의 해기사가 아니라 국가존립을 위한 국가의 사람으로서 국가 백년대계의 근간으로 간주되어야 한다.

Cyber attacks are threats to national security. Today, cybersecurity threats have various types, the theft or spread of privacy and national secret, the realization of direct attacks to infrastructure and the hacktivism with political or social objectives. Furthermore, There are special situations in South Korea because of North Korea's threats. Thus, It is necessary to handle cybersecurity as a kind of national security problem. It is a time to identify problems of governance system in cybersecurity and to improve related Acts and subordinate statutes. There are several tasks for legal improvement for governance system in cybersecurity. They are improving legal bases for the roles of the relevant authorities in cybersecurity, consolidating national joint response to cyber accidents, establishing and vitalizing information sharing system, constructing foundation of cybersecurity through industry promotion and manpower development, and acquiring defensive tools by enhancement research an development. In order to address these challenges, it is necessary to pay much attention to enactment and to revision laws and to practice legislative procedure.

Republic of Korea is divided into South Korea and North Korea, creating military conflicts and social conflicts. North Korea is conducting cyberattacks against South Korea and has hacked South Korea's defense network. In the world of cyberspace, the boundaries of the borders are becoming obscured, and cyberattacks and cyberterrorism for cyberwarfare operate with digital computing connected to points, time and space. Agenda and manual are needed for national cybersecurity. Also, it is necessary to study national cybersecurity laws and policies that can create and implement nationalcyber security policy. This paper investigates cyberterrorism situation in North and South Korean confrontation situation and damage to cyberwarfare in the world. We also study cybersecurity activities and cyberwarfare response agendas, manuals and new technologies at home and abroad. And propose national cybersecurity policy and propose policies so that '(tentative) The National Cybersecurity Law' is established. This study will be used as basic data of national cybersecurity law and policy.
