Amid global pandemic of covid-19, Korean government's response has drawn wide attention among social scientists as well as medical studies. The role of Korean state and civil society has attracted particular attention among others. Yet, this paper criticizes extant studies on Korean case which focus on the extensive intervention of the strong state and subjective attitude of Korean citizens in coping with covid-19. The concept of the strong state lacks social scientific specification and subjective citizens do not match with Korean realities. This article argues that Korean state's capacity in collecting and mobilizing digital data may offer better understanding for the successful responses to the pandemic. First, Korean state is the ultimate coordinator in collecting, analyzing and applying big data about the expansion of covid-19 with its huge network of dataveillance. Also, such role has been largely based upon relevant legal framework and well prepared manuals and cooperation with civic actors and companies. In other words, Korean digital dataveillance had demonstrated its transparency and cooperative governance. Second, such dataveillance capacity has deep roots in the long-term development of Korean state's big data management. Korean state has evolved about thirty years while enhancing digital data network within governments, companies and private sectors. Third, the relationship between Korean state's dataveillance and civil society can be characterized as a state centered push model. This model demonstrates highly effective governmental responses to covid-19 crisis but fall short of building social consensus in balancing individual freedom, human rights and effective containment policies. It means communitarian solidarity among citizens has not been a major factor in Korea's successful response yet.

Collecting, archiving, and using civil records in the private sector is recognized as part of the legitimate rights that citizens should have in civil society. However, the national records management system does not have a balance between private records management and public records management, and private records are excluded from appropriate government support. Considering that civilian records cannot be restored or restored once lost or damaged, it is clear that national attention and support are needed. This study discusses the need for institutional support for private records and has two main directions for support policies: sustainable support for the revitalization and promotion of civic records culture, and within the region for the sustainable management and preservation of private records. It was identified that a stable organization and physical space support were needed for the collection and preservation of private records. And to put it into practice, the conceptual categories and current status of private records management, and the characteristics of private records management that need to be considered when establishing a private records management policy were examined.

This Study analysis two features of social citizenship in the period of rights revolution. Discousive arguments are derived from different reinterpretations of social citizenship of Marshall. Some insist that main idea of welfare state is rights of social citizenship and the other insist that social rights is realized after doing duty. Especially the latter emphasis work obligation in which individual responsibility and duty, these discussion underlie wokrfare policy. This reserch examine two contrary discourses based on Marshall's theory, and make a close inquiry into correct interpretation about Marshall. New rights, the Conservative party and New Labour seek for ground on Marshall's citizenship theory, but these are distortion on it. Marshall insisted that citizenship constituted rights and duties but he claimed that discharge of a duty isn't precondition of the exercise of the right.

This study aims to examine the continuity of national education between prewar and postwar Japan in the context of nationalism and citizenship education by considering the direction and process of educational reform which has been a turning point in Japanese education policy. It explores the limitations of educational reform at the normative level and institutional and procedural level. Meiji Japan needed to form a united group to support modernization while also cultivating obedient people who supported the emperor, and the modern education system played a major role in achieving this task. After Japan's defeat in World War II, the nation sought to change the framework of authoritarian nationalism inherent in Japanese traditional through educational reforms and achieve the goals of democratization and non-militarization. The postwar educational reform has transformed the educational structure, but democracy and peace orientation have not been rooted internally. Under the backdrop of the Cold War, the education returned to the inverse.

With deepening globalization, various problems happening all over the world have not been limited to a country any more, but have had an influence over neighboring countries and international community. To deal with these problems international cooperation is getting important. Thus, over the existing individual- and state-centered thought, the alternative education is required to teach how to make a sustainable society and what to do for living together. In particular, current students are asked to be equipped with proper knowledge and attitude since they are to live as a global citizen beyond the Korean citizen in globalized era. This study analyzes the status of development education in other countries and in Korea, and it also suggests the use of terminology, approach to teaching, educational contents, and last but not least how to link the regular school curriculum in elementary, middle, high school.

This study utilized one of Hofstede's cultural dimension, collective dimension and validated its influence on individual's change oriented organizational citizenship behavior(COCB hereafter) with mediation of emotional regulation. Previous research on Hofstede's cultural dimensions were mostly conducted at national levels. However, in this study, Yoo's CVSCALE was used to analyze collectivistic tendencies at individual levels and its influence on emotional regulation and COCB were measured. The study distributed 200 paper based self administered surveys to employees of Fortune 500 electronic company in Korea for two weeks period. Findings indicated individual's collectivistic dimension positively influenced COCB and emotional regulation mediated between collectivism and COCB. In conclusion and application, the significance of this research lies in indicating collectivistic culture's positive influence on COCB and emotional regulation as possible antecedents of Change oriented Organizational Citizenship Behavior.

국민들과 주민들의 입법참여를 위한 여러 방안들을 제도화 한 것은 의견을 수렴하기 위한 것에서 나아가 주권자인 국민과 대의기관이 협력하여 협치를 이루기 위한 것으로 볼 수 있다. 이미 제도화된 입법예고와 공청회 청문회를 비롯하여 입법청원과 주민의 조례의 제정 개폐청구권 등은 일방적으로 법을 입법하여 수범자에게 제시되는 것이 아니라, 국민들의 의견을 반영하고 협력하여 '좋은 법' 내지 '준수가능한 법'을 만들기위한 것이다. 또한 제도화되지는 않았거나 본질상 제도화될 수는 없는 것이지만 사회적 자율과 국가적 강제를 조화시키는 장점을 지니는 국민발안과 협상에 의한 규칙제정 그리고 시민입법 및 연성법 등도 협치라고하는 시대정신에 상응하는 입법경향에 해당하는 것이라고 볼 수 있다. 현행 제도인 입법청원이나 입법예고를 포함하여 법안심사 과정중에 공청회 청문회를 실질화하여 국민들의 의견을 입법에 적극 반영하는 것이 국가와 국민의 협치를 강화하는 것이며 조례의 제정이나 개폐 청구를 실질화하여 주민들의 의견을 자치입법에 적극 반영하는 것이 지방자치단체와주민의 협치를 강화하는 것이다. 또한 제도화는 안 되어 있지만 국민소환과 함께 도입이 주장되고 있는 국민발안제도 혹은 시민입법도 입법과정에서의 일방성을 시정하기 위한 협치의 한 방안이고 협상에 의한 입법이나 연성법의 활용도 협치적 요소를 강화하기 위한 방안이라고 볼 수 있다. 법률 행정입법 자치입법의 입법을 포함하여 연성규범에 있어서, 즉입법과정에서 공식적이건 비공식적이건 간에 협치의 의미를 실현하고 이를 적용할 영역은 이와 같이 다양하게 생각해 볼 수 있다. 입법을 통한방식의 국가의사 결정에 있어서 기존처럼 일방적인 방향성을 지니는 패러다임에서, 이제는 쌍방적인 방향성을 지니는 패러다임의 전환이 바람직하다고 할 수 있다. 특히 법률에 의한 행정과 재판이 법치주의의 본질적내용이기 때문에 국가작용에서 입법은 특히 중요하며, 입법과정에서 국민을 참여시키고 의견을 수렴하고자 하는 협치적 요소를 입법과 관련한 제도개선에 적극적으로 반영할 필요가 있다.

Republic of Korea had undergone a meaningful transformation from aid recipient country to aid donor country and it was the only case among OECD countries. It became the 24th member of DAC in November, 2009. Therefore, it is required that we have to expand assistance which comes up to current economic power of Republic of Korea. However there are weak theoretical consideration about the obligation and justification of foreign aid fundamentally. These researches are almost about communitarianistic, liberalistic perspectives of view but with these, it is hard to enlarge current foreign aid into international level and it also takes a passive approach in obligation to provide. With these contexts in mind, this study proposes cosmotolitanism as an new alternative of foreign aid. This paper seeks to discuss that why we should give assistance to poverty-stricken counties and checking whether we have a obligation of foreign aid or not and the way or the extent to deal with if there is a obligation to help. Cosmotolitanism suggests that whole world is obliged with helping each other to enjoy equal rights and meet the obligation for others because people of the third world countries also have their own lives on the Earth like us and they are sharing all-global plan and future together. The existing discussion took a negative, restrictive attitude but it could mention that there is great relevance to discuss about Cosmotolitanism since it connotes the obligation for the third countries and their people itself.

In this research, one of five Hofstede's cultural dimension, Long term orientation (LTO) was selected to examine its influence on individual's change oriented organizational citizenship behavior with emotional regulation mediating. East Asian countries and Korea especially received higher score on LTO cultural dimension, meaning it valued harmony, long term relations and saving for future. Also, in today's hyper competitive and evolving global climate, the ability to adapt quickly and also to be able to control one's emotion is highly valued individual competency. Previous research on Hofstede's cultural dimensions were conducted at mostly national or large group levels. However, in this study, Yoo's CVSCALE which allowed for individual level analysis on Hofstede's cultural dimensions were used to analyze multinational company's employees's long term orientations' influence on emotional regulation and change oriented organizational citizenship behavior. The survey conducted from 200 employees from major electronic company based in S city in Korea for two weeks period and the results indicated long term orientation positively influenced change oriented organizational citizenship behavior. Also emotional regulation mediated between long term orientation felt by individuals and change oriented organizational citizenship behavior. Such results validated previous studies that indicated emotional regulation as possible antecedents of individual proactive behaviors such as change organizational citizenship behavior and long term oriented view as another potential antecedent of change oriented organizational citizenship behavior in multinational corporation setting.

The need and rationale for public participation in science and technology is widely acknowledged in academic communities and policy circles. In addition to institutionalized forms of participation, some STS researchers have paid attention to spontaneous forms of public participation, particularly with regard to social movement. This paper aims to explore a new form of public participation, which had been relatively neglected in STS studies. For this purpose, in this paper we examine environmental health issues and cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs) debates as examples of doing "undone science" in Korea. Our focus will be specifically on how environmental organizations and trade unions have both succeeded in making those issues as research and policy agenda for both scientific community and policy makers. In a concluding section, a couple of suggestions for further research are proposed.
