지속가능발전은 인류가 추구해야할 공통의 목적이며 가치로서 사회적 지속가능성, 경제적 지속 가능성, 환경적 지속가능성의 개념이 내포되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 우리나라의 전력공급 부문에서 특히 사회적 지속가능성의 가치를 구현하기 위해서는 에너지 사용에 대한 형평성과 에너지를 생산하는 발전기술에 대한 사회적 수용성, 그리고 지속적으로 고용을 창출할 수 있는 발전기술들로 발전원을 구성되는 것이 필요하다고 보았다. 이를 위해 본 연구는 사회적 지속가능성을 '에너지복지', '기술의 수용성', '고용 창출'등 3가지 핵심 속성으로 나누고 속성 당 2개의 세부 속성 지표를 구성하여 총 6개의 속성지표 측면에서 발전기술별로 비교 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 사회적 지속가능성 종합점수는 원자력 > 풍력 > LNG > 석탄 > 태양광 순으로 나타나 원자력이 사회지속성 측면에서 가장 우수한 발전기술인 반면에 태양광은 가장 열위에 있는 것으로 평가되었다. 또한 속성별로 살펴보면, '에너지사용의 복지성'은 원자력과 석탄화력이, '에너지사용의 접근성'은 LNG와 석탄이, '기술의 안전성'은 원자력과 풍력이, '기술의 신뢰성'은 발전기술간 큰 차이가 없으며, '고용 규모'는 태양광과 원자력이, '고용의 질'은 풍력과 원자력이 우수한 것으로 나타나 원자력이 대부분의 속성에서 우위에 있거나 경쟁력이 있는 것으로 나타났다.

Urban development and densification have led to the Urban Heat Island Effect, in which the temperature of urban space is higher than the surrounding areas, and the intensity is increasing with climate change. In addition, when the city's air temperature rises in summer, low-income, elderly population, and socially vulnerable people who have health problems lack the ability to cope with the elevated heat environment. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the urban heat island area of Seoul through Hotspot analysis, which is a spatial statistics technique, and explored physical environments, demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of urban heat island effect areas using logistic regression models. This study performed urban heat island hotspot analysis using the average air temperatures of the 423 administrative dongs in Seoul. Analysis results identified that the urban heat islands were concentrated in Jung-gu, Jongno-gu, Yongsan-gu, and Yeongdeungpo-gu. Logistic regression analysis results indicated that urban heat island areas of Seoul were affected by residential floor area ratio, commercial facility floor area ratio, overall floor area ratio, impervious surface ratio, and normalized difference vegetation index(NDVI). In addition, as a result of analyzing the vulnerable area of thermal environment considering the demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of the heat island area, urban heat island areas of Seoul were significantly associated with the proportion of low-income elderly living alone. The result of this study provided useful insights for urban thermal environmental design and policy development that could improve the thermal environment for the socially disadvantaged urban population.

The primary goal of the current study was to investigate the longitudinal relationship between household income, main caregiver depression, and youth aggression from the interactionist perspective. The data were derived by combining the 2006, 2009 and 2012 survey waves from the Korean Welfare Panel Study. This data set covered the full span of adolescence from elementary to high school. The study utilized 561 families as the final sample and conducted autoregressive cross-lagged analysis. As a result, the early income status, main caregiver depression and youth aggression were likely maintained over time. Second, the results provided support for a reciprocal relationship between income and main caregiver depression. On the other hand, the reciprocal relationship between main caregiver depression and youth aggression was not found in the current study. Finally, the mediating effect of main caregiver depression between income and youth aggression was not found in the present study. In conclusion, the results of this study support the interactionist model in that the association between family income and main caregiver depression involves reciprocity and mutual influence across time. These findings have major implications for policy and interventions in regards to low-income families.

This special issue examines factors influencing quality of life in Korean society. The special issue is based on the symposium, which was organized by the Korean Association of Psychological and Social Issues on August and December 2005. A review of the literature and also contributors to the special issue draw out six important factors that influence quality of life in Korean society: (1) financial stability, (2) harmonious interpersonal relationships, (3) emotional support, (4) psychological factors, such as self-regulation and self-efficacy, (5) academic achievement, and (6) health and leisure life. Koreans believe that financial resources are necessary in maintaining quality of life, and they must be supplemented with harmonious interpersonal relations in family, school and the workplace. As people become order, the importance of self-efficacy increases in order to maintain a sense of control in their lives. In addition, academic achievement, health, and leisure life contribute to quality of life. Finally, indigenous psychological analysis provides important insights into understanding factors influencing quality of life in Korean society.

Social capital theory provides a framework for analyzing the economic well-being. The purpose of this study is to analyze the age effect of social capital by comparing middle aged and the elderly, as well as to investigate the independent effects of social capital on their subjective economic well-being, respectively. The two concepts of "trust" and "social network" were used to measure the level of social capital. Comparisons between the age groups were made regarding the relationships between social capital and economic well-being of four age groups, including younger middle-aged, older middle-aged, younger elderly, and older elderly. Data from the $2^{nd}$ wave of the Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing (KLoSA) were used. The final sample for this analysis is 8,406 respondents aged 45~84. The major findings are as follows. First, the level of social capital, trust and social network, is statistically different by age groups. Second, the model fits in the case of model including social capital variables are all larger than their counterparts in the four age groups. Third, social capital is "resource" that can contribute to increasing the subjective economic well-being. Based on the empirical results, implications for welfare policies related with issues of social security for the elderly in Korea are provided.

In Korea, in the process of transition from a rural society to an industrial society, the opportunities for women's economic participation increased relatively. As a result, the marriage age of women increased, and it was recognized that the economic opportunity cost of married women and their participation in economic activities lead to low birthrates. In particular, it is time for an empirical analysis to determine whether workplace types affect the fertility rate. To this end, we analyzed the effect of workplace type on fertility using the labor panel data from 2003 to 2018. The results are as follows. A statistically significant negative relationship was drawn when unemployed women were compared with women employed in the private sector. However, there was no statistically significant effect when comparing unemployed women with women working in the public sector.

<보건세계> 원고 부탁을 받고 하나원에서 간호사로 12년 넘게 근무하면서 만났던 북한이탈주민들 중 간호했던 한 결핵환자와의 인연을 떠올리게 되었습니다. '지금 그녀는 어떻게 살고 있을까?' 그들 가운데 가장 기억에 남는 K에 관한 얘기를 기억 속에서 꺼내보려 합니다. 이 글은 북한사회의 경제적 어려움 때문에 결핵 진단을 받고도 약을 구할 수 없어 치료를 방치하다 결핵균이 뇌막염을 일으켜 하반신 마비라는 영원한 장애를 갖게 된 이야기입니다. 영화 갈이 멀기만 한 이야기가 바로 오늘 우리와 함께 사는 탈북민의 이야기이며, 우리가 그들과 함께 더불어 살아야하는 이유입니다.

우리 대학의 리더십 발휘와 책무는 대학사회의 구성원과 정치·경제적 압력, 제도 시스템과 같은 상황적 요소들이 작용하고 있다. 그러나 무엇보다도 가장 큰 정당성의 파워와 정책 결정의 권한을 가진 총장의 리더십이야말로 대학조직 전체 리더십의 핵심 요소이자 촉매제이다. 이러한 총장 리더십의 공통적인 덕목을 집약해 보면 대학총장은 비전과 꿈을 가져야 하며, 창조적 사고를 가지고, 대학의 생존전략 우선순위를 선택할 수 있는 능력 있고 전문가적인 자질을 가져야 한다. 또한 개방된 의식을 지녀야 하며, 국제적 감각이 있는, 교육경영자로서의 CEO형 총장이 되어야 한다. 그리고 재원확보에 다각적인 노력을 하여 그 기대에 부응해야 한다.

This article estimates the economic values of changes in water quality of the Paldang Watershed by using the Choice Experiment (CE). The conditional logit model estimation results show that a small improvement in water quality from the 'status quo' level to the level of 'very good' increases average household's monthly utility by 3,157 Won, whereas a water quality degradation down to the 'normal' level gives rise to an increase in the monthly average utility by 9,649 Won. The corresponding social gain and loss of water quality changes to the Metropolitan Area were thus estimated about 285 billion Won and 872 billion Won, respectively. This article seems meaningful in that it resorts to the new water ecosystem classification criteria and indices that are respondent-friendly. They help a CE study like this to overcome one of its critical weakness that the number and contents of attributes of a CE study can quickly add to the information overload problem, especially where the environmental good under investigation is hard for ordinary respondents to understand.
