This study purports to empirically examine the potential effect of the level of social trust on their welfare consciousness level. Although previous studies in the field have focused on socio-economic or class-oriented variables, the accumulated results have shown that the effects were inconsistent at best in Korean context. In order to overcome the limits of theoretical assumptions from mainstream Marxists and institutionalists, this study suggests the relative autonomy of social consciousness and its independent effect on welfare consciousness. The analysis shows that both foundational variables, income levels and labor market participation, and the level of social trust have significant impacts upon the respondents' level of welfare consciousness.

The growth of cheap, industrial, mass-production-so-called "fast fashion"-has led to dramatic increases in levels of consumption. Inexpensive products tend to foster unsustainable consumption behaviors, which negatively impact the environment and increase pressure to obtain goods at lower and lower prices; this, in turn, has the competitive effect of decreasing wages. This study focused on the concept of socially responsible consciousness in relation to fashion products. Environmental and labor issue concerns were employed as major variables. Empirical data were collected from males and females, between the ages of 10 and 50. Demographic differences were found in SR consciousness. For example, participants in their 10s, 40s, and 50s had higher levels of SR consciousness than those in their 20s and 30s. In addition, consumers' levels of environmental and labor issue concerns had varying effects on the criteria they used to select clothing. Product category type was also an influential factor. Moreover, the analysis showed that SR consciousness was less important in the apparel industry than in the food sector. The study also found an attitude-behavior link in relation to the concept of SR consciousness. The link was stronger for environmental concerns than for labor issue concerns. This study aimed to develop a better understanding of current customers' characteristics and levels of SR consciousness.

This study is about the relationship between traditional familism and welfare consciousness in Korea. Traditional familism is known as the value that most Koreans share with, and the impeding value for welfare program development. Strong family solidarity and family-centered perception among Koreans influences other social values and ideology. Especially, care of the family members is understood as a family duty and responsibility. And this inhibits Koreans to develop welfare consciousness and further to develop welfare programs at the governmental level. Thus, this study purposes to explore the relationship between the two. The sample of 1,131 men and women was selected in Seoul area. As a result, traditional familism is found to be quite influential to welfare consciousness among Koreans. First, perception of welfare institution is strongly related with welfare consciousness. The respondents in high familism group showed low welfare consciousness. Second, state-friendly welfare responsibility was shown low in the group of high familism for the aged and youth. In the same context, for the disabled and the unemployed, state-friendly welfare responsibility was shown high in the group of low familism. Lastly, the relationship between familism and the welfare need was not apparent. Such results make possible to conclude that traditional familism among Korean is still influential to welfare consciousness and welfare ideology. However, although this conclusion should not be used for an excuse to avoid state responsibility but used as a tool to develop a welfare model to strengthen family function as one solid family.

The main purpose of this study is to examine the awareness of poverty cause on the welfare perception, and to verify the moderating effect of trust in government on the relationship between the awareness of poverty cause and welfare perception. To this end, 2,027 members over the age of 20 who completed the supplementary survey were analyzed using data from Korean Welfare Panel in 2019(14th). To analyze, we conducted a hierarchial regression analysis and confirmed the explanatory force change. As a result of that: First, among the sub-factors of awareness of poverty cause, the awareness of individual responsibility showed negative influence on welfare perception, while the awareness of social structure responsibility and fate showed a positive influence. Second, trust in government showed a positive influence on welfare perception. Third, the moderating effect of trust in government has been partially verified. In other words, among the sub-factors of awareness of poverty cause, it was significant in the relationship between awareness of individual responsibility and welfare perception, and social structure responsibility theory and welfare perception. From this result, it was confirmed that the reinforcement of social capital, such as trust in government, as well as attitudes toward the cause of poverty, is very important to improve the welfare perception of social members. Based on this results, this study has proposed the implications, discussions and limitations of the study.

Interest in sustainable management based on the stakeholder perspective is expanding not only within an organization but also across the supply chain. For large companies that have established networks, sustainability management of the supply chain is now a factor that not only determines the social performance of the company as a whole, but also determines its long-term competitive position. Despite these changes in the business world, especially the proliferation of the sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) system, systematic research on SSCM has been lacking. In particular, there was a lack of empirical analysis on which factors promoted the establishment of the SSCM system for large companies and what's the effects of SSCM. In this regard, this study analyzes i) the impact of the social responsibility pressure of customers as external stakeholders and the CSR orientation of purchasing managers as internal stakeholders on supply chain transparency and partnership cooperation respectively, and ii) whether supply chain transparency and partnership cooperation can enhance corporate reputation. The samples used in this study were 69 large companies representing Korea. The results showed that the social responsibility pressure of customers and the purchasing manager's CSR orientation were positively related to the transparency of the supply chain. However, for partnership cooperation, only the purchasing manager's CSR orientation was found to have a positive and significant effect. Meanwhile, both supply chain transparency and partnership cooperation were positively related to the corporate reputation. At the end of the study, discussions on the implications of the results and future research directions will be presented.

비점오염원 관리는 점오염원과는 달리 사전예방적 토지에 기반을 둔 주민의 참여가 중요해지는 환경적 사회적 여건변화에 따라 국민의 환경관리 의식을 제고시키기 위해서 보다 적극적인 환경보전의무를 도출할 필요가 있다. 대부분의 비점오염원은 정상적인 사회 및 경제활동에도 지속적으로 발생하여 축적되어 있다가 강우시 배출되고 있다. 또한 비점오염원의 특성상 오염원인자가 매우 많으며, 특정 원인자만을 지목하기 어려우며 특정 시설에 대한 책임만 고려하기 보다는 오염물질과 그에 따른 행위책임을 함께 부여하는 것이 타당하다.

오늘날 컴퓨터는 우리 사회 전 분야에 걸쳐 중요한 기능을 담당하고 있으며, 20세기 초에 컴퓨터가 만들어진 이후로 인류사회는 여러 분야에서 이들 컴퓨터에 의한 새로운 조류를 경험하고 있다. 이들 정보화의 도래는 우리의 생활 전반을 변화시키고 있으며, 이들 변화의 물결 속에서 우리는 긍정적인 영향과 아울러 부정적인 영향이 동시에 공존하는 사회를 경험하고 있다. 특히, 컴퓨터의 발달과 정보화 시대의 도래는 무한한 정보를 공유할 수 있는 유익한 공간을 제공하는 동시에 프라이버시 침해 등 많은 범죄의 온상이 되는 공간을 제공하는 이중성을 보이고 있다. 우리의 선택여하에 관계없이 이미 우리는 정보화 환경에 속하게 되었으며, 이로써 발생되는 많은 문제점을 인식하고 해결해 나가야할 책임과 의무가 불가피한 것으로 여겨진다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 컴퓨터 사용에 있어서의 많은 폐해들을 기술적인 측면을 뛰어넘어 보다 근본적인 문제인 윤리의식에 초점을 맞추어 그 대응방안 및 해결책을 모색하고자 하였다. 즉, 컴퓨터 윤리의식에 대한 학자들의 많은 논쟁들을 비교분석하고 나아가 바람직한 도덕적 미래를 위해 가능하거나 필요한 현실적 노력들을 제시하도록 한다.

최근 기업들은 인적·물적 손실, 수입감소, 배상책임 등의 위기에 직면하고 있다 실제 경영에서는 가시적으로 나타나고 있지 않으나, SHE(Safety of Health & environment)과 이상기후 및 기상변동에 의한 대형사고, 자연재해가 증가하고 있다. 각종 대형사고, 공해문제, 소비자문제 등은 기업의 내·외에서 발생하고 있는 문제들이 기업의 부도덕한 행위로 인식되면서 기업의 사회적 책임을 묻는 사례는 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 이러한 결과는 기업에 대한 부정적 국민의식과 함께 사소한 일이라도 쟁의 소송으로 발전하거나 단순한 종업원 개인이 기업외부에서 일으킨 사고까지 기업이미지와 직결되고 있다(중략)
