과학과 기술의 영향이 일반시민들의 일상생활에 미치는 영향이 날로 증가하면서, 일반 시민들의 과학에 대한 인식과 이해에 대한 관심이 크게 고조되고있다. 과학자들과 과학정책 입안자들은 주로 반과학적인 후기근대주의문화가 시민사회 전반으로 확대되어 과학기술에 대한 사회적 믿음과 지지가 약화되고있다는 우려 때문에 일반시민들의 과학에 대한 신뢰도와 지지도에 관심을 기울여왔고 (Evans and Durant, 1995; Gregory and Miller, 1998; Gross and Levitt, 1994; Holton, 1993; Theocharis and Psimopoulos, 1987), 반면 사회학자들과 시민단체들은 주로 과학기술의 전개방향에 영향을 미치는 과학기술정책 결정과정에 대한 시민참여의 일환으로 과학 (특히 사회적으로 논란이 되는 과학적 연구와 그것의 기술적 적용)에 대한 일반시민들의 태도에 관심을 기울여왔다 (이영희, 2000; Freudenburg and Pastor, 1992;Miller, 1983; Wynne, 1991, 1992; Zimman, 1991).1) (중략)

Recently, labor unions' active participation in social issues is drawing people's attention as their concerns are expanding from the conventional wage raise and employment to others such as the environment and poverty eradication. This derives from the notion that a trade union with bargaining power is also an economic agent responsible and able to take a positive role in social issues. This paper explains through a micro economic analysis model that labor union movements can also contribute to social issues such as the global environment. Based on the international oligopoly trade theory, the study analyzes the principal-agent model whereby firms and labor unions pursue their strategic choices based on their interest and influence the implementation of regulatory policies on pollution emission. The analysis confirmed that labor unions' bargaining power and international cooperation are influential in alleviating global pollution emission and in improving social welfare. This conclusion could be presented as a basis for arguing for and requesting the participation and cooperation of labor unions to solve environmental problems discussed at WILL 2006.

Advances in information technology has brought many benefits to businesses, but at the same time, businesses are facing serious problems caused by its use such as information leakage. In order to cope with problems, companies have established information security policies, demanding workers of a company to be compliant with the policies. This study proposes a research model that includes information security awareness, information security attitude, self-efficacy, standard belief and social influences as factors that affect the compliance of information security policy among the workers of shipping and port organization. The results of this study showed that there was a positive relationship not only between the information security awareness and the information security attitude, but also between the information security attitude and the information security policy among the workers of shipping and port organization. It was also found that there was a positive relationship between the self-efficacy and the compliance of information security policy, and between the social influence and the compliance of information security policy. However, there was no meaningful relationship between the standard belief and the compliance of information security policy. This study examined to what extent the workers of shipping and port organization that have a high possibility of the information leakage were compliant with the information security policy. The findings will contribute to organizations of shipping and port who attempt to establish strategies related to information security.

Finally the effect on therapeutic flow in stroke patients variables affecting self-efficacy(${\beta}=.443$, p<.001) and depression(${\beta}=-.155$, p<.05) were the order of analysis. These result demonstrate that the therapeutic flow of storke patients was a significant correlation on psychosocial factors, future study will continue to be needed.

This paper aims to illustrate how the third generation bike sharing schemes (BSS) are operated in Korea and identify the possible factors that have made cities to adopt and maintain BSS successfully in Korea. For this, the paper selects the case of Nubija in Changwon as the representative and the most successful BSS case in Korea. It identifies three major factors that have made the city to adopt Nubija. First, Nubija was initiated as a part of the bigger project of 'Environmental Capital' aiming to develop the city as a world class green city attempted by the city government. Second, the mayor's willingness to learn and adopt European model cities of environmental capital and green transportation played a decisive role in developing Nubija. Third, the city government was able to implement BSS policy in a top-down manner so the policy process was relatively speedy and effective. Also Nubijia became a stable policy because the city has gained international reputation as a Korea's representative green city, and as a result, the city's BSS policy has passed the point of no return. In the future, channels should be made for active citizen participation in the decision making process of Nubija so that they can cooperate with the city government to develop Nubija further.

Productive welfare is a form of welfare policy that helps welfare recipients move beyond being mere objects of support and develop into members who can actively contribute to society and the economy. This aims to improve individual self-reliance, including education, vocational training, and employment support services, ultimately reducing the economic burden on society as a whole and promoting economic growth. By examining whether productive welfare is possible in Korea, this study emphasizes the role and importance of productive welfare as a solution to social and economic problems. The Republic of Korea has experienced various social problems along with rapid economic growth. The entry into an aging society, increased youth unemployment, and widening social gaps have created complex and diverse social welfare needs. In this situation, productive welfare is attracting attention as a method that goes beyond simple financial support and provides a foundation for beneficiaries to become self-reliant. This study seeks to present a new horizon for social welfare policy by examining the possibility of implementing productive welfare in Korea and exploring ways to achieve it.
