The fear of civilians has recently increased due to sexual crimes. Unlike other crimes, sexual crimes mostly go unreported and are more likely to be repeated. The rape cases, which constitute the highest percentage of sexual crimes, represent that 62% of the sex offenders were ex-convicts in 2009. Therefore this study examined activities to prevent sexual crimes implemented by Ministry of Justice and Ministry of Gender Equality & Family, Police's criminal management as well as 1:1 management of ex-convicts, and sexual offender management of foreign nations as the measure for sexual crimes, which cause social problems. From these, we suggested legal, institutional and practical problems, as well as solutions such as manual production, revision of related laws and special police education.

Recently, as part of the crime prevention measures that focus on spatial characteristics on the determinants of crime-causing, interest in crime prevention (CPTED) through environmental design has been increasing. This study analyzed crime vulnerabilities in Ulju-gun for the purpose of establishing a master plan for crime prevention urban design (CPTED). The 12 indicators, including demographic, socioeconomic, and physical factors, were sampled from prior studies. As a next step, statistical analysis resulted in criminal vulnerability indexes. According to the analysis, districts with a high demographic crime vulnerability indexes were concentrated on apartment complexes, while districts with high socio-economic crime vulnerability indexes have low land prices and high proportion of female population. Also, the districts with high physical crime vulnerability indexes were found to be heavily distributed commercial ones with a large number of entertainment places. However, there was a limit to generalizing the indicators of previous studies to local governments with different regional characteristics. Therefore, further studies should be carried out by establishing additional indicators considering regional characteristics in the future.

This article aims to analyze the perception of Korean-Chinese in South Korea to understand the mentality of South Korean people in a multicultural society through exploring Korean films in which Korean-Chinese characters have been represented since 2000. For this purpose, Korean-Chinese characters represented in Korean Films are divided into male and female. It could be said that South Koreans are biased against Korean-Chinese, who are considered 'others' under the economic and cultural hierarchy. Female characters are presented as 'pure' and 'frail' in the migration narrative while male characters are 'indecent' and 'brutal' individuals in crime narrative films. Meanwhile, Haemoo [Sea fog] is a story about economically weak Koreans and Korean-Chinese who were in economical conflict with each other, but were victims of the economical restructuring systems under neo-liberalism.

The purpose of this study is to verify the factors that affect the fear of crime by applying the risk interpretation model. Especially, whereas previous studies have not proven micro individual factor that the risk interpretation model had presented, This study includes micro individual elements such as neighborhood factor, perceived risk of crime, fears of crime as main variables. This study utilized secondary data of the National Crime Victimization Survey 2012, conducted by the Korean Institute of Criminology. In this study, multiple regression analysis of two stages and Sobel Test were conducted for verifying the individual influence of each independent variables and identifying the causal relationship between the variables set out in the risk analysis model. As the result, it appeared that the higher level of perceived risk of crime, neighborhood factor, crime experience, education, income cause the higher degree of the fear of crime. On the other hand, the lower degree of age was found to induce the higher level of the fear of crime. In addition, female showed the higher degree of the fear of crime than man. The causal relationship between the variables set out in the risk interpretation model was presented significantly in all variables, except for education.

Today, a variety of systems have been developed to protect women and children. However, crime rates are still rising in the Green Zone. So we need the system to protect it. In this paper, we propose a system that sends messages in real time to the Green Zone administrator when a registered offender access to the Green Zone area. The existing system is a passive data transmission through monitoring. But the proposed system when access to the Green Zone set, detects a GPS-based. Accordingly, It is expected to be able protection through to monitor in real time and manage for women and children from criminals.

정보통신기술과 컴퓨터의 보급은 다양한 정보통신 서비스 이용의 보편화와 청소년 들의 미디어 이용 형태에 큰 변화를 가져왔지만, 지적 재산권의 침해, 사생활 침해, 불건전 정보 유통, 컴퓨터시스템 파괴 등 정보통신윤리측면에서 문제를 야기 시키고 있다. 위와 같 은 문제점을 해결해 나가기 위하여 대구·경북지역의 청소년들을 대상으로 정보통신윤리의식 에 관한 실증조사를 실시한 결과, 정보통신윤리의식은 여성이 남성보다 높고, 학력별로는 고등학생이 대학생보다 높고, 거주지역 벼로는 중소도시의 청소년들이 대도시보다 상대적으 로 높은 윤리의식을 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 컴퓨터 이용시간이 많을수록, 그리 고 컴퓨터 사용경력이 많을수록 불건전 정보유통에 대한 윤리의식은 낮은 결과를 보이고 있 다. 컴퓨터범죄와 일반범죄와의 인식차이는 여성이 남성보다 인식정도가 높게 나타났으며, 불건전정보 유통 경험에 대한 윤리의식은 고등학생이 대학생보다 높은 것을 알 수 있다.

강력범죄의 증가로 사회가 예전보다 더 어수선해지고, 정부당국이 경찰등의 치안인력 강력배치에도 불구하고, 여성 및 노약자의 안전불감증은 날로 더 증가하고있다. 이에 따라 우리는 요즘 IT 발전의 혁명인 스마트폰을 통해 자신의 안전을 보완할수 있는 매개체를 만들어 다수의 사용자에게 공급하고 이를 토대로 여성 및 노약자가 성적범죄로부터 보다 자유로워지고, 나아가 해당 강력범죄의 발생을 감소하는 효과에 이바지 하기 위해 GPS기반의 위치추적 및 알림서비스 어플리케이션을 제작하게 되었다.

The interest in the prevention of sex crimes and social secure is growing as the number of cases by sexual offences becomes higher. Although various punishable ways have been introduced so far, increasing sex crime is still going on. Thus, effectiveness of legal systems for preventing crimes is questionable. More recently, the approach for environmental criminology has been paid attention for reducing criminal opportunities through environmental design and management of crimes. This study attempts to look over the spatial distribution of sexual crimes in the context of environmental criminology, and examine the correlation between regional environmental factors and the occurrence of sexual crimes empirically. To do this, we visualized the map for sex crimes at the macro-scale and explored the spatial distribution of sexual crimes and spatial clusters based on various spatial statistics using sex crime data published online by the ministry of gender equality and family. Also, we derived the environmental characteristics of sexual crimes by multivariate regression analysis on a large number of explanatory variables of regional environment. Our results will help to understand the current situation and spatial aspects of sex crimes in the nation more realistically. Further, it is respected that our results might be useful basic information for establishing regional policies and plans for the prevention of the sexual crime and enhanced public policing.

The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship between general fear of crime and specific fear of crime. Also, it is to suggest the way of analyzing fear of crime by summing up the two concepts. This study finds a reason why fear of crime varies from person to person within the same sex and similar age group. In particular, this study intends to analyze the models that affect fear of crime to figure out which is relevant to those in the high-risk group. And with the results, we can devise measurements to effectively reduce fear of crime in a local community. The following facts have been found in this study: positive correlation between general fear of crime and specific fear of crime, method of subdividing group with fear of crime, models that affect fear of crime and sub-items that greatly relate to high-risk groups.
