The purpose of the present study was to see through literature review if Korean formal schooling plays role in enhancing community spirit on the part of students. Seen as quite relevant to community spirit, moral schooling, students' volunteer activities and their evaluation of the Korean society were examined. Results indicated that Korean schooling orients itself to instrumental functions for personal goals rather than heightens community spirit of students. Moral schooling remains formal and superficial, and students' volunteer activities are mandatory in nature for getting good marks. Further, students' evaluation of their school, Koreans and the Korean society are quite negative. In conclusion, methods for enhancing community spirit were discussed.

Maritime safety management needs active public participations because the sea is too wide for a government to respond to all unexpected accidents with limited resources. Marine rescue volunteer organizations of US, UK, Japan and Korea were compared one another on the base of disaster management governance theory, and recommendations for the development of marine rescue volunteer organization of Korea were proposed. The advanced organizations commonly have tradition of marine rescue voluntaryism in the advanced maritime countries. They have nation-wide networks and self-governing structures. Their main activities include public maritime safety education and fundraising programs as well as marine rescue operations. They have cooperative relationships with government agencies in charge of national maritime safety management, which are usually guaranteed by legislations or institutional systems. Donations from the public are major source of their finances. Members mainly consist of civil volunteers, and get basic compensations for their expenses. For the advancement of marine rescue volunteer organization of Korea, efforts are needed to strengthen the membership of civil rescue fleet, to activate public education and fundraising programs, and to amend the related law for institutional support.
