The purpose of this study is to classify the lifelong learning policy implementation process of lifelong learning in Korea according to the policy making decision models and to suggest developmental tasks. Korea's lifelong learning policy came to a full-fledged start with the enactment of the Lifelong Education Act in 2000. The Lifelong Education Act proposed the establishment of an open educational system as a strategy to realize the lifelong learning society. According to the Lifelong Education Act, the Korean government has developed several lifelong education policies such as providing learning opportunity for the underprivileged, facilitating lifelong learning city project, building lifelong learning culture, recognizing of experiential learning result, funding lifelong learning hub university, launching lifelong learning supporting administrative etc. The Korean lifelong system is characterized as Allison's (1971) governmental/bureaucratic, Ziegler and Johnson's (1972) legislative, Griffin's(1987) social control and Green's (2000) state-led models which make policy through the coordination between the government and the parliament and control bureaucratic power and educational qualifications. Lifelong learning policies should be managed in terms of supply and demand at the learning market. In addition, the state has to strengthen lifelong learning through supporting NGOs' activities and adult learners' tuition fee for the disadvantaged group of people.

The issue of child care in family policy is one of the most important agendas. It is the primary task for a welfare state to form such conditions as socializing it to ensure labor rights and parental rights. The aim of this study is to review any controversies in the agenda of free choice in child care. But real 'free choice' comes true when all community members as individuals are able to enjoy their rights as both workers and parents without any restriction and sexual discrimination in the labor market. But in reality 'free choice' has not been realized in our society. This study is based on the analysis of these issues in free choice - the concepts of liberty, equity and equality, the role of the state, financial efficiency and the status of women in the labor market. Based on the analysis of the issues in accordance with the criteria, I suggest some policy recommendations: adequate and sufficient child care services, the introduction of univer sal child benefits and the expansion of public child care facilities.

In an increasingly digital world, knowledge and information accessibility is becoming a key factor to personal, professional and national development. But only 5% of the world's publishing output is made accessible in alternative formats for people who cannot use print. People with disabilities say that the biggest barrier to access to the material they want or need to read is a lack of accessible information. This study aims to analyze the development policies(governance and role, funding and support, production and distribution system, etc.) of alternative formats for people with disabilities in major countries(Australia, Canada, Japan, Korea, Sweden, UK, and USA).

본고(本稿)에서는 1970년 이후 한국(韓國)의 사회간접자본투자정책(社會間接資本投資政策)이 지역간 균형발전(均衡發展)에서 담당한 역할과 그 투자현황(投資現況)을 분석하였다. 이론적 분석에 의하면 사회간접자본투자(社會間接資本投資)는 지역발전의 주요정책수단이 되고 있다. 그러나 1970~85년의 기간에 도로(道路), 통신(通信) 등 주요 사회간접자본(社會間接資本)의 지역간 격차는 현저히 감소되었음에도 불구하고 성장(成長)의 지역간(地域間) 불균형(不均衡)은 크게 개선되지 못하였다. 이는 사회간접자본(社會間接資本)의 지역격차 완화로 수도권(首都圈)을 중심으로 하는 성장지역(成長地域)의 입지여건(立地與件)의 비교우위성이 약화되었으나, 수도권지역(首都圈地域)의 입지적(立地的) 이점(利點)을 상쇄할 만한 투자환경(投資環境)이 지방에 조성되지 못하였기 때문이다. 따라서 실질적인 지역발전을 도모하기 위하여는 입지여건(立地與件)이 상대적으로 불리한 지방에 기업투자(企業投資)를 유인(誘引)할 수 있는 세제(稅制), 금융(金融) 및 행정절차상(行政節次上)의 지원책(支援策) 등을 강화하여 해당지역의 산업활동(産業活動)을 촉진할 수 있는 정책이 함께 추진되어야 한다. 또한 지역의 필요성에 부응하는 사회간접자본투자(社會間接資本投資)를 도모하기 위해서는 지역의 특수성과 주민의 여론을 반영하여 지방정부(地方政府)가 투자결정을 주도할 수 있도록 지방정부의 재정지출 재량권이 제고되어야 한다.
