본 연구는 정책학의 학문적 정체성을 정의·분류하고, 학문적 정체성의 하위차원에서 도출된 연구 질문과 기존 연구에서 제기된 논쟁점에 대해 학문공동체와 기존 연구들이 어떻게 논의하고 있는지를 정리하였다. 이러한 논의를 통하여 정책학의 정체성이 무엇이고 어떤 상태에 있는지, 연구 노력과 활동이 정체성 정립에 기여했는지, 학문적 정체성 구축을 위한 연구 함의는 무엇인지를 파악하고자 한다. 본 연구의 학문적 정체성은 '독자적이고 고유한 이론체계와 방법론 및 연구 대상과 범위를 가지고 있으면서(과학적 정체성) 경계에 따라 차이가 있고 구별되는 독특한 특징을 고민하면서(경계정체성) 공동체를 구성하여 학문의 영역과 미래를 회고·전망하는 것(집단정체성)'으로 규정하였다. 즉 정책학의 학문적 정체성은 세 가지 하위 차원과 각각의 구성요소(패러다임, 한국화, 공동체 활동 등)로 이루어져 있다. 정책학의 학문적 정체성을 종합적으로 판단하면 다음과 같다. 정책의 개념 정립과 이론 구축 등의 멀고 성가신 길을 회피하는 경향이 있는 것으로 판단하여 과학적 정체성 수준은 매우 낮고 그 구축은 요원하다고 하겠다. 빈약한 또는 잘못된 정책 개념을 극복하고 정당한 과정을 거친 개념 규정이 우선적으로 필요할 것이다. 정책학의 한국화에 대한 연구 요청 대(對) 무용론이나 연구 축적은 거의 없다는 비판 등이 대치하고 있는 것으로 판단하여 경계 정체성에 대한 위기를 인식하고 있지만 지속적인 관심과 연구 축적이 필요하다고 하겠다. 학문공동체를 구성하여 (한국)정책학의 위치와 미래에 대해 회고·전망의 장을 열고 있지만 공동체의 목적인 근본적 문제 등에 관한 자극은 부족한 것으로 판단하였다. 구성원들의 응집력은 한국화 등에 대한 공동 노력이 시도되고 있는 반면, 개념 구성 등에 대한 그것은 알려진 것이 드물다. 따라서 집단정체성은 과학적 정체성의 공유(자극, 공동노력, 응집력)는 상대적으로 부족하고 경계정체성의 공유는 시도 단계에 있다고 볼 수 있다. 개념 정립, 이론 구축 등과 같은 과학적 정체성에 대한 연구는 위험이 따르기 때문에 개인적 시도보다는 학문공동체의 관심과 자극이 수반된 공동 노력으로 연구될 필요가 있다고 하겠다.

This study focuses on the identity establishment of library and information science. It suggests, as a way of establishing the identity, the necessity of promoting of business environment in library and information science. For this purpose, the study examines Korean cases that have damaged the identity, and analyzes why such damage has been done and how it affects the fostering of business environment in library and information. It also diagnoses the possibility of identity establishment such as, for example, professionalism of the librarian and creation of jobs through the fostering of business environment in library and information science.

For a field of research to be an independent area of study, there must be a common paradigm that is shared by the members of the community. In addition. for establishment of identity in a study, several relating scientific communities should actively study and research, which lead to a new paradigm. Efforts to accomplish this purpose are found in Politics, Economics, and Psychology. Yet, the field of Fire Service Science have not yield these results which include active scientific communities, scholars and experts who research on the subject and exchange their expertises. New paradigm for the field is not established yet. Therefore, this research probes the origins of these problems and suggests a proper scientific paradigm and direction for establishment of identity of Fire Service Science in Korea's ambiance.

In Korea, about 80 academic departments related to fire science are in operation throughout the country, but fire science is not included as a branch science in the science classification system acknowledged by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology and its position as a science is not solid yet. In response to this problem, research is being made actively to establish fire science recently. This study aims at composing the fire service policy theory which is one of sub areas of fire science. First, the concept of fire service policy should be established, and fire service policies should be divided into different types. In addition, it is necessary to examine the direction of the development of fire service policies in Korea, and the unique characteristics of fire service policies should be described. Next, we will mention fire service policy making and participants, theories on the determinants of fire service policies, the execution of fire service policies, and the evaluation of fire service policies. Particularly, based on the peculiarity of fire service, it is necessary to explain policies on fire prevention and precaution, fire investigation, rescue and first aid, public campaigns for safety and prevention, fire insurance, etc. Finally, we suggest the future directions of fire service policies according to the change of environment in the future.

The public library is the local centre and gateway of knowledge and information. Therefore, the library should be funded and operated by local government and the governing body will be responsible for matters of policy of the library. However, recently public libraries in Korea have faced enormous policy challenges such as the damage of its identity, outsourcing or contracting-out of management, and the general chaos of its administrative system. This paper aims to analyze the current level of infrastructure and policies of public libraries and to review the wrong path and the right path of library policies focused on establishing a library foundation and outsourcing library management in Seoul and Incheon.

This Study has two research interests: First, to give a new perspective in searching for the identifying features of social welfare studies in Korea where social welfare is recognized as an independent discipline through an examination of german research trends in social policy, where social policy is not recognized as an independent discipline, but as a field of study. The reasons of non-recognition of social policy studies as an independent discipline in Germany are value problems, vagueness of research objects, and the position of social welfare in relation to another social sciences. Second, to show the trends of german studies in social policy from diverse disciplines, i. e. sociology, political science, law, history, pedagogics etc. and the common points in these studies. The results of this study are as follows. First, the common feature of german Studies on the social policy from diverse disciplins is above all the interest in the improvement of Lebenslage, i. e. conditions of life. Second, the value problems in social sciences are not solved till now, but the interests in the improvement of Lebenslage don't mean studies of social policy must handle with values. The interests in the applicability of social policy don't mean values must be improved in the studies either. Third, the vagueness of the objects can be found also in other social sciences and is not unique in social policy studies. Fourth, the studies, which focuses on the improvement of Lebenslage and can contribute to construct theories such as raising the effectiveness of state intervention must be recognized as studies of social policy, even though they are written by social scientists from other disciplines. This means the theories of social policy to pursue are connected with theories of middle range, i. e. with lower degree of abstraction.

By analysing women's identity rooted in Korean families and welfare policies related to families, this research aims to explore more gender-equal family welfare policies for the future. This research examines the change of families along with social changes, women's identity in families, the present family welfare policies, and women's identity in the family welfare policies. Social changes and the demand of market make influence on function and form of families. However, the broad social format of patriarchy persists and women's gender identity and gender role in families make little differences as ever. These women's gender role and gender identity are found in welfare policies related to families as they are. The women is regulated as dependent on male partner with the primary responsibilities on child rearing and elderly care. In addition, only focusing on families in need, Korean family policies are not generally established. Therefore, now, it is strongly suggested that Korean family policies concerning more diverse families should be launched with the gender-sensitive perspective.

The National Library of Korea, Sejong, which celebrates its 10th anniversary, has been performing the duties of a specialized library for policy information while also serving as a public library for Sejong citizens. However, there are concerns about whether it is desirable for the National Library of Korea, Sejong, to continue to provide both policy information services and public library services simultaneously. In order to establish the identity of the National Library of Korea, Sejong, and strengthen its core competencies and services, a prior investigation of the current status and stakeholder groups is necessary. This study diagnosed the current status of the National Library of Korea, Sejong, and conducted a SWOT analysis, and then surveyed and analyzed stakeholders (National Library of Korea, Sejong, employees and relevant policy agency employees) related to policy information services to identify the library's core role and identity, and perception of policy information services. Based on this, this study presented ways to improve the library's core competencies and future direction as a specialized library for policy information.
