우리나라는 1990년대에 접어들면서 분권화는 피할 수 없는 시대적 요청으로 모든 부문의 주요과제가 되고 있다. 분권화의 핵심은 행정 권한과 역할의 지방 분권화를 의미하며, 지방 분권의 수준은 무엇보다도 행정 기능과 사무 배분을 어떻게 하느냐에 따라서 결정된다. 지금까지 원자력 안전 규제 기능은 중앙 정부가 독점하고 있었기 때문에 향후 중앙 집권화된 규제 기능을 어떻게 합리적으로 또 효과적으로 지방 정부에 이양하느냐가 원자력 안전 규제 제도의 최적화에 중요한 과제가 되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 중앙 정부와 지방 정부간 원자력 안전 규제 기능의 합리적$\cdot$효과적 배분을 위한 원칙과 기준, 유형과 모델을 제시하고 그에 따른 적실성 있는 기능 분담 대안을 모색하는데 있다.

There has been a continuous debate on decentralization of welfare. The proponents of decentralization argue that it will enhance the autonomy of local governments and the efficiency in the provision of service. However, the opponents argue that it will lead to the welfare reduction and the increased inequality among localities. This study attempts to deal with the question, focusing on the evaluation of decentralization reform of Roh Government. The main results are as follows: After the decentralization, local governments has undergone hardships in financing the welfare service, while there is no clear evidence that the local autonomy has enhanced. In respect of fiscal role-sharing, local duties has significantly increased because of the insufficient grants-in-aid for decentralization and inappropriate formula in assessing the grants. In respect of functional role-sharing, the decreased role of central government made it difficult for local governments to provide enough residential institution for the elderly and the disabled. To improve the decentralization reform, deliberate reclassification is needed to decide which item should be transferred to localities. Regarding the characteristic of the projects, social services could be transferred in the long run, while central government should take more responsibilities for the income guarantee and protection for the disadvantaged.

This paper with Korean to promote decentralized countries, considered previous studies related to decentralization. Next, with target scholars and professionals looked at the evaluation of the degree of decentralization and the direction. Last deduced the task of decentralization. The decentralization task is first, expansion of organizational autonomy. The organization of local government determined based on the content of the job is desirable. Second, the personnel operating is secured autonomy. Local government officials and staff is independent and uniformly control. And it is necessary to recruit such as checks and supervision of the relevant local councils and civil society. Third, the financial decentralization is the expansion. The expansion of fiscal decentralization First, determined the expansion of municipal law prescribed by the regulations within the scope of local autonomy. Next, the local switch through national expansion of fiscal decentralization is necessary. In addition, the expansion of fiscal decentralization need the expansion of the local income tax and the expansion of local consumption tax.

Decentralization is a structural characteristic surrounding the allocation of power within an organization and is discussed at the organizational, national and local levels. This study examined the evaluation and decentralization direction of decentralization of public officials to derive problems and development directions of decentralization in Korea. We also derive our decentralization task. The decentralization task is, first, the expansion of autonomy in organization composition. The organization of local governments shall be determined according to the details and amount of local affairs. Second, it is to secure autonomy in personnel management. It is desirable for local governments to handle local gardens and manpower management autonomously rather than central uniform control. However, it is necessary to leave the checks and supervision to the local council, civic groups, and local residents. Third, the expansion of fiscal decentralization. First of all, the tax rate should be determined by ordinance within the scope prescribed by law to expand the autonomous financial authority. Next, it is necessary to expand local finances through the conversion of national taxes to local taxes. Next, it is necessary to expand local income taxes and local consumption taxes. Decentralization requires cooperation between the central and local governments and participation of local residents and stakeholders, breaking away from central unilateral and short-term thinking.

In both elections of 1997 and 2001, Tony Blair of the Labour Party won #10 of Downing Street. This political success had to do with regionalism and was particular due to the devolution policy that was supported by non English citizens. However, there are negative voices about this policy which tries to cope with regional conflicts by decentralizing the central political power. The paper aims to examine the current regionalism movements and the devolution policy in Britain. For this purpose, the nation-building processes of the United Kingdom and various reactions to these processes, especially regional ethnic conflicts are discussed. And the study finally investigates the future perspectives of the devolution policy and its implications for both regionalism and the national-regional developments in Britain.

This study investigates the problems of welfare decentralization reform implemented by Roh Mu-Hyun Administration and examines a policy direction for improving the decentralization. The reform has caused various problems. Local governments have suffered from heavy financial burden. Some social services, devolved into local governments, have not adequately provided as before. In addition, fiscal disparity among localities has increased. To deal with these problems, experts have proposed several plans, such as restoring the devolved programs to national subsidy programs, inventing a new social welfare grant, or introducing block grants. This study suggests that some of the devolved welfare programs should be restored to the national subsidies, since they cannot be maintained properly by local governments. Also, we need to adjust financial responsibilities between the central and local government in the national subsidy programs. Introducing block grant can be one satisfying solution to enhance local autonomy while maintaining the financial responsibility of central government. In some national subsidy programs, the financial contribution by the central government should be increased to alleviate financial burden of local governments.

The Question is to expend Non-Provide Taxes(so on Local Income Tax and Local Consumption Tax). Can we legislate Non-Provide Taxes and levy them to a taxpayer? This Paper is to study a Scheme of Solution for Expansion of Fiscal Decentralization and search Laws and Ordinance, Theories and Case Law of the Major states. Therefore This Study is to aim for expanding at Legislation Power of Local Tax.

This study analyzes the effect of fiscal decentralization on economic growth by using each province city's panel data of China from 1985 to 2008. By using Recently developed fiscal decentralization index and autonomy of local government quantified this study finds the following conclusions. The increase of inflation rate affects positive effect on Chinese economy. This is the trade-off relationship with the growth of Chinese economy by the Phillips Curve theory. So this suggests the instability of Chinese economy. The affiliation of WTO of China shows positive effect on Chinese economy. This can be translated as the real evidence about free trade theory of Classical School. Expenditure decentralization in China led to economic growth and revenue decentralization also affected positively although it was not as much as expenditure decentralization's effect. Central tax and local tax negatively influenced economic growth; and differently from our expectation, local government autonomy quantified was not relevant to economic growth.

오늘날의 과학기술은 국가전체의 경쟁력 강화는 물론, 지역의 산업과 경제를 발전시키고 국가의 균형발전을 도모하는데 있어서 매우 중요한 역할을 수행한다. 지역경제 활성화의 주역인 중소 벤처기업을 육성하고, 지역산업을 체계적으로 발전시키며, 지역주민의 생활편의 향상을 위한 각종 지역개발 사업을 추진함에 있어서 과학기술이 핵심적인 요소이자 중요 수단으로서 기능하고 있기 때문이다. 이에 따라, 각 국가들은 1970년대 이후 지방의 과학기술을 육성하고 지원하기 위한 지방과학기술정책을 지속적으로 수립하여 추진해 나가고 있다. 우리나라의 지방과학기술정책이 실질적으로 수립되고 추진된 것은 1990년대 초반 이후 과학기술이 지역경제 활성화를 위한 유효한 수단으로 인식되기 시작하면서 경제 관련 부처를 중심으로 지역과 연계한 각종 사업들을 추진하면서 부터라고 할 수 있다. 특히 과학기술의 지방화 내지 과학기술 지방분권에 관한 논의와 정책적 노력은 1995년에 도입된 지방자치제도의 본격적인 시행과 함께 이루어졌다고 할 수 있다. 그러나 그 진전과 발전은 아직도 여전히 미흡한 상황이다. 이는 과학기술의 연구개발과 진흥이라는 정책의 특성에 기인하기도 하지만, 지방자치단체 스스로 관련 정책을 수립하고 추진할 수 있는 기반과 여건이 제도적인 측면에나 실제적인 측면에서 매우 취약하였던데 그 원인이 있는 것으로 분석된다. 이 글은 과학기술의 지방분권을 강화하여야 한다는 최근의 사회적 논의와 관련하여 지방과학기술정책의 발전을 위한 방안을 모색하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해, 그동안의 지방과학기술정책 추진현황 및 지역의 과학기술 혁신기반과 역량을 살펴보고, 앞으로 지방 스스로가 지역의 과학기술혁신정책을 수립하고 집행할 수 있는 역량과 기반을 강화하는데 필요한 제도적 과제들을 검토하여 제시하였다.
