South Korea's socioeconomic status is high enough to support services for the protection of crime victims. Until now, the Ministry of Justice was the only institution to protect and support the victims, but recently the national police is included. This is considered preferable, since the police is the one to contact the victims first- they can provide immediate support after the incident. Several limits in current laws and crime protection system exist. Therefore, given the importance of protecting victims, model of public-private joint forms should be considered. In premise of establishing a new relationship between the public-private joint system of justice and the maintenance, the range of police's involvement with crime supports will be determined. In the case of developed countries, the police and private organizations maintain close cooperation, appearing as substantial care and support for crime victims. Therefore this study reviews the problems in crime victim protection, assistance from the police stage, and suggest the improvements as follows. The first is to redefine the role of the police who first contacted in the crime victims protection support, the second is to establish a permanent cooperation framework, such as victims specialized police, victims protection agency, the third is to develop services for victim protection available from the police stage, and the fourth, opening Victim Support Center functioning as a temporary accommodation or safety zone for the personal protection of victims. The fifth is to regularize solution conference for victims' protection, and the sixth is to divide of roles in state organization government in charge of victim's protection and local government responsible for victim's support.

Rape myth acceptance may influence victims are treated and perpetrator blamed and sentenced. And this relationship could be moderated by victim's deviant behavior before rape such as teenage running away from home or drinking alcohol. The present study examined the relationship among rape myth, deviant behavior, blaming victim, pain of victim, responsibility and blame for perpetrator and punishment for the perpetrator. Findings suggest that participants with high rape myth acceptance compared to participants with low rape myth acceptance blamed victim more and blamed and thought responsible the perpetrator less. And this relationship was only significant when the victim had deviant behavior before rape happened. This result shows that specific information(deviant behaior) about victim could trigger rape myth to blame victim and judge the perpetrator leniently. The suggestions for future research and limitations were discussed.

이전 가능한 환경오염으로부터의 피해자가 오염으로 인해 발생하는 피해를 줄이기 위한 방안으로 자기보호조치(self-protective measure)를 제공할 수 있다. 이 때 피해자들이 서로 비협조적으로 행동할 경우 피해자들의 자기보호조치 제공은 환경오염으로 인해 발생하는 시장실패 이외에 피해자들이 자기보호조치를 적정량 이상으로 제공함으로써 추가적인 시장실패를 발생시키게 된다. 이러한 경우에 사회최적 상태에 도달할 수 있도록 하는 최선의 정책은 환경오염을 발생시킨 측과 자기보호조치를 과다하게 제공하는 피해자 모두에게 피구비안(Pigouvian) 세금을 부과하는 것이다. 만약 오염자가 방출되는 오염물의 양을 줄이기 위해 예방조치(preventive measure)를 취함에 있어서 그 죄가 피해자에게 주는 실질 효력이 불확실할 때 피해자의 반응은 자기보호조치의 예방조치에 대한 한계생산곡선의 모양에 좌우된다. 또한 자기보호조치의 제공과 예방조치의 효력에 대한 위험성간의 관계는 피해자의 생산함수 형태에 좌우된다.

The purpose of this study is to compare the current victims' rights guide, which was revised during 2019, with former victims' rights guide to determine whether the current guide improved the comprehension of victims' rights among lay people. In addition, we examined the effect of the level of education and perceived stress on the comprehension of the victims' rights. A total of 289 participants were asked to answer a series of questions to examine their comprehension level of the victim's rights and to measure their level of education and perceived stress level. The results showed that the objective comprehension level the current guide condition was higher than the former one, but no difference was found with the subjective comprehension level. The interaction effect between conditions of the guide and educational level was not found on the objective comprehension of the victims' rights. The effect of the conditions of the guide on the subjective comprehension of victims' rights indicated a tendency to decrease by perceived stress. Finally, policy implications and limitations of this study were also discussed.

This study investigated whether judgments of sexual violence involving juvenile victims vary by history of victim's juvenile prostitution, victim's behavior conforming to stereotypes of an "ideal" victim, and relationships between victim and perpetrator. The study also examined the effects of participants' level of authoritarianism and rape myth acceptance on their judgments of sexual violence. A total of 335 participants(170 females, 165 males) in their 20s to 50s assessed the degree of victim blaming and perpetrator sentencing. This study examined the effects of participants' gender and age on the judgments of victim blaming and perpetrator sentencing, and the mediation effects of authoritarianism and rape myth acceptance. As a result, participants blamed the victim more and imposed a lighter sentence on the perpetrator when the juvenile victim did not conform to the image of an "ideal" victim of sexual violence as opposed to a "typical victim". They also blamed the victim more when the victim and the perpetrator met through a chat application than when the victim and the perpetrator had known each other. Male participants as opposed to female participants blamed the victim more, punished the perpetrator more lightly, and exhibited a higher level of authoritarianism and rape myth acceptance. The older the participants were, the more they blamed the victim and the higher they demonstrated rape myth acceptance. The effect of the participants' gender on the judgment of the perpetrator punishment was mediated by rape myth acceptance, and the effect of the participants' gender and age on the victim blaming was mediated by authoritarianism and rape myth acceptance.

현대사회 환경의 변화와 개인생활의 복잡 다양화는 시민의 안전한 삶을 위협하는 요인들로 특히 범죄피해를 당하게 되면 피해당사자는 정신적 물질적으로 회복이 힘들고 피해의식과 두려운 기억에 의한 원만한 대인관계의 불가능이나 가족과 친지에게도 큰 상처를 남기게 된다. 경찰의 국민보호는 기본 임무이며, 주요 임무 중 하나인 수사도 국민보호의 차원에서 이루어지고 있는 활동임에도 이러한 경찰활동은 피해자의 신뢰와 협력 없이는 목적을 이룰 수 없으므로 이들 범죄피해자를 위하여 경찰에서도 적극적인 노력을 기울여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 경찰의 범죄피해자 보호 실태와 문제점의 주된 내용을 살펴보고, 그에 대한 대책을 살펴보도록 한다.

Purpose: Recently, crimes caused by stalking crimes have become a social issue. Following the "Stalking Response Manual", we would like to examine measures and problems to protect victims, and to examine the necessity of private expenses as a supplementary alternative. Method: The victim protection measures of stalking crimes and the police's 'stalking response manual' were identified, and problems and the necessity of private expenses were analyzed. Result: The number of people in charge of the police is 398 per person, and the police alone have limitations in protecting stalking victims. It is necessary to find ways to actively utilize the parts that cannot be solved only by the police while cooperating by entrusting them to private expenses. Conclusion: With the enactment of the Stalking Punishment Act in 2021, measures to protect victims were stipulated in the stalking response manual, but there are limitations in protecting victims due to various problems. Therefore, it is necessary to study ways to protect victims using private expenses.
