  • Withe increased North Korea's security threats, the South Korean navy has been faced with deteriorating security environment. While North Korea has increased asymmetric forces in the maritime and underwater with the development of nuclear weapons, and China and Japan have made a large investment in the buildup of naval forces, the power of the Pacific fleet of the US, a key ally is expected to be weakened. The biggest threat comes from China's intervention in case of full-scale war with North Korea, but low-density conflict issues are also serious problems. North Korea has violated the Armistice Agreement 2,660 times since the end of Korean War, among which the number of marine provocations reaches 1,430 times, and the tension over the NLL issue has been intensifying. With tension mounting between Korea and Japan over the Dokdo issue and conflict escalating with China over Ieo do Islet, the US Navy has confronted situation where it cannot fully concentrate on the security of the Korean peninsula, which leads to need for strengthening of South Korea's naval forces. Let's look at naval forces of neighboring countries. North Korea is threatening South Korean navy with its increased asymmetric forces, including submarines. China has achieved the remarkable development of naval forces since the promotion of 3-step plan to strengthen naval power from 1989, and it now retains highly modernized naval forces. Japan makes an investment in the construction of stat of the art warship every year. Since Japan's warship boasts of its advanced performance, Japan's Maritime Self Defense Force is evaluated the second most powerful behind the US Navy on the assumption that submarine power is not included in the naval forces. In this situation, naval power construction of South Korean navy should be done in phases, focusing on the followings; First, military strength to repel the energy warship quickly without any damage in case of battle with North Korea needs to be secured. Second, it is necessary to develop abilities to discourage the use of nuclear weapons of North Korea and attack its nuclear facilities in case of emergency. Third, construction of military power to suppress armed provocations from China and Japan is required. Based on the above naval power construction methods, the direction of power construction is suggested as follows. The sea fleet needs to build up its war potential to defeat the naval forces of North Korea quickly and participate in anti-submarine operations in response to North Korea's provocations. The task fleet should be composed of 3 task flotilla and retain the power to support the sea fleet and suppress the occurrence of maritime disputes with neighboring countries. In addition, it is necessary to expand submarine power, a high value power asset in preparation for establishment of submarine headquarters in 2015, develop anti-submarine helicopter and load SLAM-ER missile onto P-3C patrol aircraft. In case of maine corps, division class military force should be able to conduct landing operations. It takes more than 10 years to construct a new warship. Accordingly, it is necessary to establish plans for naval power construction carefully in consideration of reality and future. For the naval forces to safeguard maritime sovereignty and contribute to national security, the acquisition of a huge budget and buildup of military power is required. In this regard, enhancement of naval power can be achieved only through national, political and military understanding and agreement. It is necessary to let the nation know that modern naval forces with improved weapon system can serve as comprehensive armed forces to secure the command of the sea, perform defense of territory and territorial sky and attack the enemy's strategic facilities and budget inputted in the naval forces is the essential source for early end of the war and minimization of damage to the people. If the naval power construction is not realized, we can be faced with a national disgrace of usurpation of national sovereignty of 100 years ago. Accordingly, the strengthening of naval forces must be realized.

  • 제4차 산업혁명은 한편으로는 인류에게 새로운 문명 패러다임을 구축할 수 있는 긍정적인 기회를 제공해 주고 있다. 그러나 다른 한편으로는 제4차 산업혁명으로 인해 '구글 알파고(Google Alpha Go)'와 같은 인공지능(AI)이 혁명적으로 진보하면서 인간의 고유한 능력마저도 '실리콘칩(silicon chip)'으로 대체되고, 물리적 공간에서 사람의 온기를 느끼면서 의사소통할 수 있는 기회가 축소됨에 따라 인간의 존재감이 약화되었으며, 사이코패스(psychopath)와 같이 인간을 게임하듯이 사냥하는 강력범죄가 증가하는 등 사회적 병리현상이 더욱 심화될 수 있다는 우려감도 확산되고 있다. 더구나 최근의 국제 테러리즘은 무고한 사람들을 무차별적으로 공격하는 '반사회적 강력범죄'와 유사한 형태로 전개되고 있고, 이에 따라 테러단체가 제4차 산업혁명이 제공하는 문명의 이기를 테러의 수단으로 악용하고, 제4차 산업혁명으로 인해 나타나는 사회적 병리현상을 전략적으로 이용할 개연성은 갈수록 증대되고 있다. 따라서 향후 항공 테러리즘의 패러다임 또한 항공기보다는 공항시설 및 이용객들을 공격하는 방식으로 변화될 것으로 전망된다. 왜냐하면 공항시설은 갈수록 지능화 무인화되고, 많은 사람들이 밀집해 있는 '다중이용시설'이며, 사이코 패스적(psychopathic) 테러리스트들이 쉽게 접근할 수 있기 때문이다. 이러한 관점에서 볼 때 우리의 항공테러 대응체계는 (1) 테러방지법상 대테러센터의 한계 (2) 항공테러와 일반테러의 초동조치 관할권 충돌 개연성 상존 (3) 효율적인 현장 지휘통제 제한 (4) 항공보안과 대테러 사무의 협의기구 이원화 (5) 정부부처별 대테러 정보수집 기능 분산 (6) 공항 일반구역(Land side)의 보안체계 취약 (7) 공항운영 시스템상의 사이버 보안태세 미흡 (8) 항공 테러리즘에 대한 국제협력 네트워크 구축 미흡 등 여러 가지 측면에서 취약한 부분이 많이 있다. 따라서 국내 '항공테러' 대응체계를 제4차 산업혁명 시대의 국제 테러리즘에 선제적으로 대응할 수 있도록 개선할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 이를 위한 대안으로 (1) 항공특별사법경찰대 창설(조직편성 측면) (2) 공항 일반구역(Land side)의 보안태세 강화 및 현장 지휘체계의 실효성 보장을 위한 항공보안법 및 테러방지법 정비(법령정비 측면) (3) 사이버 공간에서의 '테러 대응' 역량 강화(보안태세 측면) (4) 항공 테러리즘에 대한 국제협력 네트워크 구축(국제협력 측면) 등을 제시하였다.

  • It can be said that 'the September 11th Terrorist Attacks' in 2001 were not only the indiscriminate attacks on innocent people but also the whole - political, economical and military - attacks on human life. Also, 'the September 11th Terrorist Attacks' can be regarded as the significant events in the history of world, which were on the peak of the super-terrorism or new-terrorism that had emerged from the 1980s. However, if one would have analysed the developments of terrorism from the 1970s, they could have been foreknown without difficulty. The finding from this study can be summarized as the followings, First, in spite that the USA responsive system against terrorism had been assessed as perfect before 'the September 11th Terrorist Attacks', the fragilities were found in the aspects of the response on the new-terrorism or super-terrorism. The previous responsive system before 'the September 11th Terrorist Attacks' had the following defects as the followings: (1) it was impossible to establish the integrated strategy, because the organizations related to the response against terrorism had not integrated; (2) there were some weakness to collect and diffuse the informations related to terrorism; (3) the security system for the domestic airline service in USA and the responsive system of air defense against terrors on aircraft were very fragile. For these reasons, USA government established the 'Department of Homeland Security' of which the President is the head so that the many organizations related to terrorism were integrated into a single management system. And, it legislated a new act to protect security from terrors, which legalized of the wiretapping in spite of the risk of encroachment upon personal rights, increased the jail terms upon terrorists, froze the bank related to terrorist organization, and could censor e-mails. Second, it seem that Korean responsive system against terrors more fragile than that of USA. One of the reasons is that people have some perception that Korea is a safe zone from terrors, because there were little attacks from international terrorists in Korea. This can be found from the fact that the legal arrangement against terrorism is only the President's instruction No. 47. Under this responsive system against terrorism dependent on only the President's instruction, it is expected that there would be a poor response against terrors due to the lack of unified and integrated responsive agency as like the case of USA before 'the September 11th Terrorist Attacks'. And, where there is no legal countermeasure, it is impossible to expect the binding force on the outside of administrative agencies and the performances to prevent and hinder the terrorist actions can not but be limited. That is to say, the current responsive system can not counteract effectively against the new-terrorism and super-terrorism. Third, although there were some changes in Korean government's policies against terrorism. there still are problems. One of the most important problems is that the new responsive system against terrorism in Korea, different from that of USA, is not a permanent agency but a meeting body that is organized by a commission. This commission is controled by the Prime Minister and the substantial tasks are under the National Intelligence Service. Under this configuration, there can be the lack of strong leadership and control. Additionally, because there is no statute to response against terrorism, it is impossible to prevent and counteract effectively against terrorism. The above summarized suggests that, because the contemporary super-terrorism or new-terrorism makes numerous casualties of unspecified persons and enormous nationwide damages, the thorough prevention against terrorism is the most important challenge, and that the full range of legal and institutional arrangements for the ex post counteraction should be established. In order to do so, it is necessary for the government to make legal and institutional arrangements such as the permanent agency for protection from terrorism in which the related departments cooperates with together and the development of efficient anti-terror programs, and to show its willingness and ability that it can counteract upon any type of domestic and foreign terrorism so that obtain the active supports and confidence from citizens.
