The Cancer Control Act in Japan became effective in 2006. In Ibaraki, Toyama, and Hyogo prefectures, the Cancer Control Promoter (CCP) plan was created to strengthen partnerships for cancer prevention. This study aimed to examine the curre nt status of CCP utilization and analyze relationships with intersectoral collaboration, both within the government and with outside partners. In 2008, we mailed questionnaires to 100 administrators responsible for disease prevention and health promotion in municipal governments of the three prefectures. Ninety-one administrators responded (response rate, 91.0%). We analyzed responses to questions regarding whether or not the municipalities had used CCPs. Items assessing intersectoral collaboration examined municipality characteristics and relationships with outside partners and sectors specializing in areas other than community health. Among 90 administrators with valid data, 33 municipalities (36.7%) used CCPs while 57 (63.3%) did not. The Fisher's exact test revealed that intersectoral collaboration for using CCPs was associated with communication with all of the municipal government sectors not related to health. The present study indicated that CCPs were not consistently used in municipalities. However, we found that intersectoral collaborations, especially within the local government, may be related to the practical use of CCPs. This, in turn, may result in effective cancer control and prevention, as well as improvement in community health.

The Japanese colonial authorities promulgated the 'Nurses Ordinance(Kanhoboo Kyuchick), in 1914. It was the first act that regulated nurses' licensure in Korea. The gendarme did the administrational work of the ordinance. After the Nurses Ordinance of 1914, nurses without licenses could no longer work with the name of nurse, and Korean nursing gained a more professional status. After the March 1st Movement of 1919, Japan realized that its iron rule had to be more sophisticated. The gendarme gave way to an ordinary constabulary force. The Nurses Ordinance was amended to set the nurses quality as good as that of Japanese nurses, and the nurses licensure of Korea could also be used in Japan. In 1931 the Japanese war against China began, and the Japanese imposed military rule once again. The Nurses Ordinance was amended to 'The Korea Nurses Ordinance'. After the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War(1937) and of World War II in the Pacific(1941), the Japanese desperately needed additional manpower to re plenish the dwindling ranks of their military and labour forces. To produce more nurses, the colonial authorities amended the 'Korea Nurses Ordinance' and lowered the age and educational status of nurses to produce more numbers. Until the Japanese surrender in August 1945, Korea was under Japanese rule. Koreans had no say in the passing of these acts, and the colonial authority could make and pass any act at will.

최근 정신건강증진법의 전면 개정을 계기로 하여 정신장애인의 인권과 지역사회통합의 관점에서 개정 전 정신건강증진법의 문제점과 개정 정신건강증진법의 주요 개정 내용을 검토하고 평가하였다. 1995년 정신건강증진법의 제정과 다섯 차례의 개정은 정신장애인들을 사회로부터 분리 배제하는 과정이었으며 이를 정당화하고 제도적으로 뒷받침한 것이 정신보건법을 지배하는 의료적 관점이었음을 확인할 수 있었다. 정신장애인을 오직 치료의 대상으로만 접근하는 것은 정신장애인을 뚜렷한 효과 없는 치료를 명목으로 장기간 정신병원에 입원시키는 것을 정당화하고 그 속에 감추어져 있는 사회방위의 목적 또는 장신장애인의 부양의 목적을 은폐하는 역할을 하였음을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 이를 제도적으로 뒷받침한 것이 정신보건법상의 보호의무자에 의한 입원제도이다. 이러한 보호의무자에 의한 입원은 정신장애인의 입원 결정에 관여하는 부양의무를 가진 보호의무자와 정신의료기관 소속 전문의의 공공연한 이해충돌의 가능성 때문에 그 객관성과 공정성에 대하여 의심을 받아 왔을 뿐 아니라 강제입원이 신체의 자유를 구속하는 기본권제한에 요청되는 기본권 제한의 과잉금지 원칙이나 적법절차 원칙에 저촉되어 위헌적이라는 것이 평가를 받고 있다. 이러한 상황에서 개정된 개정 정신건강증진법은 강제입원의 대상인 정신질환자의 범위를 축소하고, 보호의무자에 의한 입원에 있어서 정신과 전문의 2인의 진단과 입원적합성심사위원회의 심사를 추가하는 등 강제입원의 요건과 절차를 강화하였다. 이점에 있어서 입원적합성심사위원회는 강제입원을 규제하고 입원장기화를 축소하는 데에 부분적으로 기여할 것으로 평가할 만하다. 그러나 개정된 보호의무자에 의한 입원제도도 장애인의 자유와 안전에 관한 유엔장애인권리협약 제14조 위반의 문제점을 극복하지는 못하였다. 뿐만 아니라 지역사회로 복귀할 정신장애인의 사회통합을 위한 복지서비스의 지원은 다양한 항목 설정에도 불구하고 규범적으로 약화된 형태의 규정에 머물고 있는 반면, 적절한 복지서비스의 지원의 실현에 긴요한 국가나 지방자치단체의 예산확보 방안 등에 있어서 불확실성이 크다. 향후 제도나 정책에 있어서 정신장애인의 인권과 사회통합을 위한 각별한 관심과 노력이 필요하다.
