  • The development of the biomedical science and technology has extended an argument about a status in constitutional law of unborn human life and a protection of the potential human life to that of an embryo and a gamete beyond a fetus. This argument has been focused on whether we should provide unborn or potential human life with human dignity and the right to life that are guaranteed by the constitutional law altogether or separately. If the right to life is given to unborn or potential human life, on what grounds can we restrict this right. Those who argue for the unity of the right to life with human dignity and the inseparability of those two claims that the right to life in itself should be guaranteed absolutely. According to the constitutional law, however, any constitutional right of the human person within the protection of essential part of the right can be compared with each other and restricted with some valid reasons from the legal perspective. This measure is unavoidable in reality because one right can come into conflict with another right frequently. Since fetus and embryo are in a process of developing into the human person, it is difficult to think that they are the same with the human person. For that reason, it is hard to consider that the right to life of fetus or embryo is the same with that of the human person. However, since a fetus has a special status as a potential human person, and an embryo also has a special value as a potential fetus upon an implantation, the right to life of fetus or embryo should be judged differently according to the stage of their development. A study on a constitutional status and protection of a fetus and an embryo is essential because unborn or potential human life is the origin of human person. Therefore, we have to make much account of their right to life and seek the legal respect for their inherent value.

  • 헌법재판소가 2012년 8월 23일 낙태죄 규정을 합헌으로 결정한 이후에도 낙태죄 폐지에 대한 논란은 지속되어 왔다. 낙태죄의 존폐논란은 최근에만 일어난 일이 아니라 이미 형법제정 당시부터 있었던 것으로, 대한민국의 근대입법과정과 역사를 같이 한다. 당시 형법제정과정에서 낙태죄의 전면삭제를 주장하면서 수정안을 제출했던 의원들은 사회·경제적 적응사유를 핵심적인 제안이유로 제시하기도 하였다. 이후 개발독재기에도 낙태죄의 폐지가 논의되었으나, 이는 여성의 인권을 보장하기 위한 것이 아니라, 박정희 독재정권의 '산아제한', '가족계획'이라는 국책사업과 관련이 있었다. 이후 인공임신중절을 제한적으로나마 허용하는 「모자보건법」의 제정은 유신으로 국회가 해산된 후 입법권을 대신하게 된 비상국무회의에서 1973년 2월 8일 이루어졌고, 1973년 5월 10일부터 시행되었다. 그나마 일부라도 낙태의 합법화를 포함하는 「모자보건법」이 가능했던 배경은 당시 유신독재가 어떠한 이견도 허락하지 않았기 때문에, 종교계에서도 반대 의견을 표명하기 어려웠기 때문일 것으로 보인다. 이렇게 제정된 「모자보건법」은 지금까지 약간의 수정만을 거치며 그대로 유지되어왔다. 낙태죄 존폐론의 논거들도 형법제정 당시와 큰 차이 없이 그대로 평행선을 달려왔다고 볼 수 있다. 2012년 8월 23일 헌법재판소의 결정에서도 합헌의견과 위헌의견이 4:4로 팽팽하게 맞섰었다. 다만 헌법재판소의 위헌결정을 위한 정족수를 채우지 못하여 합헌으로 결정하였다. 이 낙태죄 폐지 논쟁은 이번 헌법재판소의 헌법불합치 결정으로 일단락되었고, 국회는 새로운 입법이라는 과제를 부담한다. 즉 국회는 적어도 2020년 12월 31일까지 개선입법을 이행하여야 하고, 그때까지 개선입법이 이루어지지 않으면 낙태죄조항들(「형법」 제269조제1항, 제270조제1항)은 2021년 1월 1일부터 효력을 상실한다. 따라서 아래에서 우선 형법상 낙태죄 규정에 대한 헌법재판소 헌법불합치 결정의 논거가 무엇인지를 살펴보고(II), 과거의 헌법재판소와 대법원의 논증구조와 어떠한 점에서 차이를 가지는지, 그리고 헌법재판소 헌법불합치 결정에서 나타난 쟁점을 무엇인지를 검토한 후(III), 헌법재판소가 제시한 기준에 따른 입법재량의 범위 안에서 입법방향과 이미 제출된 「형법」과 「모자보건법」의 개정안에 대하여 검토(IV)하였다.

  • 본 연구는 1987년 헌법재판소 출범이후 청구된 사회복지법 관련 헌법판례를 분석함으로써, 사회복지제도의 실시와 관련되어 어떠한 법생활적 갈등이 제기되고 있으며, 판결결과에서 나타난 헌법의 적용과 해석이 어떠하였는지를 고찰하고자 하였다. 분석에 활용된 헌법판례는 총 62건이었으며, 이 중 요건미충족 등으로 각하된 40건을 제외한 22건의 판례에 대해 내용분석을 수행하였다. 분석결과 22건의 헌법재판 판례는 국민건강보험법 9건, 산업재해보상보험법 6건, 국민연금법 4건, 국민기초생활보장법 2건, 사외복지사업법 1건이었다. 판례의 주된 내용으로, 내용적 측면에서는 제도의 운영원리와 적용대상, 급여의 수준 및 급여수급 제한조건 사외복지서비스조직과 재정에 관련된 법률 규정들이 재산권과 평등권, 행복추구권 인간다운 생활 보장권 등의 기본권 침해와 관련된 판례가 주를 이루었다. 또한 절차적 측면에서는 권리구제절차 등이 재판청구권, 위임입법의 한계 등을 위배했는지의 여부를 심사하는 판례였다. 한편, 판결결과를 통해서 사외복지법과 관련된 우리나라의 헌법은 사회연대를 통한 복지국가주의와, 사회적 시장경제주의를 기본원리로 하여 사외복지제도의 시행을 제도보장으로 하고 있는 한편, 구체적인 제도시행의 내용에 있어서는 입법부와 행정부의 광범위한 재량을 인정하는 경향을 발견할 수 있었다.

In addition, the constitutionality review system, the establishment of the National Security Council, the constitutional status of socialist public property and private property and the adjustment of major economic system has become a hot topic in the theory field. In the history node towards a socialist country ruled by law, the theory and practice of the China indeed have the academic ideas, value position and path model differences, which will delay the Chinese constitutional development, but also is the necessary pain in the process of moving towards the rule of law in China. Indeed, how to the development and where to go in the future of Chinese constitutionalism itself has sample value, which deserves rational attention and in-depth inquiry from Chinese and Western academics.

  • Under the existing law, an act included in medical practice by medical personnel seems to be irrelevant to whether the act concerned in the "Life World" is in the category of medical practice. In spite of the act having been done according to the custom for a long time, and generally done by individuals in the "Life World", these kinds of acts have been banned by law, because if these acts were done by the general individuals, it would be considered as harmful behavior to human life and body. And it is not sure that individuals know such a ban or notification. This cause a "Mistake of Law". Also it is happened if someone knows the existence of law but believes that his/her act is not included. For treating the problem of "Mistake of Law" of unlicensed medical act, in this study I inquired thoroughly into the category and regulation of unlicensed medical act, uncertainty of the Medical Services Law the first Section of Article 27, the prohibition of unlicensed medical act. The "Composition Condition" of the first Section of Article 27 of the Medical Services Law is not certain, it doesn't meet the "Doctrine of Clearance", and it cause the "Mistake of Law". Also it doesn't meet standardization of constitutional state. An exceptional decision of Pusan District Court, the debate about unlicensed medical practice, constitutional decision on unlicensed medical practice of the Constitutional Court of Republic of Korea and point of view of support of regulation. Also I examined the problem of "Mistake of Law" that the regulation of unlicensed medical practice has. I tried to solve uncertainty of "Composition Condition" and proposed a direction of regulation for solving the "Mistake of Law" and the use of existing law.

  • This paper aims to emphasize the necessity of beginning and developing judicial politics in Korea. Law is constitutive of politics, and judicial politics is vital in understanding how politics is influenced by law. Disappointingly, social science in Korea has not recognized the importance of judicial politics. Judicial branch in Korea does not have the capacity to constrain the executive or other government agencies governed by elected officials. The rule of law does not work. Judicial politics has not yet been introduced in Korea, despite its enormous importance in shaping political economy. The rule of law and courts are believed to be the institutional foundation for economic growth. Law embodied in "no one is above the law" is recognized to provide fairness and stability with a democracy. Little attention to judicial politics results in leaving behind a missing link in a polity. The fortification of the rule of law is necessary to make democracy consolidated in Korea, as shown in impeachment of former president Park Geunhae. A new scholarship in Korea on judicial politics is in need to discuss what conditions under which the rule of law is possible and how to make it sustainable.

  • Owing to the development of Biotechnology, the involvement of humans in life before birth has been increasing. This means the need for the protection of unborn life takes on new importance. The respect for life and human beings which is based on fundamental constitutional principle should still be respected under civil law. This study examines how methods of respect for life are embodied in civil liability law. In particular, it enunciates the protection of unborn life within time-flow. Lastly, it studies the instruments of the civil liability law and the extent of protection for a fetus from the process of fertilization of an ovum by a sperm, development into an embryo and implantation. Especially, it looks into when and how the subject of the right changes. Besides, it critically scrutinizes the opinions of leading case lawyers and the Constitutional Court which conclude that, in order for a fetus to become the subject of Damage law, it is required to be born alive to comply with precedent. Furthermore, it suggests an alternative interpretation theory.

  • A medical malpractice case requires special legal protection, considering its characteristics, such as seriousness and long term effects of its damages, medical information asymmetry between practitioners and patients, and difficulties in realization of liability. Taking the points above into consideration, Medical Malpractice Arbitration Act of 2012(MAA) has legislative intent to protect the rights of the injured from medical malpractice, while protecting the stability of medical practice by providing arbitration as an alternative dispute resolution. However, constitutional review is required for one new scheme of compensation for medical injuries during delivery, which is implemented in MAA of 2012, especially with regard to freedom to exercise occupation, property, equality under the Constitution. Two important aspects are 1. according to the law, absolute liability applies to compensation for damages during delivery without negligence of practitioners; and 2. the practitioner bears some portion of the cost, 30% in the law above. This article aims to analyze this new institution in various aspects of the Constitution, and, as a result, it does not comply with constitutional criteria.

  • 2005년 1월 1일 국회를 통과한 '신문등의자유와기능보장에관한법률'(이하 신문법)은 시민언론단체의 신문법안과 비교하면 상당히 후퇴했다고 볼 수 있다. 편집자율성을 보장하기 위한 두 가지 장치 중 신문사 소유지분 분산 규정은 사라졌고 편집위원회(편집규약)는 임의기구가 되었다. 결국, 신문법은 '절반의 성공'만을 거둔 법이라는 비판을 받기도 했다. 그렇지만 신문법은 여론다양성 보장을 위해 신문시장의 시장지배적 사업자 추정 요건을 일반 상품 시장보다 강화하고 신문산업 진흥을 위한 신문발전위원회, 신문발전기금 신문유통원의 설치를 제도화하는 등 나름대로 의미가 있다고 볼 수 있다. 신문법이 시행되자 동아일보, 조선일보 등이 신문법 헌법소원을 제기하였고 이에 대한 헌법재판소의 판결이 이루어질 예정이어서 신문법의 위헌 여부가 관심의 대상이 되고 있다. 이 논문에서는 조선일보가 제기한 '신문법 위헌소원 청구이유 보충서'(이하 청구서)의 내용을 중심으로 신문법 위헌 논쟁의 주요 쟁점을 검토하였다.
