  • 현재 우리나라는 대리모 출산을 둘러싼 가족법이나 모성추정의 법안이 없고, 사회적으로도 대리모 관련 문제들이 언론에서 보도는 된 적이 있지만 이러한 논의를 지속적으로 행해지는 못했다. 생명윤리 및 안전에 관한 법률의 제정과정에서 초기에 논의는 있었지만 이를 법안으로 수용하지 못하여 법적으로나 윤리적으로도 매우 곤란한 문제가 제기되고 있는 실정이다. 그동안 법적인 해석의 어려움과 윤리상의 문제에도 불구하고, 대리모 출산은 음성적으로 공공연히 행해지고 있고, 이에 대하여 최근까지 우리의 법률은 공서양속에 반한다는 이유로 그 법률행위의 무효를 선언하고 있는데 불과하다. 따라서 대리모계약의 문제는 공서양속에 반한다고 무효화하여 방치하기엔 대리모권리와 그 계약에 의해 출생한 자의 복리의 문제가 심각한 사회문제를 일으킬 수 있다고 본다. 이제는 대리모계약의 문제에 대한 법적, 의학적인 대책이 강구되어야 할 때라고 본다. 따라서 이와 관련하여 본 논문에서는 대리모계약에 따른 여러 문제를 해결하기 위하여, 먼저 대리모계약의 문제점을 고찰함과 동시에, 대리모계약에 대한 각국의 입법례를 이를 바탕으로 우리나라의 대리모에 대한 입법론을 제시하고자 한다.

  • 인공지능은 빅데이터 분석 기술에서 보다 인간적인 기술로 진화하고 있다. 인공지능은 사물인터넷의 센싱 기술로 말미암아 인간의 오감보다 더 정교한 감각 기관을 가질 것으로 예측된다. 그리고 인공지능은 클라우드 네트워크 기술로 언제 어디서나 인터넷에 접속하여 컴퓨팅 자원을 지원받을 수 있을 것이다. 이처럼 인공지능은 최신 기술들의 총아로 발전 중에 있다. 이와 동시에 인공지능에 대한 불안과 미래 시대에 대한 암울한 전망도 높아지고 있다. 대부분의 기술 디스토피아적 미래상은 현상을 객관적으로 조망하는 관조적 시야를 잃어버렸을 때 발생한다. 또한 이러힌 비관론은 기술 발전의 미래상을 인간 의지의 주관적 미래상으로 전환시킬 능력과 자신감의 부재를 반영하기도 하다. 이 글은 인공지능 기술과 서비스의 발달에 따른 대량해고와 실업, 기계에 의한 인류 종말 등 일반적 주제를 다루기보다는 가까운 지금 일어나고 있는 개인정보보호 침해의 이슈를 다루고자 한다. 더 나아가 이 논문은 개인정보보호를 보장하면서 인공지능 산업을 발전시킬 수 있는 도덕적/법제도적 모델에 대해서도 고찰하였다.

  • The aim of this study was to identify students' views on the orientation of science and to investigate the relationship between their views and decision-making on socio-scientific issues (SSI). In this study, 27 university students attending a science course were asked to discuss four controversial issues: the Toyota recall, the green car, the global warming and swine influenza (influenza A (H1N1)). The study was comprised of two stages. At the first stage, we examined students' views on the nature of science and on the orientation of science with the open-ended questionnaire based on VNOS and VOSTS. While they held relatively similar views on the nature of science, their views on the orientation of science were distinct as pragmatic, intrinsic, communal and ethical views. At the second stage, to examine the role of their views on the orientation of science in decision-making, we selected four students who had similar views on NOS but different views on the orientation of science. The four students were selected from each group of views on the orientation of science and their decision-making processes were analyzed following grounded theory. Across SSIs, they relied upon their views on the orientation of science as the strategies for decision, though considered different perception, and causal and contextual conditions. This study indicates that understanding students' views on the orientation of science would be helpful for achieving scientific literacy for informed decision.

  • Analyzing on-line consumer responses is directly related to the management performance of food companies. Therefore, this study collected and analyzed data from an on-line portal site created by consumers about food companies with issues and examined the relationships between the data and the management performance. Through this process, we identified consumers' awareness of these companies obtained from big data analysis and analyzed the relationship between the results and the sales and stock prices of the companies through a time-series graph and correlation analysis. The results of this study were as follows. First, the result of the text mining analysis suggests that consumers respond more sensitively to negative issues than to positive issues. Second, the emotional analysis showed that companies' ethics issues (Enterprise 3 and 4) have a higher level of emotional continuity than that of food safety issues. It can be interpreted that the problem of ethical management has great influence on consumers' purchasing behavior. Finally, In the case of all negative food issues, the number of word frequency and emotional scores showed opposite trends. As a result of the correlation analysis, there was a correlation between word frequency and stock price in the case of all negative food issues and also between emotional scores and stock price. Recently, studies using big data analytics have been conducted in various fields. Therefore, based on this research, it is expected that studies using big data analytics will be done in the agricultural field.

  • 한국의 제네시스G80, 티볼리2017등이 부분적 자율주행차 시연을 진행 중이며 상용화에도 박차를 가하고 있다. 세계에서는 테슬라 'X'가 완전자율주행차를 구현하면서 테스트 과정을 완료하였다. 자율주행차가 점차적으로 상용화가 되면서 운전 취약자에 대한 해결책이 제시되고 편의성도 증가하면서 교통사고 비율도 감소할 것으로 예측된다. 반면에 자율주행차 사고 시, 윤리적 책임 문제 등 준비되어야 할 관련 법률은 매우 부족한 실정이며 자율주행차의 보안문제와 개인사생활의 침해도 매우 우려되는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 현재 자율주행차에 대한 국내외 관련연구와 분석현황을 제시하고, 문제점에 대한 해결책과 활성화 모델을 제안한다.

  • Purpose: Aim of this study was to gather and evaluate perceptions of investigators, IRB members, and IRB administrators on the appropriateness of IRB review process and bioethical oversight system of national R&D (NR&D) projects. Method: Investigators, IRB members, and IRB administrators at 17 different institutions were surveyed using convenience sampling and survey questionnaires were partially group-specialized to consider any differences between the groups. Results: Participants included 29 investigators, 37 IRB members, and 17 administrators with response rate of 100% (83 of 83). According to the responses obtained, insufficient preparation time for constructing protocol and gaining IRB approval was one of the main problems in the IRB review process (investigator 79.3%, IRB administrator 88.2%). Also, discrepancy between NR&D and IRB's protocol formats was another major issue (IRB members 96.4%, IRB administrator 100%) and most investigators (89.7%) had to modify the original NR&D protocol to obtain IRB approval. Moreover, it was reported that 13.8% of investigators and 31.3% of IRB administrators did not submit midyear reports to IRB and for bioethical issues of NR&D projects, 17.2% of investigators did not include information on project status and safety issues in the annual reports. Conclusion: In conclusion, for successful and ethical completion of R&D projects, revision of both IRB review process and NR&D project protocol formats as well as implementation of appropriate bioethical oversights are necessary.

  • by providing objective information regarding medical radiation for elementary, middle, and high school students in Korea, who are expected to have a high ripple effect in education, and by analyzing behavioral changes in the selection of medical radiation, this study aimed to deduce the basis for educational intervention. The tools used in the study were a questionnaire, including questions about perception, knowledge, attitude, and behavior toward medical radiation; video and Power-point materials for the lesson; simulated radiation diagnosis selection form; and radiation treatment selection form to find out about behavior. A post-test demonstrated that the objective knowledge about medical radiation of all the students turned out to be significantly higher (p<0.000) after the lesson compared to before the lesson. However, there were no statistically significant behavioral changes. Rather, for high school students, the behavior of selecting medical radiography and treatment was significantly lower (p<0.000) after the lesson. For the more impressionable children in the lower grades, the lesson must not only provide an opportunity to understand and pay attention to diverse viewpoints, but also encourage them to make ethical decisions based on value. Since it can be predicted that attitude or behavioral changes through education or publicity can be expected from adults older than high school students, issues regarding dangers like radiation exposure must be treated as an issue of value judgment predicated on multifaceted considerations.

  • The rapid development and distribution of information communication industry facilitates the changes of hospital administration, introducing EMR(Electronic Medical Record) instead of paper-based medical record in the medical field. The developed countries such as U.S. have established EMR system after in the middle of 1970s because the primary advantages of EMR is to store and handle vast amounts of records efficiently and increase the quality of health care. Most of health organizations in Korea also apply medical record system to their administration. As the result, they have accomplished a scientific administration system through the use of medical record to handle a variety of patient's information including patient's confidentiality and privacy such as family history, social status, income level, and so on. However, access to and the misuse of EMR causes illegal infringement of patient's information and finally it becomes a very serious medical issue. Potential leakage and misuse of records may seriously infringe patient's privacy rights. In this respect, the related agencies in the public and private sector have been making efforts to prevent patient's records leakages. Especially, the revision bill of Medical Law in 2002 establishes the ways on the security and standards of electronic records. However, it does not provide the proper guidelines which is applied to the rapid changes of the medical environment. One of the most priorities in the hospital administration is the production and maintenance of an accurate medical records fulfilled by medical recorders. Therefore, it is very important for health care providers to hire ethical-based medical recorders. But, unfortunately most of hospitals overlook the importance of their roles. All parts including government, physician and patient must have more concerns on the problems related to EMR. Therefore, this study aims to propose the proper ways to resolve the problems coming from EMR.

  • Due to the competitive nature of journal publishing, editorial leadership has become an increasingly important issue on many editorial teams. This study aimed to compare the major and non-Western international journals in library and information science and reveal the differences between them. To conduct this study, journals indexed by Scopus and Web of Science were analyzed in terms of gender, professional position and rank, institutions, and the iSchool status of the editorial leaders' institutions. The most notable results were the following: a) As a whole, both types of journals lacked true internationalization. Editorial leaders of major journals tended to be from Western countries, whereas editorial leaders of non-Western journals tended to be from non-Western countries; b) Most non-Western journals tended to appoint editorial leaders from the same country as the publisher's country; and c) Almost all editorial leaders of non-Western journals were from various non-Western countries and tended to have lower h-index scores, and their institutions were not part of the iSchool. Future research should assess editorial leadership, compare the results of this study to other disciplines, and find effective ways to collect data on editorial leaders while minimizing ethical concerns in order to meet future research needs.
