IMF 구제금융 사태 이후 신자유주의가 이 땅에 뿌리를 내려가면서 한국의 도서시장은 소위 자기계발서로 화끈 달아올랐다. 신자유주의 사회체제에서 자기계발서의 환상은 인적자원개발을 통한 개인의 경쟁력 향상과 맞물려 필연적으로 자본이 추구하는 상품화의 수단으로 전락하고 말았다. 경쟁사회에서의 낙오를 순전히 개인의 책임으로, 그리고 남들에 비해서 무엇인가 근본적 요소가 결여된 존재로 인정하게 만드는 자기계발서의 특징들은 이처럼 선택을 강요당하는 개인들에게 끊임없이 불안감과 무력감을 조성하는 함정에 빠뜨리고 만다. 자기계발과 힐링은 보완적 관계이다. 인간이 자기계발에 매진하다 보면 힐링을 필요로 한다. 힐링 인문학이 필요한 것이다. 그러므로 인문학은 자기 자신을 지각하고 발전시키는 '성찰적 삶의 기술'을 유도해야 한다. 개인의 삶의 행복이나 자기 자신의 의미체험이 매우 중요하며, 자기 자신의 감정에 대한 깨어있는 의식적 관계맺음이 '자기강화'로 이끌 수 있기 때문이다

기술혁명은 긍정적인 변화와 동시에 수반될 부정적인 우려가 항상 공존해왔다. 소위 '4차 산업혁명'으로 대표되는 기술혁명은 더욱 파괴적인 방식으로 생산성 혁명을 가져올 것이며, 고용 및 노동시장에 미칠 효과가 매우 클 것으로 예견되고 있다. 이러한 배경에서 현재 복지국가의 '쓸모'에 대한 논쟁이 진행되고 있으며, 기본소득이 대안으로 부각되고 있다. 하지만, 현재 기술혁명의 속성과 기술변화가 고용과 복지국가에 미칠 영향에 대해 포괄적이고 다면적인 시각에서 분석한 연구는 부족하다. 본 논문에서는 기술혁명의 내용을 검토하고 기존 문헌과 사례연구를 바탕으로 기술혁명이 고용과 복지국가에 미칠 영향에 대해 심층적으로 논의하고자 한다. 우선 문헌검토를 통해서 기술혁명이 고용에 미치는 영향에 대한 논의를 정리하고자 한다. 이후에는 현실사례인 우버와 아마존 메커니컬 터크 등 미국 사례와 독일의 'Work 4.0' 사례의 경험을 통해서 논의를 보강하게 될 것이다. 마지막으로 논의를 종합하면서 미래 복지국가 개혁의 주요 논점을 제시해보고자 한다. 이 논문에서는 기술혁명으로 인한 변화와 고용 및 사회보장 변화에 미칠 압력은 심대할 것으로 판단하지만, 그 영향이 어떠할지에 대해서는 불확실성이 높음을 지적한다. 그렇기 때문에 기술혁명에 따른 복지국가 개혁보다는 현재 복지국가를 형성하는가에 따라서 기술혁명의 영향력이 크게 달라질 수 있음을 주장한다. 기술변화에 적응력이 높고 창의적인 인적자본 형성을 지원할 수 있는 사회투자제도와 이를 뒷받침하면서 개인에게 안정과 행복을 보편적으로 제공할 수 있는 사회보호제도의 중요성을 강조하며 정책 제언을 하고자 한다.

The purpose of this study is to identify the current status of the working poor and the factors that are influential to the working poor among echo boomers. This study is a secondary analysis using the data from the 7th analysis of the 2012 Korea Welfare Panel Survey, conducted by Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs. This analysis considered Korean echo boomers born between 1979 and 1985. In our final analysis, we used 1,226 echo boomers who had the ability to work. For the analysis, the SAS/PC statistical program ver. 9.3 was utilized. The research findings are as follows; Firstly, of the working poor among the echo boomers, only 22% were in the state of poverty. Secondly, more echo boomers living in a metropolitan city, city, gun/urban-rural area and district than those in the Seoul were categorized as among the working poor; the same was true for those who lived in a free house than in a leased room or a room that was rented by the month. Thirdly, more echo boomers whose education level was high school graduate or less rather than college graduate or less or university graduate or more were categorized as among the working poor; this was also true for echo boomers whose employment type was temporary employment, self-employment, or unemployment rather than a full-time job.

Many authors have examined the impact of public spending on economic growth. This study uses ordinary least-squares technique to test the effect of state budget expenditure with two major components: development investment expenditure and recurrent expenditure on Vietnamese economy for the period 2000-2017. The empirical results show that the state budget expenditure of Vietnam has positive effect on the economy, however each main component has different impacts. Recurrent expenditure has significant positive impact on Vietnamese economy while there has no evidence to affirm the relationship between the development investment expenditure and the economic growth. Vietnamese government should restructure the state budget to enhance the positive effect on the economy. In the short run, Vietnam should not increase development investment expenditure due to low efficency in public investment. In the long run, it is necessary to economize recurrent expenditure to reserve a reasonable proportion of state budget for development investment expenditure to build infrastructure for developing the economy. The state budget expenditure should be restructured towards prioritizing recurrent expenditure on human and social relief, reducing public administration expenditure, allocating investment capital from the state budget for key and pervasive projects, avoiding spreading out investments as well as crowding out private investments.

This study aims to understand potential gender differences in the association between job characteristics and job satisfaction among older workers. The data are from 506 males and 202 females older than 55 from the first wave of the Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing(KLoSA). Analyses focused on examining gender differences in the influences of subjective evaluation of work characteristics measured with education and skill fits of the work, work demands, customary early retirement, as well as more objective job conditions assessed with insurances by the employer, work hours, and salary on job satisfaction. Regression analyses revealed that female workers showed higher job satisfaction while job characteristics worked differently between genders to affect job satisfaction. For males, fitting the job with education and job demands were determining factors of job satisfaction, while the job with skills and work hours appeared to be significant factors for females. Results suggest that opportunities to utilize older workers' human capital and flexible working hours, especially for females workers would be helpful in promoting older adults' employment and satisfaction about their work.

This study investigates the impact levels of determinants on the Balanced Scorecard application in evaluating the performance of tourism firms in Hanoi. The tourism industry not only promotes economic development, but also contributes to expanding cultural exchanges and improving people's knowledge. However, Vietnam's tourism industry is under fierce competitive pressure, with the participation of foreign enterprises, with large amount of capital, high professionalism and wide network. The rivalry is happening aggressively on many aspects such as products and human resources. Therefore, tourism firms are in urgent needs of having effective methods to evaluate its performance in order to improve business and development efficiency. This study uses data of tourism firms in Hanoi during 2018-2019. The data used for analysis and regression consists of 135 observations. We use Cronbach's Alpha, EFA and regression model to learn the effect of different variables on the Balanced scorecard application in evaluating the performance. The results show that two determinants, including internal factors of tourism firms (IF) and external factors of tourism firms (EF) had positive relationships with the Balanced scorecard application in evaluating the performance. Based on the findings, recommendations are given for improving the Balanced scorecard application in evaluating the performance of tourism firms in Hanoi.

The necessary consequence by the rapid economic growth in large-scale urban excavation is increasing. If the site is the congested in downtown, the scale of excavation will get the large-scale and the extreme depth. We have achieved a high level technology internationally by the design and construction of underground excavation since 1980's. But the accidents during excavation are frequently occurring. So, this demage instigates the human life loss as well as economical loss. The recent accident is come about the damage for public facilities such as the railroad, subway and etc. in addition to the loss of life and property. For these reasons, the recent accident is being caused the damage of copious social overhead capital. The reasons of collapse during excavation can be classified roughly into the administrative part(sanction, permission), the investigation and design, the construction and management and etc. In this study the close check for the cases of the recent collapse is performed and the improvement course for the prevention of collapse is found.

본 연구는 국가장학금제도가 반값등록금 지원이라는 소기의 정책목적을 달성하였는지를 분석해 보고, 이에 대한 개선방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 소득분위별로 등록금 경감률을 계산하여 실질적으로 반값등록금이 달성되었는지를 분석하는 방법론을 활용하였다. 연구결과 국가장학금 제도는 소득 2구간 이하의 학생들에게는 무상교육을, 6분위 이하의 학생들에게는 반값등록금을 지원하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이처럼 과반수의 학생들이 반값등록금 정책의 실질적인 혜택을 받고 있으나, 그 체감도가 떨어지는 것은 반값이라는 홍보성 구호가 국민들에게 각인되었기 때문이다. 따라서 본고에서는 이러한 인식차이를 좁힐 수 있는 홍보방식의 개선과 등록금을 단순지출이 아닌 투자의 개념으로 전환할 필요가 있다는 정책개선방안을 제시하였다. 또한 현행 무상지원 및 대출형 지원방식에서 벗어나 투자형 지원방식의 도입을 통해 학생과 정부의 부담을 동시에 최소화할 수 있는 방안도 검토하였다.

Globalization has diversified ethnic composition thus increased the risk of conflicts and socio-political instability in global cities. However, still the status of community facility in a global city is unclear despite its critical role to build sustainable community in global era. In Seoul, as a reaction of globalization, 19 community facilities known as the 'Seoul Global Center' have been established since 2007 by Seoul Metropolitan Government. These facilities have started to provide basic foreigner services but been transformed to foreigner service hub with multiple functions in terms of a living, a business, a labour, etc. This study explores the role of the community facility for foreigners by using the Seoul Global Center as a case study, conducting a site observation, an interview(13 staff) and a questionnaire(148 visitors). The findings are the community facility functions as a 'global platform' in forms of a policy tool for implementing the urban globalization strategy, a mediator connecting foreign migrants with local communities, an applicant for successful settlement of foreign residents, an incubator that grows human and social capital, and a base for collecting and aggregating information on foreign migrants and forming new local identities.

In order to achieve sustainable development that balances economic growth, environmental protection, and social well-being and ensures a sustainable future, strict environmental regulations and sustainable nuclear energy production may play a vital role. Empirical works are insufficient when measuring the effects of strict environmental policies and nuclear energy production on sustainable development. This research aims to close this gap by examining how environmental policy stringency and nuclear energy production contribute to sustainable development in the top 17 nuclear energy-generating countries between 1995 and 2021. The research uses the linear and nonlinear CS-ARDL and PMG-ARDL models to achieve this goal. The linear model suggests that environmental policy stringency and nuclear energy production contribute to long-term sustainable development. In the nonlinear model, a positive change in environmental policy stringency and nuclear energy production causes long-run sustainable development to grow, while a negative change in environmental policy stringency and nuclear energy production hinders long-run sustainable development. Furthermore, environmental technologies, human capital, financial development, trade liberalization, and research and development expenditures are crucial for fostering long-run sustainable development. In contrast, the natural resource rents hurt sustainable development. These findings suggest that policymakers should consider combining strict environmental regulations and nuclear energy in devising policies for sustainable development.
