본 연구는 러셀의 선교로서의 기독교교육론을 북한선교에 적용시켜, 향후 북한선교의 새로운 방향설정에 이정표 제시를 주목표로 하고 있다. 주지하는 바와 같이, 러셀은 기독교교육을 선교적 관점에서 새롭게 해석한 최초의 기독교교육학자이다. 그녀에 의하면, 기독교교육은 교회를 유지하고 새신자를 양육하여 성장시키기 위한 단순한 교회의 도구가 아니라, 보다 넓은 의미에서, 하나님의 선교에 속한 영역이다. 즉, 하나님과 이웃과의 화해를 통하여 참된 인간성을 회복시키시려는 하나님의 선교에 참여하도록, 남녀노소 할 것 없이 모든 사람에게 열려진 그리스도의 초청에 우리들이 참여하도록 제공된 방법이라는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 러셀의 기독교교육의 이해를 바탕으로, 서론과 제2장에서 현재까지의 북한선교사역의 상황과 분석, 북한이해를 위한 접근방법들과 기독교교육학 영역에서 선행된 북한선교와 통일관련 선행연구를 수행하였다. 제3장에서 러셀의 인간화선교교육 이론의 내용을 간략히 살펴보았고, 제4장에서는 러셀이론의 북한선교 영역에의 적용을 시도하였다. 북한선교 영역에서 선교대상인 북한주민(탈북민을 포함하여)의 참된 인간성 회복의 의미와 구체적 사역은 무엇인지, 현실적으로 지속가능한 인간화사역은 어떠해야 하는지, 북한주민에게 하나님과 또한 이웃들과 화해할 수 있도록 하는 현장은 어떠해야 하는지, 이러한 사역이 그리스도의 초청이라는 사실을 어떠한 방법으로 전달해야 하는지, 이 사역에 함께 참여하는 자들은 어떠한 준비가 필요로 한지, 나아가, 러셀의 인간화 선교교육으로서의 북한선교가 이전의 북한선교 방법들과 비교해 볼 때 어떤 면에서 훨씬 효과적일 수 있는 지를 살펴본 후, 마지막 제5장에서 전체글을 마무리 하였다.

지금까지의 통일에 대한 접근은 정치·경제·군사·외교를 통한 국가통일과 민족중심의 통일로 나누어 국가 정책적인 차원에서 이루어졌다. 그럼에도 불구하고 지금까지의 통일에 대한 진전은 보이지 못한다고 하겠다. 여기에 본 연구자는 지금까지의 통일에 대한 성찰을 통해 문화적 접근을 통한 통일을 병행할 필요가 있다고 보여진다. 특히 통일을 위한 다양한 의미와 가치를 담아내고 있는 한류는 한국의 대중문화로서 아시아를 넘어 전 세계로 그 영역이 확장되어 가고 있다. 이러한 상황에 북한도 예외일 수 없는 것이다. 그러므로 통일을 위한 한류의 가치와 의미를 통해 그 가능성을 살펴보는 것도 의미 있을 것이라 본다. 먼저 한류에 대한 남북한의 공유와 향유는 통일에 대한 새로운 동력으로 작용할 수 있을 것이다. 이러한 기저에는 한류가 가지고 있는 동력으로서 민족적 정서가 남북한 사람들에게 문화적 공감대를 형성하게 해준다. 다음으로 민족적 정서가 반영된 한류의 문화는 치유의 역할을 할 수 있을 것이다. 남북한의 한류 공감은 서로에 대한 민족적 자긍심을 높이고, 남북한의 분단된 상처를 치유하는 역할을 가능하게 할 수 있을 것이다. 이를 통한 공감은 통일에 대한 역량을 높인다고 하겠다. 마지막으로 한류는 남북한이 서로 공유하고 향유하면서 통일의 촉매제 역할을 할 수 있는 것이다. 한류의 경험을 통한 통일에 대한 역량을 높이는 계기가 되어 인류의 보편적인 행복을 지향하는 삶으로의 전환을 꿈꾸게 한다. 결국 통일은 사람을 위한 통일이어야 한다. 사람을 위한 통일은 누구나가 행복 할 수 있다는 인류 보편적인 정서를 내포하는 문화를 의미한다. 이러한 것을 가능성을 담아내고 있는 것이 한류인 것이다.

After the yield of North Korea conducted underground the first nuclear test in 2006, which was less than a kiloton, it launched a vehicle on this April 9 again, which is believed to be a Taepo-dong 2 missile, defying international warnings that the move would violate U.N. resolutions, from Musudan-ni, North Korea. Its development and proliferation of ballistic missile and nuclear bomb technology pose a threat to the northeast Asian region and to international peace and security. In the other launching the missile, a newspaper reported that "While the launch was dubbed a failure by the U.S., it was an improvement over the North Koreans' July 2006 test of the Taepodong-2, said Green of the Center for Strategic and International Studies. "It was definitely better than last time, but it's still not an operational system," Green said.

The purpose of this paper is to make research on the settlement mechanism of the commercial disputes between the South and the North of Korea. Also, this paper is to make research on the south-north Korea's cooperative tasks to promote the disputes settlement, including the operation and management of the South-North Arbitration Commission as well as the enactment of the South-North Arbitration Rules. To realize the spirit of the South-North Joint Declaration of June 15, 2000, the Authorities concerned of the South and the North of Korea have reached an agreement titled 'Agreement on Settlement Procedure of Commercial Disputes' on December of the same year. As the follow-up measures of the said Agreement, the South-North Authorities have signed an another agreement called 'Agreement on Organization and Administration of the South-North Arbitration Commission' on October, 2003, which is becoming vital importance for settlement of the commercial disputes between south and north Korea including the Gaeseong Industrial Complex. Gaeseong, a city surrounded by the North Korean military and a symbol of inter-Korean tensions, is now turning into a peace zone where thousands of North and South Koreans are working side by side. The Gaeseong Industrial Complex project, driven by the logic and economic necessity of cooperation, has been steadily moving forward since the North designated it as a special economic zone and has enacted related laws and regulations for its development. Under the situation, the matter of primary concern is how to organize and conduct the Arbitration Commission for the prompt and effective settlement of the south-north commercial disputes. First of all, the South-North Authorities should recognize that the availability of prompt, effective and economical means of dispute resolution such as arbitration and mediation to be made by the Arbitration Commission would promote the orderly growth and encouragement of the south-north trade and investment. In this connection, the Korean Commercial Arbitration Board(KCAB) should be designated as the arbitral institution of the south Korean side under the Agreement on Organization and Administration of the South-North Arbitration Commission. The KCAB is the only authorized arbitral organization in South Korea to settle all kinds of commercial disputes at home and abroad.

The present study was conducted to determine whether the food shortage situation in North Korea has affected its people differentially according to social class. We performed a literature search on North Korean books and documents on food and nutrition. We also conducted a mail survey on North Korean defectors to estimate the energy and nutrient intake and the practice of foraging for wild foods at the time of food crisis in North Korea. The subjects were 150 adults, 104 men and 46 women, aged 20 years and older, who resettled in the South Korea after the food crisis. The mean energy intakes for men and women were estimated to be 1,260 kcal and 980.6 kcal, respectively, which were far less than 2,900 kcal and 2,600 kcal, the intake levels recommended for North Korean men and women, respectively. Thirty seven percent of the subjects reported a lack of foods adequate enough for work and other daily activities, and fifty seven percent reported a routine use of wild foods such as roots, grass, stalks, and tree bark with an average of 4 items per day. Food consumption patterns on a typical day were different by social classes with the high class people consuming an affluent diet in the midst of a severe food shortage.

Objectives: This study explores the characteristics of family migration for North Korean defectors and classifies family migration by examining who initiated the migration and who followed. Method: We analyzed the family migration using detailed stories from fifty-five North Korean defectors who were interviewed between 2005 and 2011. Results: We found that 43 out of 55 cases were family migration and the remaining 12 cases were single person migration. We also found several characteristics typical of migration. First, family migration followed the process of step migration, which indicated a serial migration in numbers. Second, migration relied heavily on informal social networks. Finally, the process of earlier migration by North Koreans was incidental and unexpected; however, unexpectedness has diminished in recent migration. Looking at who initiated the migration, the most common type was 'mother-initiated' cases (14 cases) followed by 'child-initiated' cases (10 cases). The third most common type was 'mother-child accompanied' cases (7 cases). The migration process was various; however the most common type was when a married woman initiated the family migration process. This is most likely because married women have the responsibility to support families in the informal economy of North Korea. According to the range of family migrated, the most common type was 'nuclear-family only' cases (22 cases) followed by 'maternal extended family migration' cases (12 cases). Conclusions: The findings of this study provide information on the family dynamics of North Korean defectors.

We investigated a small-scale serological survey to screen tissue-parasitic helminthiases of North Koreans as one of research programs for re-unification of Korea. Soil-transmitted helminthiases were found highly prevalent among North Korean residents at the border with China. ELISA using 4 tissue-parasitic helminth antigens was applied to 137 residents living in Cheongjin-shi, Hamgyeongbuk-do, North Korea and 133 female refugees in South Korea in 2004-2005. Among a total of 270 samples, 31 (11.5%), 25 (9.3%), and 11 (4.1%) were positive for specific IgG antibodies to antigens of Clonorchis sinensis, Taenia solium metacestode, and sparganum, respectively. The overall positive rate was 21.5%; 38.2% in males and 15.8% in females. The present finding suggests that tissue parasites, such as C. sinensis, T. solium metacestode and sparganum are highly prevalent in some limited areas of North Korea. These foodborne tissue-parasitic helminthiases should be considered for future control measures of parasitic diseases in North Korea.

본 연구는 범죄 피해신고 과정에서 접촉했던 경찰관의 조치에 대한 만족이 경찰 신뢰에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 만 20세 이상의 대한민국에 거주하는 북한이탈주민을 연구대상으로 자기기입식 설문조사방법을 이용했다(N = 214). 다중회귀분석 분석에 의하면, 자신의 피해 신고에 대한 경찰관의 조치에 대하여 불만족을 느꼈던 탈북자들은 남한경찰 활동에 대해 낮은 신뢰를 보였다. 또한 주변 사람들에 대한 높은 신뢰를 보이는 탈북자들은 남한 경찰활동에 대해서도 높은 신뢰를 보였으며, 범죄피해를 경찰에 신고한 경험이 있는 탈북자들은 남한 경찰활동에 대해서도 높은 신뢰를 나타냈다. 주거지역의 범죄 발생이 증가한다고 인식한 탈북자, 여성탈북자, 남·북한 학교의 재학, 자동차 소유 등은 경찰 활동에 대해 낮은 신뢰를 보였다. 본 연구에서는 주민응대 교육프로그램과 법률 교육 개발 및 강화 등을 정책적 대안으로 제시하고 있다.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate prevalence and clinical characteristics of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in North Korean defectors (NKD). Methods : The study population consisted of 300 NKDs registered in the multi-regional adaptation center (Hana Center), within three years of settling in South Korea. We conducted in-person interviews and a survey with each subject, based on the North Korean version of the WHO-Composite International Diagnostic Interview (NK-CIDI) and various clinical scales. Results : Lifetime prevalence of PTSD in NKDs was 15.3%, approximately nine times higher than South Koreans (1.7%). Although experiencing broader type of traumas with higher rate than South Koreans, NKDs revealed lower odds of PTSD in most type of trauma (p<0.05). Conclusion : NKDs are at higher risk of experiencing different types of trauma than the general population in South Korea, and it is further validated that prevalence of PTSD is also higher. Careful evaluation for comorbid psychiatric symptoms and type of traumas prior to PTSD treatment for NKDs is necessary to facilitate more appropriate intervention for each subject, according to personal experience.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to provide basic data to develop a future health promotion program through the comparison of health promoting behavior and perceived health status between Koreans and Korean-Americans. Methods: The subjects of this study were 411 adults recruited from religious organizations located in the Yongnam area, Korea, and Chicago, U.S.A. The instruments used in the study were Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile II (HPLP) developed by Walker, Sechrist & Pender (1995), and the Health Self Rating Scale designed by North Illinois University. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficient, ANCOVA, ANOVA and Duncan test with the SPSS program. Results: 1) The mean HPLP score was 2.26 in Koreans and 2.43 in Korean-Americans, showing a significant difference between the two groups. 2) In subscales of HPLP, both groups showed the highest practices in 'interpersonal relationship' and the lowest practices in 'physical activity'. 3) The mean score of perceived health status was 2.26 in Koreans and 2.43 in Korean-Americans, showing a significant difference between the two groups. 4) Health promoting behavior was significantly different by family income in Koreans, but significantly different by age and family income in Korean-Americans. 5) Perceived health status was significantly different by family income and marital status, but significantly different by age, education, and family income. 6) The HPLP was not correlated with perceived health status in Koreans, but positively correlated with perceived health status in Korean-Americans. Conclusion: The study findings suggest a need to develop a health promotion program, in which physical activity and stress management for Koreans and Korean-Americans are emphasized, and cultural and environmental elements are considered, for better understanding of their health related issues.
