The purpose of this paper is to measure the relative efficiency of the police agencies in Korea with data collected from 2018 to 2020, using data envelopment analysis (DEA), as put forward by Charnes et al., which is used to construct a scalar measure of efficiency for all police agencies. The results of this study can be used to assist police agencies in delivering better and more efficient services to the community. The analytical results based on DEA identify potentially weak and strong police agencies on policing performance, their efficient benchmarking, and the levels of clear-ups that would make inefficient police agencies efficient. We could suggest that higher levels of the police force are associated with higher performance efficiency against crimes. But, it is a little hard to say that higher levels of the police force can keep the local police agencies efficient without explaining the contribution of other input variables to criminal arrest and prevention. On the other hand, our analysis presents that differences in operating environments and socioeconomic factors do not have a significant influence on the efficiency of local police agencies. But, it is necessary to note that we need to examine the effect of environments and socioeconomic factors on crime to create the better-policing performance.

최근 국민의 생명과 사회 안전에 대한 관심이 부각됨에 따라 국가 기관들의 정보활동에 대한 논의가 확대되고 있다. 특히 경찰 조직은 공공안녕에 대한 위험의 예방과 대응 관련 정보의 수집·작성 및 배포를 주요 활동 범위에 포함하고 있지만 수사첩보의 처리와 활용에 대한 정보경찰과 수사경찰 구성원 간의 인식 차이는 경찰 수사력 강화에 장애요인으로 작용하고 있다. 본 연구는 경찰조직의 범죄정보 수집 활동을 제고할 수 있는 방안을 모색하기 위하여 비공식적 사회연결망 분석을 통해 경찰 구성원들의 유기적 연계관계를 파악하고, 비공식적 상호작용에서 나타나는 정보활동의 맥락과 그 관계적 속성을 도출하였다. 분석 결과, 정보경찰과 수사경찰 구성원 간의 역할 수행이 상이한 구조적 특성을 가지고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 둘째, 발신 및 수신 중심성이 높은 특정 구성원들이 범죄정보 수집 활동에서 중심적 역할을 담당하고 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 셋째, 형사과와 정보과 간의 협조체제 구축을 위해서는 상대조직의 정보공유자를 발굴하여 정보협조의 공백을 최소화하고 범죄정보의 교류가 상호 의존적 관계를 형성하도록 하는 것이 필요하다고 판단되었다. 이러한 분석 결과를 기반으로 본 연구는 향후 경찰조직의 범죄정보 수집 활동을 개선하기 위한 효율적 협조체제 관계망을 구축하는데 기여할 수 있을 것으로 본다.

In the 1990s, with enacting of the laws on the family violence in Korea, agencies such as helpline 1366, counseling center and shelter for the female victims have been rapidly increasing in number. Also police and medical center have been viewed as having major responsibility for delivering services and social workers in community welfare center and public social worker have been expected play a role in community-based delivery systems for the female victims. The purpose of this study is to measure the level of the inter agency coordination and to find out the factors affecting the inter-agency coordination in family violence and to make policy implications for a better delivery system. The data were obtained from a social survey of family violence agencies, counselling center/shelter/helpline 1366, police, medical center, social workers of community center and of public sector in Seoul and Kyeongi area. The major results are as follows: 1) the level of inter-agency coordination is low, specially the referal cases of police and medical center is very poor. 2) The type of inter-agency coordination is referals and information sharing among agencies. 3) the factors affecting inter-agency coordination is agency type, wills and efforts of agency, information sharing, experience of family violence education. The current findings suggest that the delivery system to promote inter-agency coordination efforts and for police and medical center, social worker in private and public agency to respond promptly and properly would be built up.

우리나라에서 해상에서 발생하는 살인, 강도, 마약밀매, 불법조업 등 해양범죄에 관한 일반적 수사관할권은 해양경찰에게 있다. 해양범죄는 육지에서 발생하는 일반범죄에 비해 희소성, 피해의 대형화, 증거물의 오염가능성을 띄고 있기 때문에 이러한 범죄를 다루는 수사관들이 평소 담당사건에 대한 고도의 전문성을 보유하고 있어야 한다. 그런데 현재 해양경찰은 범죄수사전문가가 부족하고, 경찰수사연수원 등 일반경찰의 교육기관에 수사교육을 위탁하는 등 자체적인 수사교육 역량이 부족한 실정이다. 이에 해양범죄에 관한 정보와 자료를 축적하고 수사전문가를 양성한 후, 해양범죄에 관한 전문교육기관을 설치하여 해양범죄 특유의 교육과정을 통해 해양범죄 수사역량을 강화할 것을 제안한다.

This study aims to explore improvement measures for the linkage system between the police and social welfare agencies in responding to domestic violence and child abuse issues in South Korea by comparing and analyzing the current systems in South Korea, the United States, and the United Kingdom. Despite the legal and institutional foundations for victim protection and perpetrator correction in each country, the effectiveness of actual cooperation faces several limitations. In South Korea, the level of cooperation is insufficient due to the lack of information sharing, role conflicts, and ambiguity of cooperation procedures. The United States and the United Kingdom operate more systematic cooperation programs, showing notable achievements in mental health crisis intervention and domestic violence response. To improve the linkage system in South Korea, this study proposes the following measures: (1) developing a clear cooperation protocol, (2) conducting regular education and training programs, (3) establishing an integrated information system, and (4) strengthening the victim-centered approach. Implementing these measures will contribute to more effective responses to domestic violence and child abuse issues, ultimately leading to a healthier and safer society by reducing social costs through victim protection and perpetrator correction.

In the rapidly changing current society, the Korean National Police(KNP) is facing a lot of demands from the citizens like the protection of subject/victim rights, independence of investigation authority, disclosure of actual truth, and prevention & eradication of crimes. It is widely recognized among the Korean people and the police that the KNP is always standing for the rights of the people and it is high time that the KNP should be restored as the pioneer for the protection of human right. In this situation, the tremendous emphasis is given on the importance of investment in investigative training through the long-term master-plan in order to renovate its constitution, to level up its quality, and to cope with the highly sophisticated crime patterns. Korean police have already shown its outstanding investigative skills of identification of the deceased throughout large cases like Daegu subway arson and tsunami in Southeast Asia. In addition, the skills of cyber crime investigation are highly recognized by foreign law enforcement agencies. However, the investigative skills and abilities are being degraded and the morale of the investigative personnel are falling due to the insufficiently of the finite training budget. Lack of financial support results in the lack of training program and poor training environment, which subsequently leads to the inefficiency of training. Additionally, no long-term budget for fostering specialized investigative agents is allotted. Considering the fact that more than 95% of crimes in Korea are being primarily investigated by the Korean police, we have to understand the importance of the police. By the tremendous investment in investigative training which can lead to the high-quality investigations, the Korean police can ultimately contribute to the protection of safety and life of its people.

Due to criminal aspects spreading nation wide, their intelligence level increasing and becoming digitalized, the citizens' interest in and desire for crime security have increased. Until now, the preceding researches have been focused on finding the specific variables that have direct effects on the demand for police manpower through regression analysis and attempted to predict number of needs. However, there have never been any researches producing the accurate number of demands for crimes and human resources needed for each work load. Therefore, this research have analyzed each police station functions by interviewing the persons in charge and selected the main duty for each functions. From this, by using the method of system dynamics, this research was able to predict the standard number of manpower needed for each police station functions. Also, by making a model for each 235 police stations, the best efficient employment plan for police stations and district agencies have been further discussed based on the computer simulation results.

There are two kinds of police authorities in Korea. One is the Special Judicial Police, under the authority of the Ministry of Construction and Transportation, charged with maintenance of public order on trains, in stations and other places of business operated by the Korea Railway Corporation. The other is the Local Subway Police, belonging to the Local Police Agencies, whose jurisdiction covers trains, station and other areas managed and operated by local governments. The existence of two separate entities for common objective of railway security has given rise to problems including inefficiency in performance and lack of technical knowledge and synergic effects. This study looks at the need for resolving those problems by restructuring and expanding the Special Judicial Police to bring railway security under a single authority and an integrated railway security systems operation.

The cyber-crime is one of the results occurring from the increased dependency toward information-telecommunication devices. Currently, the Korean National Police Agency and many other related law enforcement agencies have made efforts to respond against the cyber-crimes. However, the number of cyber-crime is increasing steadily. The worse problem is that the arresting rate for the cyber-crime has been decreased than before. The reasons of decreasing arresting rate come from many different kinds of cyber-crime methods with the developed computer and network technology, Also, the easy concealment of the cyber-crime by the violater and the difficulty of specification against the data objected to search and seizure make the crackdown difficult. The other difficulties come from the lack of professionally trained investigators, the lack of high-technological investigation devices, and the failure of the technology development for the search and seizure of evidences because of the budget deficit. That is to say, these phenomenon show the comprehensive problem of the cyber-police system. Accordingly, to respond against newly changed cyber-crime activities and to investigate effectively, the cyber-police has to take consideration into the professional reorganization of the cyber-police, the development of the investigation technology, and the adjustment of current cyber-crime laws. Most importantly, the cyber-police needs the high-technological investigation devices, the development of the investigation methods, and the training for the professional human resources with the enough budget support.J
