  • Purpose: Religious facilities often intend to contribute to surrounding neighborhood and local community. While motivated by religious aims, churches can play a role in social welfare for elders in local community. It is obvious that the role will be different from official social welfare services from government and this study aims to examine the possibility of churches in the role of elderly social welfare in terms of space and program. Methods: Researchers interviewed management of four existing welfare programs by churces in order to understand operation of social welfare program for elders by churches. The second step was case study of four churches in Suwon City area. The potential for social welfare space use for elders was examined. Results: Researchers found the role of churches in providing welfare relevant programs and services but its function is not well established yet. Financial support is needed and another support is need from welfare experts. Implications: While churches has not well established the role in elderly welfare in local communities, churches can further develop welfare services utilizing space, manpower, and activity programs.

  • Yuan Shi Kai, the first President of the Republic of China, established a ceremonial uniform system based on ancient styles in 1914 just before the national polity was changed to the Empire of China in 1915. This system is Jisiguanfuzhi (a system on costumes for memorial services), and figures included in the system are Jisiguanfutu (figures showing costumes for memorial services). This study is the first to examine Jisiguanfuzhi and Jisiguanfutu and to approach the background idea of the establishment of the system with a focus on the meaning of 'unity.' Jisiguanfuzhi regulates the ceremonial uniform system of all classes from the President along with the 1st-class to the 5th-class people. The uniform consists of a crown, robe, belt, the mid-section cloth, and boots. In addition, the uniforms of ritual musicians and dancers are included. The basic principles in establishing the system were the restoration of ancient systems, the adoption of convenience, the acceptance of current practices, and the implication of symbolism. Jisiguanfuzhi clarifies that the pattern of the ceremonial uniforms was modeled on Juebianfu, for religious services. The reason for choosing Juebianfu for religious services was to achieve 'unity' and Juebianfu was associated with 'unity' because it was common to all, from the emperor to the gentlemen class, in ancient times. Yuan Shi Kai tried to show flexibility to the gentlemen class who represented the intellectuals at that time by adopting Juebianfu for religious services, fearing that the gentlemen class might oppose the attempt to restore the imperial system. Therefore, although Jisiguanfuzhi adopted mostly Mianfu and royal sacrificial robes, it also emphasized 'unity' by professing that the uniforms were based on Juebianfu for religious services.

  • There is a large amount of empirical literature reporting that people who regularly attend religious services tend to have better health outcomes. However, it remains an unanswered question as to whether the observed correlation reflects any causality. Exploiting exogenous changes in church attendance driven by law changes in 21 states of the U.S., I find tentative but suggestive evidence that the observed strong correlation between religious participation and health is likely to be driven by endogenous selection.

  • 이 연구는 자살테러에 대한 개인의 태도와 참여의 의사 등에 영향을 미치는 종교적인 특성과의 관계를 이해하기 위한 목적이 있다. 특히, 자살테러에 대한 태도와 참여의사와 종교에는 상관관계가 있는 것으로 알려져 있으나, 이에 관한 정확한 메커니즘을 밝힌 경험적 연구가 드물다. 이에 따라 종교와 자살테러에 대한 의견의 관계를 설명하는 이론적 배경에는 논의가 지속되고 있다. 즉, 개인의 종교적 헌신이 영향을 미친다는 종교적 신념가설과 종교적 헌신자체 보다는 종교의식에의 참여로 인한 공동체의식에의 강화 등을 통한 자살테러의 지지를 주장하는 협력적 참여가설이 그것이다. 이에 따라, 이 연구는 중동의 3개국, 이집트, 파키스탄, 그리고 모로코의 시민들을 대상으로 수행한 사회의식설문데이터를 사용하여 경험적 데이터 분석을 통해서 선행연구들에 근거하여 종교적 신념가설에 근거하여 종교의 중요성과 신에게 기도하는 시간 등의 요인들이 자살테러에 대한 지지에 어떠한 영향을 미치는 지 여부를 검증하고, 협력적 참여가설에 근거하여 종교의식에의 참여여부가 자살테러에 대한 지지에 매개 또는 중재의 역할을 하는 지 여부를 분석하였다. 그리고 그외의 개인의 자살테러에 대한 태도에 영향을 미치는 요인들로 잘 알려져 있는 인구통계학적 요인들과 다양한 관련요인들이 연구 분석에 포함되었다. 연구 분석결과, 이 두가지 가설에 대해서 부분적인 지지의 연구결과를 발견하였다. 즉, 종교적 신념가설 변수들 중, 신의 중요성과 종교의 중요성을 제외하고, 종교적 기도시간의 빈도만이 중동시민들의 자살테러에 대한 지지를 감소시키는 요인이었다. 이어서 협력적 참여가설의 종교적 예배의식의 참여가 상관요인인 것으로 나타났으나, 가설에서 주장하는 방향과 일치하지 않았다. 즉, 예배의식의 참여의 빈도가 높아질수록 자살테러에 대해 부정적 태도를 견지한 것이다. 마지막으로 이 연구의 논의에서 연구결과에 대한 논의와 정책적, 학문적 함의 및 후속연구에 대한 제안 등이 논의되었다.

  • This study examines the characteristics of 45 sects of seven new aboriginal religious groups in Korea including Jeungsan sect, Tangun sect, Soowoon sect, Won Buddhism, Bongnam sect, Gahksedo sect, Shamanism sect through field study and various documents. The purpose of the study is to elucidate how their religious ideas are reflected in their ceremonial costumes and what characteritics and underlying meanings these costumes have, and I reached the following conclusions 1. The new religious groups in Korea modified or mixed the designs or names of existing outfits to convey their ideas or beliefs in their costumes. 2. The costumes of new religious groups turned out to have certain characteristics in common: they all reflected the times, Korean tradition, ancestor worship. 3. I looked at the symbolicity, names, and types of the outfit, and their color scheme to establish their structural characteristics, and it turned out that they an symbolized the creeds and ideas of each religion. The names of the costumes such as Way-Robe, Law-Robe, and Ceremony-Robe, for instance, had to do with Buddhism Taoism, and Confucianism. The most common type of costume consisted of traditional hanbok top, pant, robe, and some type of headpiece for men, and hanbok top and, skirt for women, and if women were to wear a robe, it usually meant the sect believed in sexual equality. There was also a tendency to simplify or minimize the dress code, which seems to indicate that the sect was trying to adapt itself to, the times. The most common type of the outer garment for men was a robe with narrow sleeves, straight lapel, and no slits, and a robe with wide sleeves, straight lapel, and slits for women. The color scheme of the costumes included blue, white, yellow, red, and black, reflecting the influence of the Yin-Yang and Five Elements idea and traditional preference for white of Koreans. 4. These religious costumes were worn at various ceremonies, ritual, and various anniversary services for the master and other dignitaries of the sect to render greater piety to those gatherings, to distinguish the sect from other religious groups, to clarify the meaning of the ceremony, and to heighten the devout feelings of the participants. Thus, the structure (the symbolicity, names, and types of the outfit, and their color scheme) and religious background of the costumes of the new aboriginal religious groups in Korea turned out to have inherited and mixed various element of traditional Korean outfit and those of existing religions to symbolize their religious ideas. Many religions in and fall, and each has its own dress codes, and I hope this study provides a framework and data for other researchers and leaders of new religious groups that will emerge in the future.

  • This study examined the characteristics of 45 sects of seven new aboriginal religious groups in Korea including Jeungsan sect, Tangun sect, Soowoon sect, Won Buddhism, Bongnam sect, Gahksedo sect, Shamanism sect that had given a considerable influence on the modem Korean society since the end of 19th century through the field study and the review of documents. The purpose of the study was to elucidate how their religious ideas were reflected in their ceremonial costumes and what characteristics these costumes had. The results were as follows: 1. The new religious groups in Korea modified or mixed the designs or the names of existing outfits to convey their ideas or beliefs through their costumes. 2. The costumes of new religious groups had common characteristics of the times, Korean tradition and ancestor worship. 3. All the ceremonial costumes symbolized the creeds and ideas of each religion in their names, designs, and colors. The names of the costumes such as Way-Robe, Law-Robe, and Ceremony-Robe, and of the headpieces such as Sky-Crown, Lotus-Crown, Ceremony-Crown, and Sevenfold-Crown, for instance, were related with Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. The most common design of costume was consisted of traditional hanbok and some type of headpiece and robe for men, and hanbok modified to Western-style for women. Most sects adopted hanbok as their ceremonial costume, but they tend to simplify its design. The color scheme of the costumes reflected the influence of the Yul-Yang and Five Elements idea but the colors varied depending on seasons and occasions to suit their creeds and philosophy. 4. These religious costumes were worn at various ceremonies, ritual, and various anniversary services for the master and other dignitaries of the sect to render greater piety to those gatherings, to distinguish the sect from other religious groups, to clarify the meaning of the ceremony, and to heighten the devout feelings of the participants. Thus, the structure (the symbol, names, and types of the outfit, and their color scheme) and religious background of the costumes of the new aboriginal religious groups in Korea turned out to have inherited and mixed various elements of traditional Korean outfits and those of existing religions to symbolize their religious ideas.

  • 가톨릭교회가 소장하고 있는 기록정보는 종교적으로도 중요한 기록물이지만 역사적 문화적 가치를 가지고 있는 중요한 기록정보이다. 그러나 대부분 보존에 초점이 맞추어져 기록물 활용은 활성화되어 있지 못하고 특히 인터넷 환경에서 접근이 용이하게 제공되고 있지 못하다. 이 연구는 이러한 현황을 반영하여 가톨릭 분야에서 운영되고 있는 온라인 서비스 현황을 조사하였고 구조와 디자인, 콘텐츠, 인터페이스 영역으로 서비스 수준을 분석하였다. 분석결과 가톨릭기록정보는 3가지 유형으로 서비스되고 있는 것으로 조사되었으며 온라인으로 활발하게 서비스되고 있지 못한 것으로 나타났다. 서비스 수준에서는 디지털 콘텐츠의 부족이 가장 큰 문제점으로 분석되어 이 연구에서는 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 단계별로 콘텐츠를 개발하여 가톨릭기록정보의 온라인 서비스를 활성화하는 방안을 제언하였다.
