From 1959 to 1984, over 93,000 Koreans moved to North Korea from Japan as part of a repatriation project conducted during this time. Among them were people who had escaped from North Korea and immigrated to Japan and South Korea as well as the descendants of such people. This research examines the immigration trajectories of North Korean defectors related to the repatriation project and its effects on international relations in East Asia in a migration systems context. Specifically, it focuses on 26 North Korean defectors who have connections with Japan and settled in Japan and South Korea. It argues that the migration pathways of North Korean defectors linked with the repatriation project have been constructed with the cooperation of and amidst conflict between East Asian countries. To respond to the situation, North Korean defectors used their connections with Japan in amicable relations between Japan and China. However, after the relations went sour, defectors turned to informal transitional networks. If these strategies were unavailable, the defectors faced difficulties, unless they received social or capital support from the destination countries. After entering the destination country, those who settled in Japan have experienced different situations due to the inconsistency in administrative proceedings, while those in South Korea have been treated equally as other defectors. In this sense, some defectors have faced precarious situations in their immigration.

This paper presents the policies Korea adopted to educate and train scientists/researchers and technicians/skilled workers. The Korean policies for the increase of human resources in science and technology that stimulated an upgrading of skills in industry and adapted to technical advancements are identified. An important factor is that the supply and demand mechanism created a virtuous circle so that the science and technology education and training policies were responsive to economic demands. In addition, policies to foster a human resource capacity have enhanced the contribution of human resources in science and technology for innovation and economic growth.

Objective : This study examined the prevalence of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among North Korean defectors during preparation for early settlement. In addition, the correlation between PTSD and other mental disorders with suicidal ideation was assessed. Methods : A total of 639 North Korean defectors aged 19-65 years were included from resettlement and training centers. PTSD was assessed using the PTSD Diagnostic Scale (PDS). The prevalence of other mental disorders and suicidal ideation were assessed using the Korean version of the Psychiatric Diagnostic Screening Questionnaire (K-PDSQ). Results : A total of 6.8% of North Korean defectors had a PDS score >23, which was suggestive of a diagnosis of PTSD. Prior repatriation to North Korea was significantly associated with PTSD. The defectors with PTSD had a higher prevalence of other mental disorders (major depressive disorder prevalence: adjusted odds ratio [AOR], 14.5; 95% confidence interval [CI], 6.7-31.2, panic disorder prevalence: AOR, 9.5; 95% CI, 4.6-20.0, generalized anxiety disorder prevalence: AOR, 5.6; 95% CI, 2.4-13.2). No significant association was found between suicidal ideation and PTSD. Conclusion : North Korean defectors had a relatively high prevalence of PTSD and suicidal ideation during preparation for early settlement. Cohort studies are needed to assess the lasting effects of PTSD on North Korean defectors' settlement in Korea for a longer period.

그동안 대부분의 국가에서 합법적인 취업활동을 위한 입법정책을 추진해왔지만 불법체류를 완화하기 위한 노력에도 불구하고 거의 성공적인 사례는 없을 정도로 어느 국가든 불법체류근로자들에 대한 사회문제가 발생하고 있다. 중국의 경우에도 예외는 아니다. 현재 중국 국내 외국인 불법취업 문제도 현재와 미래의 사회문제화 될 전망이다. 하지만 이를 법적으로 대응하는 중국 출입국관리법과 불법취업자에 대한 입법정책이 매우 소홀한 편이다. 불법취업 외국인 권리에 관한 법률규범 등 조정하는 수단이 부족하고 구제방법도 충분하지 않다. 국제적인 규범기준에 걸 맞는 중국 내 불법취업 외국인 권리보호에 관한 법적권리를 확보하는 것이 필요하다. 이를 위해 관련법 규범을 제정하고 이를 토대로 사후 행정 관리를 강화해야 한다. 주요 국가들의 추세와 경향은 불법체류자의 고용을 고용주를 중심으로 엄격하게 규제하고 있듯이 중국에서도 외국인근로자 대상의 단속보다는 고용주에 대한 규제를 강화할 필요가 있다. 이를 위해 불법외국인을 고용하는 고용주에게 과태료와 벌금, 징역형뿐만 아니라 각종 부담, 본국송환비용 지불 등 상당한 불이익을 받게 하여야 한다. 불법체류자의 자발적 귀환(Freiwillige $R\ddot{u}ckehr$)촉진프로그램 등을 운영하고 일정기일에 자진 귀국하는 불법체류자에게 범칙금을 면제하는 등의 조치를 취할 필요가 있다. 끝으로 중국에서도 불법체류 외국인정책의 방향이 불확실한 상태로 유지되어 고용주와 외국인근로자의 혼란 내지는 잘못된 선택을 방관하기 보다는 관련부처에서 적극적인 정책 방향성을 갖고 추진해나가야 할 것이다.

The liberated korea has the estimated population 16 million in 1945, and added 2.5 million just after an year. The korean repatriates returned by way of 2 main routes. The returnees, Wol-Nam-Min(former residents in north korea), and repatriates from Manchuria came into south korea over the 38th division line. The other repatriates from japanese islands and pacific areas came into Busan port and the vicinity. The repatriates who returned from the China and the Japanese islands made up about 80% of the total added population. However, the influx of overseas repatriates who explosively increased between 1945 and 1946, declined abruptly in April of 1946, and at last illegal re-emigration group to Manchuria and Japan Appeared, who had repatriated from those areas. This study deals with the "re-migration phenomenon of 1946" in korea, mainly focuses on 1) the motivation for those who decided to remigrate, their prospects of resettlement in Manchuria and post war japan after re-migration, 2) the structural problems of the Korean society in 1946-1947, and 3) the social recognition for the people who letf for Manchuria and Japan. This study proved the cause and background of re-migration phenomenon. The Manchuria case, the local authorities wanted farmers and peasants who could cultivate the abandoned land which had been originally pioneered and reclaimed by korean poor peasants, who repatriated to korean peninsula. On the other hand, the korean repatriates had a hard time in tenanting farmland, and so much difficulty in getting farming tools including fertilizer. That's why they left korea for Manchuria again. The Japanese case, the korean repatriates had a tough life owing to the restriction of properties left in japan, while the inflation and food shortage in korea got worse and worst. Accordingly, many koreans tried illegal entrance into post war japan. This study is a part of clarifying the universality and specificity of post war repatriation and migration issues developed in the south Korea. Through this study, we can find how difficult it is for newly liberated areas to accommodate repatriates and make them ordinary nationals in harmonic way with successful social integration. and we can observe the social aspect and administrative ability of newly liberated south korea in detail, Because the present korea has faced with so many problems connected with immigration workers and re-setting with korean communities abroad, we should introspect these historical experience of our own.

This research focuses on the life and works of architect Yi Hunwoo, who was active in early 20th century. Yi has been previously mentioned in a few research documents, but not as a main subject of interest. Thanks to digitalized historic databases, the authors of this research were able to access more information about Yi. It was discovered that he was born in Korea in the late 19th century and then attended the Nagoya Higher Technical School in Japan. After repatriation, he participated in a few public projects in Korea as an in-house architect at the Governor-General's office, then started his own practice and produced his individual projects. He also contributed articles on innovations in residential design to newspapers. Chronologically, his activities as an architect preceeded those of Park Gilyong, who has been conventionally regarded as the first Korean modern architect so far. This research would like to establish Yi Hunwoo as a historic figure whose professional career spanned the earlier stage of the Korean modern architecture, based on the records of his life and professional activities. The authors do not wish to present the architectural analysis nor evaluation of his works, which will be subject to future researches.

The purpose of this study is to understand North Korean female defectors' experiences in China. 13 female defectors were interviewed. Before they extricated from North Korea, they expected to make money to survive with their family in North Korea. But it couldn't be done because they didn't have legal status in China. They were at the risk of exposing to traffickers in females and of repatriation to North Korea. Surviving in China, they realized they were “Chosun(North Korean) females”; it meant they were in extremely poor and were sold by traffickers. It made them put to shame and be hurt their pride as a Chosun national identity. On the other hand, they realized they had narrow experiences and a limited outlook on international issues. They made themselves accustomed to freedom from the Chinese Revolution ; some of them experienced achievement. In general, they were satisfied with physical needs, but lacks of safety and worth in life. Even though, they couldn't return to North Korea because they were afraid of being punished by their government, and of striking their family a fatal blow in their successful lives of the society.

본 논문은 한국 기업의 해외 자회사 관리자의 선발 및 교육, 훈련에 대한 실증 연구다. 선발등과 국제인사관리 실태에 영향을 끼치는 요인들을 비교문화적(cross-cultural), 경영 관리적(managerial), 개인적(personal), 배우자 및 가족(spous) 등의 관점에서 살펴본 결과 전반적으로 한국기업들은 선진다국적 기업과 유사한 점이 많은 것으로 나타났다. 또 이를 선발자와 피선발자간의 분석에서는 해외파견 경험자가 배우자와 문화적 요인의 더욱 중요하게 강조하며, 고급관리자는 의사결정, 기업이윤 관리능력에, 중하급 관리자는 개인적요인에 상대적 비중을 보이며, 선진국으로 파견보다 개도국으로 파견시 비교문화적, 개인적 요인을 중요시하는 것으로 나타났다. 끝으로 설문과 면담을 통하여 한국 기업들의 해외 파견인 교육 및 배우자, 가족교육 프로그램 그리고 파견중과 귀국 후의 훈련에 관해 조사한 결과 선진 다국적 기업에 비교하면 초보적 단계인 것으로 나타났다.
