This study aims to examine and develop a Triple Helix model for social innovation to eradicate pervasive poverty in developing countries. To do this, this study explores and analyzes the Rural Saemaul Undong (RSU), a rural community development movement for eradicating poverty that was driven by the South Korean government during the 1970s. First of all, this study explores the characteristics of the RSU and explains why the RSU was a social innovation. To support and explain why the RSU was a successful social innovation, this study analyzes the roles and activities of three distinct actor groups: the chief policymaker and his aides who presented the vision and purpose, or the "why" of the Saemaul Undong; central and local government officials who were the planners and managers who showed "how" to plan and drive it; and village Saemaul leaders as the drivers and coaches showing rural villagers "what" to do. Based on this analysis, this study develops an actor-based Triple Helix model for social innovation to eradicate poverty.

한국은 제1, 2차 경제개발 5개년계획으로 산업화와 경제 발전을 이룩하면서 심각해진 도 ${\cdot}$ 농격차의 해소를 위해 1970년대 초부터 농촌지역사회 개발을 위한 새마을 운동을 전개하였다. 새마을운동은 근면, 자조, 협동을 기본 정신으로 한 잘살기 운동으로 1970년 당시 대통령이 농촌개발에 대한 강한 욕구와 집념을 천명하면서 농촌 새마을운동에서 시작되었다. 자원이 부족하고 농촌의 사정은 더욱 열악하여 국민의 70%를 차지하는 농민의 상당수가 끼니를 걱정해야 했으며, 도 ${\cdot}$ 농간의 격차는 벌어져 도시로 인구가 몰려들고 사회는 불안정한 상태에서 농촌지역사회의 개발 없이는 나라의 발전도 안정도 기대하기 어려운 실정이었다. 농촌 개발을 위한 환경개선과 소득증대 사업에 주력했던 새마을 운동이 성공할 수 있었던 요인을 정부의 관심과 지원도 있었지만, 새마을 교육을 이수한 새마을 지도자들, 그 지도자들과 함께 근면, 자조, 협동을 실천했던 마을 사람들, 지역사회 주민들의 공동 노력이었다. 이 논문에서는 농촌에서 시작된 새마을운동이 도시의 직장, 공장 새마을운동으로 번져 범국민적 운동으로 나라 근대화의 원동력이 되었으며 성공할 수 있었던 요인들을 살펴보고 국제협력 사업의 일환으로 개발도상국의 농촌 지역사회 발전을 위해 새마을운동 경험을 공유할 수 있는 방안에 관하여 제언하고자 하였다.
