This paper examines the level of community solidarity in an administrative district in Seoul, Korea. This paper focuses on the following questions: what is the level of community solidarity in the district? and what are the major predictors of community solidarity?. Using the data from the 2000 community survey about residents' needs conducted by the welfare administration office of the district, this paper attempts to answer the above research questions. In analyzing the effect of community solidarity, this paper focuses on the following four predictor categories: individual characteristics; community related characteristics such as degree of marginalization; community participation, and community problems. Results are as follows: (1) the average of community solidarity is 3.1, using 5 points scale; and (2) the variables such as marginalization and community problem have a negative effect on the level of community solidarity; and (3) community participation has a positive effect on the level of community solidarity. Through the empirical analysis. this paper provides valuable knowledge about the level of community solidarity and effects of community participation, marginalization, and community problem on community solidarity.

This paper is to survey the cooperation between the school and the community with respect to the degree of share of their facilities. The hypothesis of this paper is that the share of facilities between the school and the community is helpful for the two. That is, the community, using the school facilities, can educate to upgrade its people to higher social level. The school, using the community facilities, can compensate insufficient school facilities and facilitate student learnings. This paper employed both a literature survey and a case study approach explained by the case of Seong Dong Gu and its schools. This paper argued that the share of the facilities between the school and the community is needed to facilitate student learnings and to upgrade community people to higher level. Thus, government should encourage the cooperation between the two. This paper found that the school can use other schools' facilities, camping facilities, various types of private institute, community libraries, social welfare centers, athlentic facilities, and park facilities in the community. Most of the facilities are rested during school hours and are vacant more or less after school hours, so that there are still room for share the facilities with the students. This paper found that the community can easily use school facilities for life-long education programs, house-wife classes, athlentic programs for daily life, recreation classes for community people because the school is located in the center of the community. These programs using school facilities can encourage to upgrade community persons' social levels. However, this paper found that the degree of community use is insufficient to fulfil the school facilities. Only a few percent of the school class rooms and other facilities are used by the community. Therefore this paper asserted that community education programs using school facilities should be expanded. This paper recommended, based on the findings, that governments should encourage the cooperation between the school and the community to facilitate student's learnings and to upgrade community people to higher level. Also it recommended that the school should share more community facilities and that the community should share more school facilities.

Objectives: This paper aims at addressing the importance of community-based health promotion. It would identify the origin of community health programs in Korea, which emphasized community involvement. And it would reveal the discontinuity of community-oriented health programs in the current health promotion activities. Finally, the methods of attaining community-based health promotion would be suggested. Results and Conclusion: Community-based health promotion had been implemented in rural areas by medical schools in the 1970s and 1980s, which emphasized the role of village health workers. But their roles has disappeared since the government-initiated health promotion policies and programs have been implemented in the mid-1990s. This paper addressed the factors contributing to this discontinuity, such as the expansion of heath insurance system, the change of health care discourses, the monopoly of resources for health promotion by government, and the bureaucratic approach to health promotion, etc. This paper suggested the utilization of voluntary and civic organizations in community for realizing the goal of community-based health promotion.

Community action is an essential component for health promotion. Through effective community action, a community can gain control over its health & health determinants, and improve the quality of its life. The Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion (WHO, 1984)stated that a health promotion program that stimulates and strengthens community health activity is one of the five main action areas in the field of health promotion. This paper reviews the meaning and key concept of community health promotion action, and discusses ways to strengthen community action as defined by the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion. It discusses the principle of community participation for health promotion, and, taking a successful example of a community-based health promotion program, it provides an illustrative example of how to build partnerships and coalitions in a community. Community development theories for community-based approaches are also introduced, along with their key concepts. Finally, the paper assesses the barriers to effective community health promotion action in Korea, and proposes several strategies for strengthening community action for health promotion.

Objectives: This paper describes the concept, principles, and strategies and directions for community participation in health promotion. Methods: Descriptions of and discussions on community participation in this paper are based on the results of selected peer-reviewed research articles, white papers, and practice manuals which address the issues of community participation and community empowerment, and principles and strategies for practice in community health promotion. Results: In ladder-of-community-participation models, the level of participation ranges from non-participation to the stages where communities have partnerships, delegated power, and control. Enhancement of participation is presented as a continuum of informing - consulting - involving - collaborating - empowering. For community participation to reach its fullest potential, the types and levels of participation desired should be clearly decided at the beginning. Along with community readiness for participation, public health system should also be in place readily to process community participation for health promotion with appropriate procedures, guidelines, methods, resources, and stakeholders' commitment and support. Conclusions: For the promotion of participation in community health, readiness for participation of both community and public health system should be prepared.

최근 도시재생 및 사회적 경제 등의 분야에서 도시 공동체가 주목받고 있다. 지금까지는 도시 공동체의 이상적 대안적 성격에 관심이 있었으나, 도시 공동체의 발전을 위해서는 현실의 공동체에 대해 구체적으로 분석하고 이를 통해 과제를 도출하는 것이 필요하다. 이러한 문제의식 하에, 본 논문에서는 최근 공동체 활동이 활발하게 전개되고 있는 대구광역시 동구 안심지역 주민들을 대상으로 그들의 사회경제적 특성, 지역사회에 대한 공동체 의식, 지역에서 이웃과 맺고 있는 관계와 공동체 활동에 참여하는 것과의 관계를 분석함으로써, 도시 공동체의 현황과 과제를 고찰하였다. 분석 결과 이 지역에서는 중산층, 고학력, 아파트 거주자들이 주로 참여하였으며, 이웃과 사회적 관계를 활발히 맺는 경우가 그렇지 않은 경우보다 참여가 활발하였다. 이러한 공동체 활동의 특정 계층 지향성은 다른 주민의 정보 접근을 제한하고 이는 참여 제한으로 이어지며 배제가 일어나는 원인이 될 수 있으므로, 본 논문에서는 계층 간 보다 개방적인 느슨한 연대가 필요하다고 제안한다.

정보 기술과 인터넷의 발달은 물리적인 공간이나 시간에 구애받지 않는 온라인 커뮤니티의 등장을 가능하게 하였다. 이러한 온라인 커뮤니티는 개인 및 기업의 의사 결정에 중요한 수단이 되고 있고 목적에 따라 여러 유형으로 나누어진다. 이 유형 중 온라인 게임커뮤니티는 온라인 게임 내에서 제공되는 커뮤니티와 해당 온라인 게임 관련 커뮤니티로 나누어 질 수 있다. 온라인 게임 관련 커뮤니티는 게시판과 이메일을 이용하여 게임 진행, 게임 관련 자료 등의 다양한 정보를 교환하며, 온라인 게임 내에서 제공되는 커뮤니티는 팀 구성, 아이템 거 래, 채팅등의 형태로 구성되고 있다. 이러한 온라인 게임 커뮤니티의 중요성은 날로 부각되고 있으나 온라인 게임 관련 커뮤니티와 게임 내에서 제공되는 커뮤니티는 그 중요성에 비해 차별화되어 있지 않다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 신세대의 취향에 적합하고 한국적인 커뮤니티로 차별화된 커뮤니티를 구축한 싸이월드의 사례를 분석하고 이를 온라인 게임에 적용하는 방안을 연구하였다. 본 논문은 온라인 게임 관련 커뮤니티와 온라인 게임 내에서 차별화된 커뮤니티 요소를 구축하고자하는 업체에게 도움을 줄 수 있다.
