본 연구는 예비적 저축행동 이론의 관점에서 가구주 근로유형이 가계저축에 미치는 영향을 분석하고, 근로유형별 가계저축에 미치는 영향 요인을 파악하고자 하였다. 실증분석 자료는 2009년도 한국복지패널조사(KOWEPS) 자료로, 가구주 근로유형이 상용직과 비상용직(임시직, 일용직, 공공근로)인 가계로 한정하여 2009년도 한국복지패널조사 가구 총 6,207가구 중 2,463가구를 본 연구의 실증분석에 사용하였다. 실증분석 결과, 가구주의 근로유형은 가계저축에 통계적으로 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으나 예비적 저축행동 이론에서 제시하는 기대와는 일치하지 않았다. 즉, 상용직 가구주 가계가 임시직, 일용직 혹은 공공근로의 비상용직 가구주 가계보다 더 많은 예비적 저축을 하였고, 나아가 더 많은 예비적 자산을 축적하는 것으로 나타났다. 가구주 근로유형별 가계저축에 영향을 미치는 요인을 살펴본 결과, 가구주 근로유형별로 영향 요인 및 정도에 차이가 존재하기는 하였으나 주로 월평균 총소비지출, 부채 유무, 순자산, 빈곤 여부, 가구원수, 기초보장 유무가 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 여기에서 특히 주목할 만한 것은 예비적 저축에 대한 기초보장의 정적 영향이었다.

The categories of national health problems may be mainly divided into health promotion, problems of diseases, and population-economic problems which are indirectly related to health. Of them, the problems of diseases will be exclusively dealt with this speech. Rurality and Disease Problems There are many differences between rural and urban areas. In general, indicators of rurality are small size of towns, dispersion of the population, remoteness from urban centers, inadequacy of public transportation, poor communication, inadequate sanitation, poor housing, poverty, little education lack of health personnels and facilities, and in-accessibility to health services. The influence of such conditions creates, directly or indirectly, many problems of diseases in the rural areas. Those art the occurrence of preventable diseases, deterioration and prolongation of illness due to loss of chance to get early treatment, decreased or prolonged labour force loss, unnecessary death, doubling of medical cost, and economic loss. Some Considerations of Innovative Approach The followings art some considerations of innovative approaches to the problems of diseases in the rural Korea. 1. It would be essential goal of the innovative approaches that the damage and economic loss due to diseases will be maintained to minimum level by minimizing the absolute amount of the diseases, and by moderating the fee for medical cares. The goal of the minimization of the disease amount may be achieved by preventive services and early treatment, and the goal of moderating the medical fee may be achieved by lowering the prime cost and by adjusting the medical fees to reasonable level. 2. Community health service or community medicine will be adopted as a innovative means to disease problems. In this case, a community is defined as an unit area where supply and utilization of primary service activities can be accomplished within a day. The essential nature o the community health service should be such activities as health promotion, preventive measures, medical care, and rehabilitation performing efficiently through the organized efforts of the residents in a community. Each service activity should cover all members of the residents in a community in its plan and performance. The cooperation of the community peoples in one of the essential elements for success of the service program, The motivations of their cooperative mood may be activated through several ways: when the participation of the residents in service program of especially the direct participation of organized cooperation of the area leaders art achieved through a means of health education: when the residents get actual experience of having received the benefit of good quality services; and when the health personnels being armed with an idealism that they art working in the areas to help health problems of the residents, maintain good human relationships with them. For the success of a community health service program, a personnel who is in charge of leadership and has an able, a sincere and a steady characters seems to be required in a community. The government should lead and support the community health service programs of the nation under the basis of results appeared in the demonstrative programs so as to be carried out the programs efficiently. Moss of the health problems may be treated properly in the community levels through suitable community health service programs but there might be some problems which art beyond their abilities to be dealt with. To solve such problems each community health service program should be under the referral systems which are connected with health centers, hospitals, and so forth. 3. An approach should be intensively groped to have a physician in each community. The shortage of physicians in rural areas is world-wide problem and so is the Korean situation. In the past the government has initiated a system of area-limited physician, coercion, and a small scale of scholarship program with unsatisfactory results. But there might be ways of achieving the goal by intervice, broadened, and continuous approaches. There will be several ways of approach to motivate the physicians to be settled in a rural community. They are, for examples, to expos the students to the community health service programs during training, to be run community health service programs by every health or medical schools and other main medical facilities, communication activities and advertisement, desire of community peoples to invite a physician, scholarship program, payment of satisfactory level, fulfilment of military obligation in case of a future draft, economic growth and development of rural communities, sufficiency of health and medical facilities, provision of proper medical care system, coercion, and so forth. And, hopefully, more useful reference data on the motivations may be available when a survey be conducted to the physicians who are presently engaging in the rural community levels. 4. In communities where the availability of a physician is difficult, a trial to use physician extenders, under certain conditions, may be considered. The reason is that it would be beneficial for the health of the residents to give them the remedies of primary medical care through the extenders rather than to leave their medical problems out of management. The followings are the conditions to be considered when the physician extenders are used: their positions will be prescribed as a temporary one instead of permanent one so as to allow easy replacement of the position with a physician applicant; the extender will be under periodic direction and supervision of a physician, and also referral channel will be provided: legal constraints will be placed upon the extenders primary care practice, and the physician extenders will used only under the public medical care system. 5. For the balanced health care delivery, a greater investment to the rural areas is needed to compensate weak points of a rurality. The characteristics of a rurality has been already mentioned. The objective of balanced service for rural communities to level up that of urban areas will be hard to achieve without greater efforts and supports. For example, rural communities need mobile powers more than urban areas, communication network is extremely necessary at health delivery facilities in rural areas as well as the need of urban areas, health and medical facilities in rural areas should be provided more substantially than those of urban areas to minimize, in a sense, the amount of patient consultation and request of laboratory specimens through referral system of which procedures are more troublesome in rural areas, and more intensive control measures against communicable diseases are needed in rural areas where greater numbers of cases are occurred under the poor sanitary conditions.

Because of differences in thoughts and ideology, our country, Korea has been deprived of national unity for some thirty years of time and tide. To achieve peaceful unification, the cultivation of national strength is of paramount importance. This national strength is also essential if Korea is to take rightful place in the international societies and to have the confidence of these societies. However, national strength can never be achieved in a short time. The fundamental elements in economic development that are directly conducive to the cultivation of national strength can be said to lie in -a stable political system, -exertion of powerful leadership, -cultivation of a spirit of diligence, self-help and cooperation, -modernization of human brain power, and -establishment of a scientific and well planned economic policy and strong enforcement of this policy. Our country, Korea, has attained brilliant economic development in the past 15 years under the strong leadership of president Park Chung Hee. However, there are still many problems to be solved. A few of them are: -housing and home problems, -increasing demand for employment, -increasing demand for staple food and -the need to improve international balance of payment. Solution of the above mentioned problems requires step by step scientific development of each sector and region of our contry. As a spearhead project in regional development, the Saemaul Campaign or new village movement can be cited. The campaign is now spreading throughout the country like a grass fire. However, such campaigns need considerable encouragement and support and the means for the desired development must be provided if the regional and sectoral development program is to sucdceed. The construction of large multipurpose dams in major river basin plays significant role in all aspects of national, regional and sectoral development. It ensures that the water resource, for which there is no substitute, is retained and utilized for irrigation of agricultural areas, production of power for industry, provision of water for domestic and industrial uses and control of river water. Water is the very essence of life and we must conserve and utilize what we have for the betterment of our peoples and their heir. The regional and social impact of construction of a large dam is enormous. It is intended to, and does, dras tically improve the "without-project" socio-economic conditions. A good example of this is the Soyanggang multipurpose dam. This project will significantly contribute to our national strength by utilizing the stored water for the benefit of human life and relief of flood and drought damages. Annual average precipitation in Korea is 1160mm, a comparatively abundant amount. The catchment areas of the Han River, Keum River, and Youngsan River are $62,755\textrm{km}^2$, accounting for 64% of the national total. Approximately 62% of the national population inhabits in this area, and 67% of the national gross product comes from the area. The annual population growth rate of the country is currently estimated at 1.7%, and every year the population growth in urban area increases at a rising rate. The population of Seoul, Pusan, and Taegu, the three major cities in Korea, is equal to one third of our national total. According to the census conducted on October 1, 1975, the population in the urban areas has increased by 384,000, whereas that in rural areas has decreased by 59,000,000 in the past five years. The composition of population between urban and rural areas varied from 41%~59% in 1959 to 48%~52% in 1975. To mitigate this treand towards concentration of population in urban areas, employment opportunities must be provided in regional and rural areas. However, heavy and chemical industries, which mitigate production and employment problems at the same time, must have abundant water and energy. Also increase in staple food production cannot be attained without water. At this point in time, when water demand is rapidly growing, it is essential for the country to provide as much a reservoir capacity as possible to capture the monsoon rainfall, which concentarated in the rainy seaon from June to Septesmber, and conserve the water for year round use. The floods, which at one time we called "the devil" have now become a source of immense benefit to Korea. Let me explain the topographic condition in Korea. In northern and eastern areas we have high mountains and rugged country. Our rivers originate in these mountains and flow in a general southerly or westerly direction throught ancient plains. These plains were formed by progressive deposition of sediments from the mountains and provide our country with large areas of fertile land, emminently suited to settlement and irrigated agricultural development. It is, therefore, quite natural that these areas should become the polar point for our regional development program. Hower, we are fortunate in that we have an additional area or areas, which can be used for agricultural production and settlement of our peoples, particularly those peoples who may be displaced by the formation of our reservoirs. I am speaking of the tidelands along the western and southern coasts. The other day the Ministry of Agriculture and Fishery informed the public of a tideland reclamation of which 400,000 hectares will be used for growing rice as part of our national food self-sufficiency programme. Now, again, we arrive at the need for water, as without it we cannot realize this ambitious programme. And again we need those dams to provide it. As I mentioned before, dams not only provide us with essential water for agriculture, domestic and industrial use, but provide us with electrical energy, as it is generally extremely economical to use the water being release for the former purposes to drive turbines and generators. At the present time we have 13 hydro-electric power plants with an installed capacity of 711,000 kilowatts equal to 16% of our national total. There are about 110 potential dams ites in the country, which could yield about 2,300,000 kilowatts of hydro-electric power. There are about 54 sites suitable for pumped storage which could produce a further 38,600,000 kilowatts of power. All available if we carefully develop our water resources. To summarize, water resource development is essential to the regional development program and the welfare of our people, it must proceed hand-in-hand with other aspects of regional development such as land impovement, high way extension, development of our forests, erosion control, and develop ment of heavy and chemical industries. Through the successful implementation of such an integrated regional development program, we can look forward to a period of national strength, and due recognition of our country by the worlds societies.

1994년 가을 한국을 방문하였을 때 놀란 것 온 도시 근교에 숲과 같이 세워진 고층 아파트 단지와 그 수요의 배경이 된 서울, 수원을 비롯한 수도권의 인구 집중이었다. 이러한 인구 집중을 가져온 것은 바로 제2차, 3차 산업의 발달이었다. 그 이후 6년만인 2000년 3월에 다시 농촌과 농촌지도사업의 변화 동향을 살펴보기 위하여 농가 방문, 도 농업기술원 및 시 ${\cdot}$ 군농업 기술센터를 방문하면서 더욱 진전된 아파트군과 도시 근교의 비닐 하우스 단지였으며, 이는 한국이 지속적인 경제 발전을 하고 있다는 한 증거였다. 한국은 1997년에 내습한 통화위기로 IMF의 구제 금융을 받게 되었고, 이로 인하여 한국 경제는 IMF의 관리하에 있었으나 1년만에 회복의 기미를 보이기 시작하였으며, 1999에는 GDP 성장률이 10.7%에 달하였다. 한국 정부는 이 시기에 구조개혁을 단행하여 금융, 기업, 노동, 공공의 각 부분에 개혁을 단행하였다. 특히 정부로서는 정부 조직을 개편하여 지방화, 행정 조직 인원의 삭감, 농업 예산의 축소하는 방향으로 나아갔고 공기업을 민영화하여 농업 단체의 통합, 각종 규제를 철폐하였다. 중앙 정부의 권력이 지방으로 많이 이양되어 시장, 군수 등의 권한이 크게 늘어났다. 농촌지도사업도 IMF 관리하의 정부 조직 개편 및 규제 완화의 대상이 되었다. 지금까지 중앙 정부 소속이었던 농촌지도 사업이 지방화의 영향으로 시 ${\cdot}$ 군으로 이관되었다. 이것에 동반하여 농촌지도소 수의 축소(64%), 지도 직원의 감원(24%), 사업 예산의 감소 등으로 나타났다. 이러한 개편 과정에서 농촌지도사업의 기본적인 방향을 정하는 것은 중앙의 농촌진흥청이 맡고 인사와 기술 개발, 지원은 도농업기술원, 사업운영 책임은 시 ${\cdot}$ 군에서 맡는 체제로 개편되었다. 시 ${\cdot}$ 군 단계의 농촌지도사업은 담당 기구가 농촌지도소에서 농업기술센터로 그 명칭이 변경되었고, 설치권자가 군수로 되었으며, 그 기능에 기술 개발 업무가 더해졌으며, 농촌지도사 및 생활지도사의 수가 크게 감소되었다. 최근에 한국의 농촌 및 농촌지도사업을 관찰한 결과, 이러한 중앙, 도 시 군의 지도 기능 분담이 그렇게 잘 인식되어 있는 것만은 아닌 면도 있는 것으로 보였다. 이러한 구조 개선을 계기로 해서 농촌의 현실을 반영한 실효성 있는 농촌진흥에 기여할 수 있는 농촌지도사업으로 재출발한다는 의의를 살릴 수 있도록 농촌진흥청은 농업기술센터의 동태를 철저하게 살피고 이와 관련한 도농업기술원의 대응을 파악하여 이를 기초로 기능을 발휘하도록 만들어야 할 것이다. 국가에서 이관된 현지의 농촌지도 거점인 농업기술센터에 관하여 농촌지도소가 개칭되어 농업기술센터가 되었고 조직적인 면에서도 기술개발과가 설치되었다. 이는 현지에서의 기술 개발이 가능하게 된 점과 현지에서 원하는 과제를 신속하게 대응하여 도와 국가의 시험연구 과제로 삼을 수 있게 된 것은 시험 연구 사업에서 크게 평가받을 만한 발전이라 할 것이다. 그러나, 농촌지도 직원이 다른 행정 업무도 겸무하여 될 경우 영농 환경을 좋게 하는 직접적인 행정에 관한 업무에서는 겸무하므로서 농가도 편리해지고, 보급지도의 효과도 촉진되는 경우가 있으나 검사, 취체 업무는 반드시 피해야 할 일이다. 동일인이 이것을 담당하게 되면 농가에게 안심감을 잃어버리고 보급 효과는 기대할 수 없게 될 것이다. 한국의 농촌지도사업의 보급 내용은 농업자재의 절약, 첨단농업기술의 개발, 이를 기반으로 수출농업의 촉진과 생산성 향상, 시장에 강한 농업의 구축 등에 힘을 쏟고 있는 것으로 보였다. 그러나 이러한 농업의 추구는 약탈농업을 추구하는 등 지속적 농업이 되지 않을 가능성이 높아지게 된다. 앞으로 지속적인 농업에 관하여 보다 더 많은 관심을 기울여야 할 것이다. 선진농가들은 기술이나 경영 혁신을 위하여 연구 개발을 위한 정보의 수집과 연구회의 필요성을 크게 강조하고 있었다. 그러나 이러한 선진 농가 이외에 소규모의 농업소득이 낮은 농가도 있었다. 이러한 농가에게는 농업경영에 대한 방향 설정과 추진 방법에 대한 적절한 상담 상대가 없는 것으로 보였다. 이러한 농가들에 대한 시의적절한 정보의 전달, 자력으로 기술과 경영 방책을 만들어내는 힘을 길러주는 지도가 필요하다. 이를 위한 방책으로 그룹의 육성과 가입 촉진이 유효할 것이다. 따라서 한국에 있어서 농촌지도 방법은 크게 두 가지 대상을 의식하여 대 선진농가의 경우에 는 상담 기능, 대 소규모 농가의 청우에는 전달 ${\cdot}$ 교육 기능의 발휘에 있을 것이다. 상담 기능은 정보의 제공과 과도하지 않은 방책을 선택 할 수 있도록 지도 조언하는 것이, 전달 ${\cdot}$ 교육 기능은 과제해결 과정을 체득하게 하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 인터넷의 활용 방법, e-메일에 의한 정보교환 시스템화 등의 연구가 진행되고 있다. 인원의 감소나 겸무화의 진행에 따라 이러한 업무의 수행이 쉬운 것은 아니라고 생각되고, 일 대 일의 지도는 어려울 것이나 집단 지도로는 가능한 측면도 있을 것으로 사료된다.
