  • There have been many conflicts in Pyeongtaek-Dangjin Port among central government, metropolitan council, and cities over the jurisdiction of reclaimed port area, an international passenger terminal construction and a bridge between the port and Dangjin area. This study found out two causes for the conflicts in terms of governance. First, the current governance structure of Pyeongtaek-Dangjin port has high levels of conflict and disputes among stakeholder. Second, there is no leading agency which is responsible for the future development of the port. It is very important to decrease the possibility of conflict and to establish leading agency. Measures to decrease the likelihood of conflict include establishment of conflict resolution mechanism, the clarification of the facts and applicable law, mutual exchanges between stakeholder. Measures to establish a leading agency include the introduction of a single governance, establishment of Pyeongtaek-Dangjin Port Authority, central-local combined governance, and empowering PA to do all port management.

The findings of the study have shown the governance for the case regions is still being characterized with a very formal governance being dominated by the strong administrative initiative and expediency. What have been presented as the improvement plans of policy are as follows: First, core provisions of the ordinances must be strengthened to mandatory regulations, and some ways to check and supplement such as monitoring, policy forums by public-private partnership, etc. are required for the sake of the effective operation of the ordinances. Second, in relation to the bases of competence according to the roles of core governance players, it is necessary to overcome the limitations of job rotation system, align the administrative support systems, expand the functions of a policy committee based on public-private cooperation and operate it effectively in the case of administration, and to strengthen a footing of a civilian community and the perspectives of political incubation in administration and provide support projects contributing to the growth of the corporations in the case of the entrusted corporation, and to align the operating systems of the centers, review the introduction of a system with a full-time center head, continuously provide specialized education and improve the working environment in the case of the support centers.

  • This research has been conducted to find answers to the questions of how projects that support local businesses work in areas undergoing gentrification and what are the achievements and limitations of these projects, based on the case studies of Brixton Pound and Pop Brixton supporting local businesses in Brixton in the London borough of Lambeth. To this end, this study collected data through interviews with local businesses belonging to each project and analysed them based on prior research on the projects, evaluation reports, and articles in the media. It began by investigating the supporting mechanisms of projects that support local businesses in the area, and then analysed and evaluated the projects' contribution to local businesses and the impact on the local community according to these mechanisms. The two projects in the case study showed contrasts in their support mechanisms, governance, and the role of Lambeth Council, and the local businesses' evaluations of the projects' support differed depending not only on the support mechanism of each project but also on business type and perceptions of the impact of gentrification.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze governance in the business processes of Jeju's proposed 'Happy Living Area.' This study found Jeju's 'Happy Living Area' plans for governance were realized and conflicts may frequently occur in future business processes. Furthermore, roles and support systems were measured for the development council of 'Happy Living Area.' This paper reports findings from a case study on community planning for a public art project. This study recommends public-private governance in terms of process factors as well as role considerations. With respect to process factors, administrative agencies and citizen participation are examined. Second, the Living Area Council should play a mediating role between central and local governments as well as residents. Third, Happy Living Zones' Advisory Centre should undertake an advisory role. Fourth, consultation between public and private sectors is needed to establish evaluation criteria for reviewing proposals from subordinate administrative agencies. Fifth, local government systems should be managed by autonomous municipalities. Concerning role considerations, a new 'Personality for Governance' position should be established for performing different roles in the project implementation stage.

  • This study aims to suggest strategies of development and management for large parks by examining experimental cases of park governance models related to a shift away from public administration. The shifts towards governance as well as public-private partnership in city parks have involved the need for new public management. This study has analyzed two exemplary cases of Presidio Park and Sydney Harbour National Park in the aspects of planning process and management strategies, as the results derived the meaning and effect of park governance management and is also an essential prerequisite for the achievement of the model. There are six dimensions of research frames--namely policy, governance, partnership, finances and funds, design and maintenance-management, and evaluation-monitoring-taken as the basis for this study. Through the analysis, several key characteristics of these cases were elicited. First, the park planning process must be consistent in carrying a policy from planning to implementation, and furthermore, an independent operation body which can properly authorize an execution and uphold its responsibility from the public could serve in adaptable park services. Second, it has been suggested to build various partnerships with PAs and NGOs, private corporations, community groups, and academic institutes that allow it to expand the diversity of the park activities. Third, there has been experimental exploration to achieve a financially self-sufficient model by establishing internal revenue models and hence allow the reduction of reliance on public finances. The result of this type of park management would allow for improving park quality and make the park space a vital part of the local economy. Fourth, the strategies for a local community's participation are needed to allow the community to become a producer as well as a consumer. This study shows that the direction and significance of the park governance model regarding the fact that the plans sought by the two parks are extending the layout of public-centered discussion to the private sector and the third non-governmental sector including to the local community group. This shows both implications and limitations, such as the risk of privatization through non-governmental activities at the park or the violation of essential functions as a public good due to a profit-generating management policy for securing financial self-sufficiency. At the current point in which plans are under way for the development and management of large parks, a park governance model requires continuous study and expansion of discussion in the future.

  • The subject of this study is whether the relevant ordinances of Chungcheongnam-do's five local governments, operating intermediary support organizations for contracted-out community building, comply with the regional innovation and cooperative governance-based perspective. The examination results are summarized as follows. About the normative system: first, village building does not present that it is a participation- and cooperation-based collective activity of various related actors; second, the cooperative governance-based implementation system was not presented as a key term; third, "numerous relevant subjects' participation" and "democratic decision-making and cooperative promotion" are not presented as basic principles; fourth, the subjects are limited to residents and the administration, and only their responsibilities are presented. About the effectiveness system: first, the establishment of a master plan, a primary means, and the establishment of an in-charge department and collaboration system in the administration are presented as optional provisions; second, the nature of the relevant committees and intermediary support organizations is not presented as "public-private cooperation-based system"; third, the area of the function and authority of the relevant committees is limited to review and consultation. Fourth, the related information about the intermediary support organization structure and system, the establishment and operation of the secretariat, and the practical operation of the center is not presented. In sum, to make related ordinances become institutional grounds with stronger effectiveness, reconstructing them by strictly applying the perspectives of regional innovation and cooperative governance is necessary.

  • In 1990, the City of Bucheon, Geonggi Province, became the first local government to create its own C.I Soon afterwards, this idea of having one's own C.I spread to the rest of the localities in Korea. Now, in 2003, 218 local governments have created their on Corporate Identities. It was an effort on the part or each local government to give a sense of belonging to the local community by creating a C.I which embodies, symbolizes and represents what is most unique about the locality and its community. It is something that each member of that community can identify himself or herself with. It is also something with which people from other localities can readily recognize that local community as this or that, thus increasing the brand-name-value of the locality. A friendly and easily recognizable C.I has an indirect effect of making the local government more accessible to the ordinary people, at least psychologically, overcoming the traditional image of overbearing officialdom of the bureaucracy. In this article, we propose to investigate whether the 218 local government C.Is, which have been created since 1990, have actually effected the above kinds of possible changes in the local governance or not. To that end, we will examine all 218 local government C.Is if they are successfully symbolizations of the local characters and identities. We will also try to point out sly problems, if there are any, and propose some alternative approaches to the designing of Local Government C.Is, by analyzing the mutual similarities in the very shapes and colors among all the 218 local government C.Is. It is our hope that this analyses will be of some use in the future formulations of the local policies for a more responsive local governance.

  • In Korea, various community investment renewable project models are being implemented to increase community acceptance of renewable energy. An important factor for enhancing local acceptance is that renewable energy projects have a positive effect on revitalizing the local economy such as income increase or job creation for residents and local companies. To maximize the local economic effect of large-scale community investment renewable energy projects, this study developed an evaluation index for local economy activation, whose indicators are the local return on investment, local companies' participation, local job creation, regional cooperation, transparency, and governance. Analysis of existing evaluation indicators and current renewable projects, financial analysis, and expert interviews were used in this research. The pilot evaluation determined that, the local economic effect was high in the following order: a fund investment wind project (Gangwon), benefit-sharing wind project (Jeju), and general wind project. In particular, residents' investment amount, the number of participating residents, and the amount and transparency of the regional cooperation fund were key factors to expand the effect of local economy activation. This evaluation index could be used in public bidding for renewable energy projects such as offshore wind zoning areas of local government.

  • In order to establish and operate a rapid and effective disaster safety management system in an emergency situation that threatens the safety of citizens, such as disaster, accident or terrorism, appropriate responses are necessary. An integrated task execution system for rapid response and restoration should be implemented not only by the central ministries related to disaster management and response, but also by local governments, NGO, and individuals, under clear role sharing. In the case of Seoul city, it is urgent to establish an effective disaster management system for preventing and responding to disasters, because of the increasing possibility of natural disasters due to climate change, the threat of terrorism, urban decay and the industrial accidents. From the perspective of governance, this study tried to seek out countermeasures such as disaster response system and command system at disaster site centering on Seoul city government interdepartmental organization system, implementation process and systematization of response procedures.
