Local self-governing bodies have created community identity to activate local communities. community identity is one of the very effective ways to establish a different image from other self-governing bodies and to raise locals' love of hometown and sense of belonging. In addition to community identity., there are several things to form identity such as symbols (like flowers, birds, and animals) of local self-governing bodies or characters visualizing figures, tradition, and specialties of the region. Recently local governments have introduced various programs such as brand planning like city brand, and local events. This study analyses the basic elements, like symbol mark, logotype, and color, among visual elements of the current local self-governing bodies community identity. and conducts a comparative analysis of the visual elements of symbols and characters. The results show that those community identities and other design elements lack differentiation and consistency among visual elements. To create differentiated image of local self-governing bodies, it needs to develop unique and various themes of the region and to generate synergy effect through consistency and interactions among various visual effects based on community identity.

The main purpose of this study is to explore the structure of local government social welfare finance and tendency of changing structure and what affects the change. We select GuRoGu budget from 2000 to 2007 as one of local governments in Korea to perform the study goal. After we analyzed the contents of the budget, we have developed the framework of analysis for reclassifying local government welfare budget. First of all, we find utility of the framework of analysis which classify local government social welfare budget as target groups, properties, and the source of the finance. Secondly, the structure of local government welfare finance has changed for 8 years. The rate of finance for direct service has risen more than that for indirect service, and the rate of finance providing material(or service) type has risen more than that of providing monetary type. The rate of the finance from central government has grown up rapidly, whereas that from local government has fallen off. The hypotheses that the rate of financial self-reliance and the increase rate of social welfare expenditure to the previous year play a significant role to the rate of social welfare expenditure are not clear in our study. But we find the central government's effects to the local government welfare budget has grown up. So, we propose if we analyze the hypothesis of incrementalism, we must divide the effects of the previous year expenditure from the effects of central government's policy.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to identify the correlation among job stress, drinking, and smoking of local government staff. Methods: The participants of this study were 205 government staffs working in a local government office. The data were collected by self-report using questionnaires from March 2 to April 30, 2009. The data were analyzed using t-test, Chisquare test, ANOVA, and Man-Whitney test. Results: Physical stress was the highest in job stress components. Majority of the participants (96%) had drinking experiences more than once per month. 25.4% of respondents reported they drank more than 10 glasses each time. Smoking was habitual in 36.6% of the subjects and 28% of subjects had participation in a smoking cessation program. Respondents who reported high job stress had a longer history of smoking. Conclusions: Job stress was highly associated with drinking and smoking. Stress control programs and smoking and alcohol cessation/moderation programs could be beneficial for the health of government staffs.

Objectives: We examined the association between social expenditures of the local government and the mortality level in Korea, 2004 to 2010. Methods: We used social expenditure data of 230 local governments during 2004 to 2010 from the Social Expenditure Database prepared by the Korean Institute for Health and Social Affairs. Fixed effect panel data regression analysis was adopted to look for associations between social expenditures and age-standardized mortality and the premature death index. Results: Social expenditures of local governments per capita was not significantly associated with standardized mortality but was associated with the premature death index (decline of 1.0 [for males] and 0.5 [for females] for each expenditure of 100 000 Korean won, i.e., approximately 100 US dollar). As an index of the voluntary effort of local governments, the self-managed project ratio was associated with a decline in the standardized mortality in females (decline of 0.4 for each increase of 1%). The share of health care was not significant. Conclusions: There were associations between social expenditures of the local government and the mortality level in Korea. In particular, social expenditures per capita were significantly associated with a decline in premature death. However, the voluntary efforts of local governments were not significantly related to the decline in premature death.

This study conducted a regression analysis on 312 local government officials in Gyeonggi-do to verify the hypothesis on the relationship between job autonomy and organizational citizenship behavior. Path analysis was conducted to analyze the mediating effect of organizational fairness recognition and the moderating effect of self-efficacy. Looking at the analysis results, first, it was confirmed that the higher the degree of job autonomy perceived by the members of the organization, the more positive (+) organizational citizenship behavior was. Second, the partial mediating effect of procedural justice was confirmed in the relationship between autonomy and organizational citizenship behavior. On the other hand, the mediating effect of distributional justice was rejected in the relationship between autonomy and organizational citizenship behavior. Third, self-efficacy controlled the mediating role between job autonomy and organizational citizenship behavior in recognition of procedural justice. Fourth, it was analyzed that self-efficacy plays a controlling role between job autonomy and organizational citizenship behavior. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the development of organizational behavior theory through preceding factors of organizational citizenship behavior to improve the organizational performance of local public officials.

e-Learning content can be defined as digital content to achieve educational goals. Since it is an educational material that can be distributed in offline, online, and mobile environments, it is important to create content that meets the learner's education environment and educational goals. In particular, if the learner is a public official, the vision, philosophy, and characteristics of each local government must reflect. As non-face-to-face online education expands further due to the COVID-19 pandemic, local governments that have relied on onsite education in the past urgently require developing strong basic competency education and special task competency content that reflect regional characteristics. Such e-learning content, however, hardly exists and the ability to independently develop them is also insufficient. In this circumstance, this case study describes the process of self-production of e-learning content suitable for Busan's characteristics by the Human Resource Development (HRD) Institute of Busan City, a local government. The field of instructional design and instructional technology is always evolving and growing by blending technological innovation into instructional platform design and adapting to the changes in society. Busan HRD Institute (BHI), therefore, tried to implement blended learning by developing content that reflected the recent trend of micro-learning in e-learning through a detailed analysis. For this, an e-learning content developer with certain requirements was selected and contracted, and the process of developing content through a collaboration between the client and developer was described in this study according to the ADDIE model of Instructional Systems Development (ISD).

This study examines the main elements, concepts, and directions of 'cultural accessibility' in the field of cultural arts education through the French case. Above all, 'cultural accessibility' is viewed from the perspective of the problems of 'social exclusion' and the corresponding 'participation'. We discuss strategies for applying 'cultural accessibility' through French policy discussions. France is implementing this consistent policy structure through the development of its local self-government system. We first look at the current status of French cultural policy and cultural accessibility, and the participation. Next, we will discuss separately into the cultural arts education of the central government and those of local governments. For application to Korea, we propose the application of education to apply 'culture of public values', the establishment of autonomy in cultural arts education, and the application of a dual strategy for public advocacy.

Article 117, Paragraph 1 of the 「Constitution」 states that "Local governments may enact provisions relating to local autonomy, within the limit of Acts and subordinate statutes". It restricts the enactment of effective self-government laws. The fundamental problem-solving is securing the right to self-governing legislation through constitutional amendment. Therefore, it must be revised to "Local governments can make regulations on self-government to the extent that they handle resident welfare affairs in accordance with the subsidiarity and do not violate the law." In the long-term perspective, the current education council problem, which is contrary to the constitution, has to be revived as a constitutional independent education committee system, and the voting agency and the executive agency must go together and education councilors must have about 10 years of experience in education and education administration. The current superintendent's election system is of great significance in establishing democratic legitimacy by ensuring residents' right to vote and securing a superintendent's representation of residents. It hasn't been long since the system was implemented, but there are some side effects and it is argued that the election system should be replaced by the appointment by the head of the local government, the running mate system or the joint registration system. However it is thought that it is necessary to minimize and supplement the side effects rather than fixing the system as it violates the Constitution of the local education autonomy system.
