The Korean health care system is under great controversy. Over the last 30 years, main goal of health policies was to pursue equal access of health care services. However, another goal of health policies laid on efficiency and Quality of care, it had lower priorities. Superficially, controversy stems from priority setting among goals of health care system, equity, efficiency and quality. At a deeper level, arguments arise from disagreement and confusion about the values of Korean health care system. One of the value spectrums believes that health care is the basic right of human beings, therefore it should be produced and distributed on need approach, and needs are known to be decided by professionals. If we accept need approach, health care is a pubic good. Another value of spectrums considers that health care should be distributed on demand approach. Demand approach means that health care is a consumption good on the positive economics, while normative judgement believes that health care is a public good. In equity aspect, health care is considered as a public good. Over the last several years, some of scholars proposed health care reform based on the principle of competition which is based on demand approach. Others argue that the competition principle based on demand approach is not appropriate for the reform proposal, because health care has to be approached on need base. If we do not make explicit values we should adopt, consensus building for reform is nearly impossible. From this perspective, this article will review an ideology and reality in health policies in Korea.

Recently, the city development policies are being switched to the policies focusing on recession worldwide. Even though South Korea is also facing the phenomena that small and medium-sized cities are downsized because of a decrease in population and an aging society problem, there is lack of solutions and even they are still planning city development policies based on prospect of high growth. This study is featuring 4 viewpoints depending on shrinking population trend in 7 small and medium sized local cities, which are chosen as downsized cities. It is dealing with population peak, current population, 2030 population, and 2040 population viewpoints. And this study uses downsizing simulation that suggests optimum area that fits population and then shows visual check of the status of the small and medium sized local cities. The area of the small and medium sized local cities are expanded more than needs when they are on population peak point. However, they need only 20% to 25% of current area in 2030 and 2040. The most important thing is realizing the seriousness and facing up to the 'shrinking' phenomena that each small and medium-sized cities suffer. Therefore, this study has significance for presenting the status of small and medium-sized cities' problems in South Korea.

Child care in Korea has been officially institutionalized due to the legislation of the Child Care Act in 1991. Since then, the predominant social phenomena such as growing female workforce, more intensified female education, and the low birth rates have led the stronger demand for child care at the national level. Accordingly, the supply of child care services and the demand of families using the services have increased dramatically, producing enhancement of the quality of child care via improved and extended laws and regulations. Such movements have arisen academic interests and policy issues to specific sectors with details including child care policies, curriculum and professionals working with young children at child care centers, needs of children and their families attending child care centers, and program evaluations.

Objectives: This study aimed to develop a health needs assessment (HNA) tool for persons with brain disorders and to assess the unmet needs of persons with brain disorders using the developed tool. Methods: The authors used consensus methods to develop a HNA tool. Using a randomized stratified systematic sampling method adjusted for sex, age, and districts, 57 registered persons (27 severe and 30 mild cases) with brain disorders dwelling in Seoul, South Korea were chosen and medical specialists investigated all of the subjects with the developed tools. Results: The HNA tool for brain disorders we developed included four categories: 1) medical interventions and operations, 2) assistive devices, 3) rehabilitation therapy, and 4) regular follow-up. This study also found that 71.9% of the subjects did not receive appropriate medical care, which implies that the severity of their disability is likely to be exacerbated and permanent, and the loss irrecoverable. Conclusions: Our results showed that the HNA tool for persons with brain disorders based on unmet needs defined by physicians can be a useful method for evaluating the appropriateness and necessity of medical services offered to the disabled, and it can serve as the norm for providing health care services for disabled persons. Further studies should be undertaken to increase validity and reliability of the tool. Fundamental research investigating the factors generating or affecting the unmet needs is necessary; its results could serve as basis for developing policies to eliminate or alleviate these factors.

민간 주도로 오랫동안 실시되던 문해교육이 2006년 성인문해교육지원사업을 필두로, 성인문해교육 학력인정제도, 국가 및 지자체의 문해교육센터 설치 등을 통해 빠른 속도로 제도화되고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 성인문해교육정책을 선도해온 영국과 호주 사례를 분석하여 우리나라 문해교육 정책이 현대사회의 문해교육 요구를 적절히 담고 있는지를 검토하고자 하였다. 비교 준거로서 국가문해교육정책의 중심이 되는 4개 요소(문해교육 추진기반, 문해교육 지원정책, 문해교사 자격정책, 성과관리정책)를 검토하였다. 분석 결과, 우리나라의 경우 2007년 평생교육법 전부개정을 통해 문해교육사업 및 학력인정문해교육제도에 대한 프레임?을 마련하면서 단 기간에 외형적으로는 영국과 호주에 준하는 문해교육지원체제를 구축했다고 평가할 수 있다. 그러나 모든 성인의 역량 개발을 지원하는 양국에 비해 우리나라 문해교육 대상은 저학력 중고령층이고, 문해교사제도 및 성과관리 등이 형식적으로 이루어지는 경향이 있다. 이에 따라 우리나라에서도 영국과 호주처럼 성인 모두의 역량 개발을 지원하는 방향으로 문해교육 패러다임을 혁신하고, 그에 맞추어 문해교육정책 전반을 재구조화할 필요가 있다.

Performance specifications leave out unnesessary “how to” or detail and give the manufacturer latitude to determine how to best meet our stated needs. This will increase MND's access to commercial, state-of-the-art technology. However, we find that it is too early to expand the use of performance specification due to the poor domestic infrastructure. To expand the use of performance specification in defense area, this paper suggests the basic principles about which items we should select and which procedeure we should follow.

대전의 원도심은 인구감소 건물의 공동화 현상으로 옛 중심시가지를 비롯하여 인근 도시공간의 쇠퇴가 현저하게 진행 되어왔다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서는 개성을 살린 활성화 방안이 필요하지만, 어떤 한 시점을 기준으로 파악할 수 있는 역사와 문화적 자원을 활용하여 지역사회의 재생공간을 만들 수 있는 방안 마련도 중요하다. 대전의 원도심은 일단 그 공간을 지탱 해 온 산업에 대한 건축물 등, 지역의 건축적 문화유산이 다수 존재하고 있으며, 그 대부분은 보편적 가치를 가지고 있음에도 불구하고 아무런 활용방안이 마련하지 못한 채 피폐해져가는 실정이다. 이에 역사적으로 지역의 발전에 초석이 된 역사자원으로써 근대산업유산에 중요성과 가치를 평가하기 위한 기준을 알아보고, 활용사례를 통해 근대도시 대전의 발전에 근간이 되어온 산업유산에 가치와 활용을 재검토하는 의미로 근대 산업유산의 보존 및 대상을 활용한 도시재생 방안에 필요성을 알아보고자 하였다. 또한 행정적인 노력에 한계점을 인식하고, 이에 따른 해결방안을 모색하여 지방자치단체와 민간 등 폭넓은 사람들에 일체적 노력의 필요성을 다루고자하였다. 이는 결과적으로 지역 활성화에 있어서 역사적 근대산업유산을 활용을 통해 도시 사용자 간의 커뮤니케이션과 공동체 문화공간으로 재생되도록 정책의 연구와 산업유산을 포함하는 경관적 범위의 보존, 사회단체나 사회적 기업과 연계된 보존을 전제로 한 능동적이고 개방적인 문화재 활용정책을 마련하고, 이를 위해 소유자간의 조정 등에 노력이 전제한 정책이 필요하다는 것을 제언하고자 한다.

A corporate university (CU) is an educational institution established by an organization whose primary purpose is not education. Traditionally, a CU is considered a training facility to improve organizational performance. However, the proliferation of the CU has engendered its diverse purposes, roles, and forms. This study attempts to identify three types of the existing CUs: (a) a CU to improve organizational performance; (b) a CU to satisfy employees' learning needs; and (c) a CU to develop a competent national workforce. Also, this study suggests a holistic CU model including the three CU types. In order to transform a CU to a multifunctional CU embracing all three types of CU, organizations should (a) provide communication and collaboration channels, (b) present clear organizational goals, (c) establish organizational policies/systems to encourage learning in CUs, and (d) devise an effective approach to evaluate the impact of CUs. Organization' s critical roles in the development of CUs can assist CUs in becoming the core of knowledge management.

The propulsive strategy of the 3rd five-year plan can be summarized into three parts; firstly, it is to divert from the technical approach, such as law reform, and to focus more on the culture in order to transform the perspectives of the employers and the employees. Secondly, it is to provide distinct policies for the areas prone to industrial accidents. Thirdly, the central government needs to seek decentralization and become a promoter of the strategy by abandoning its former restrictions, providing data about the strategy and building infrastructure.
