폭넓은 지식과 정보의 열린공간에서 시민들은 지식과 정보의 수준이 높아지고 중앙집권적 행정구도에서 지방분권적 자치행정으로 행정권한의 패러다임이 바뀜에 따라 사회 각 분야에서 직 간접적으로 공공기관에 참석하려는 시민들이 증가하고 그 참여방법도 다양해지고 있다. 본 연구는 지방자치행정기관에서 시행하고 있는 시민참여제도를 공공도서관의 주민참여측면에서 고찰하였고 지방자치행정기관의 다양한 시민참여제도를 공공도서관의 효율적 경영을 위한 주민참여프로그램으로 응용하여 보았다. 또한 이와 같은 공공도서관 주민참여프로그램들의 실태를 조사 분석한 후, 주민참여프로그램의 활성화 전략을 제시하였다.

과학기술 분야의 시민참여의 필요성과 정당성은 이미 충분히 인정되고 있다. 이에 따라서 여러 국가에서 이를 제도화하고 있으며 많은 STS학자들은 이를 대상으로 연구를 진행하고 있다. 그러나 최근 들어 비제도화된 시민참여 혹은 사회운동적 성격을 지닌 시민참여에 대한 관심이 부각되고 있다. 이는 그동안 진행된 제도화된 시민참여에 초점을 맞춘 연구들이 포괄하지 못한 것으로서 시민참여의 다양한 양상과 역동성을 보여주고 있다. 이 연구는 비제도화된 시민참여와 이와 유사한 문제의식을 나타내고 있는 '수행되지 않은 과학(Undone Science)' 등에 대한 이론적 논의를 간략하게 정리하고, 이를 통해서 살펴볼 수 있는 한국의 2가지 사례를 구체적으로 분석해볼 것이다. 첫 번째 사례는 '환경보건' 분야로서, 이 분야는 한국에서 2000년대 초에 본격적으로 정책 연구의제로 등장하였고 이어서 법제도화 되었다. 두 번째 사례는 산업보건 분야에서 2000년대 초부터 크게 쟁점화 되었던 '근골격계 직업병' 문제이다. 우리는 이 두 사례를 통해서 시민사회 노동조합이 '환경보건'과 근골격계 직업병' 문제를 제기하면서 어떻게 이 문제들을 정부의 정책 연구 의제로 만들었는가를 살펴보게 될 것이다. 이는 한국에서 비제도화된 시민참여 혹은 '수행되지 않은 과학' 하기가 어떤 식으로 나타나고 있는지를 보여줄 것이다.

This study conducted a visual impact assessment of an apartment complex project proposed in Jungkye-dong, Seoul. Three design alternatives of the project-alternatives 1, 2, and 3-which differed in form, color, scale, and arrangement of buildings were simulated with computer image processing technique. The simulations were presented to the public who were mainly residents in the project area, and visual impact resulted from the alternatives was assessed by them. Their responses were then statistically analyzed. It was found that, in terms of compatibility with the surrounding landscape, alternative 1 was the most favourable because it was more traditional, natural, and diverse than alternatives 2 and 3. At the same time, the alternative was most preferred by the public because it was more plain, natural, and diverse than other alternatives. It was suggested that the visual impact assessment with public participation conducted in this study would help both planners and the public to make more intelligent decisions.

A high prevalence of Opisthorchis viverrini infection is usually found in wetland geographical areas of Thailand where people have traditional behavior of eating uncooked freshwater fish dishes which results in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) development. There were several approaches for reducing opisthorchiasis-linked CCA, but the prevalence remains high. To develop community participation as a suitable model for CCA prevention is, firstly, to know what factors are related. We therefore aimed to investigate factors associated with the community participation in CCA prevention among rural residents in wetland areas of Ubon Ratchathani, Thailand. This was a cross-sectional analytic study. All participants were 30-69 years of age, and only one member per house was invited to participate. A total of 906 participants were interviewed and asked to complete questionnaires. Independent variables were socio-demographic parameters, knowledge, health belief and behavior to prevent CCA. The dependent variable was community participation for CCA prevention. Descriptive statistics were computed as number, percentage, mean and standard deviation. Associations were assessed using logistic regression analysis with a P-value <0.05 considered statistically significant. Of all the participants, more than 60% had regularly participated in activities to prevent CCA following health officials advice. Age and health behavior to prevent CCA were factors associated with community participation for CCA (p<0.001). Both factors will be taken into consideration for community participation approaches for CCA prevention through participatory action research (PAR) in future studies.

The Republic of Korea (ROK) has had a successful experience in greening its land because of strong state policy and public participation. This paper aims to analyze the interest positions, participation, and accountability of multiple actors in the process of greening movements in the ROK. These movements were divided into two phases: forest rehabilitation (1973-1997) and urban greening (1998-2017). During the first phase, farmers caused deforestation by slash-and-burn farming and illegal logging, and governmental agencies acted as helpers controlled the farmers' deforestation activities. During the second phase, government agencies and enterprises caused deforestation with urban development projects, including construction of housings and roads. Multiple actors including citizens, NGOs, and enterprises helped urban greening through campaigns, donations, and monitoring. As a result, managing interest positions is significant to motivate multiple actors to participate in the greening movement. Participation with clear accountability is meaningful for successful greening. Therefore interest-based participation requiring accountability contributes to greening. This phenomenon indicates interconnection for interest positions, participation and accountability should be considered in designing greening policies.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the association between participation in physical activities (PA) and subjective well-being. Methods: We analyzed the data from Korean Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey, 2013 containing 36,655 and 35,780 for male and female students respectively. Study variables included PA, participation in physical education class, participation in team sports and subjective well-being. Control variables were school type, socio-economic status, level of parent education, living with parent, academic performance, delinquent behaviors, depression and perceived health. For this study, descriptive analysis, Chi-square test, and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed. Results: Among boys, after adjusting for control variables, PA (past 7 days 0 time reference group vs. over 4 times: OR 1.306), physical education class (past 7 days 0 time reference group vs. over 3 times: OR 1.140), and team sports (no team reference group vs. 2 team: OR 1.206) were associated with subjective well-being. Among girls, control variables were adjusted. PA (past 7 days 0 time reference group vs over 4 times: OR 1.244), physical education class (past 7 days 0 time reference group vs. over 3 times: OR 1.161), and team sports (no team reference group vs. 2 team: OR 1.181) were associated with subjective well-being. Conclusions: Participation in physical activities may help adolescent promote their life satisfaction. Thus, education experts should develop various exercise curriculums to encourage participation in physical activities.

This study is on capacity building and attitude to work of librarians in Edo State public libraries, Nigeria. Investigation was on the capacity building programs in the Edo State public libraries, the levels of librarians' awareness and participation in the programs, methods of building the capacity programs, influence on the librarians' attitudes to work and factors militating against the programs. Descriptive survey design was adopted for the study and the entire population of 23 librarians were used. Results indicate that the capacity building programs in the library include computer literacy skills, online public access catalogue (OPAC), Internet collection management and general trends in librarianship. The methods used in building the capacity programs in the library include conferences, workshops/seminars, on-the-job and internally organized courses. Respondents indicated very low level of participation in the programs and a negative influence of the programs on their attitudes to work. Various problems were identified as militating against the capacity building programs and solutions were suggested.

This paper examines theoretical trends and policy issues concerning science and public. The dominant perspective about it was changed from “popularization of science” to “public understanding of science (PUS)”. PUS pays attention to active roles of public in the understanding of science based on the contextual model. And recently various concepts are attempted to complement PUS such as “heterogeneous PUS”, “quantitative PUS”, “public understanding of research”, and “public participation in science”. PUS related activities in Korea can be analyzed using the concept of “science and technology culture system”. The characteristics of science and technology culture system in Korea can be summarized as follows: Its purpose is confined to support existing national innovation system; Its constituents have been unevenly and separately developed; Its material and institutional infrastructure is not sufficiently prepared; Its organizing mechanism is strongly influenced by government's execution power.

In Korea large scale land development projects have been initiated, in general, by public sector. Due to the on-going liberalization and deregulation trends, however, the need for the land development by private enterprizes is growing very fast. Nontheless, the present situation including institutional setting is not favorable enough for the private participation. The purpose of this study is to provide necessary strategies for vitalizing private participation in the land development. The main contents of this study are devided into four parts. First, the background logic of the private participation in land development is investigated theoretically through reference review. Second, the present situation especially in terms of institutional aspects in analysed and criticized. Third, similar experiences of foreign countries, such as Japan, Germany, France, England, are reviewed in short. Finally, some measures and strategies for improving the present institutional settings are provided and recommended. These include the simplification of the complicated planning system, alleviation of the restraints against private land development, diversification of land development methods and etc.
