Purpose: To evaluate the current status of utilization and implementation of health promotion programs for Korean middle-aged women in public health centers. Methods: Three-phase stratified sampling was done to select 1304 middle-aged women (aged 40-64 years) from all regions of Korea. The data were collected by face-to-face interviews using a structured questionnaire for individual responses and mailed surveys to 126 public health centers. Descriptive statistics and $x^2$-test were done for data analysis. Results: Only 12 of the 126 public health centers (9.9%) implemented health promotion programs for middle-aged women, with the lack of manpower being cited as the main reason for the absence of programs. From individual responses, 11.3% had participated in health promotion programs offered by public health centers. The main reasons for not participating were inconvenient times and lack of information. Significant differences were found in the frequency of participation in programs, exercise programs and diabetes management according to the size of region. The majority of the respondents cited the need for medical services, followed by programs focused on stroke prevention and leisure time management. The responses on the willingness to participate followed a similar pattern. Conclusion: There are gaps between the utilization of health promotion programs by middle-aged women and what is offered by public health centers. The results of this study support the need to develop more health promotion programs focusing specifically on the needs of middle-aged women.

우리나라에 공공도서관이 많이 없다. 그 이유는 국민들의 공공도서관에 대한 중요성 및 필요성에 대한 인식 부족과 중앙 및 지방정부의 도서관건립에 대한 인색한 투자와 함께 효과적인 공공도서관 건립정책이 없었기 때문이다. 이제 선진국과 같은 작은 도서관 건립 및 운영 정책을 펴야 한다. 지역 재개발 및 아파트 재건축 추진은 이들 지역에 작은 규모의 마을도서관을 건립할 수 있는 좋은 기회이다. 서울에 있는 J아파트는 재건축을 추진하고 있는데, 이 시점에서 새로운 위치로 옮겨가는 동사무소와 우체국을 하나의 건물로 신축하고, 이 건물 내에 공공도서관을 설치할 수 있을 것이다. 도서관을 이들 시설들과 함께 1층에 배치한다면 시너지 효과를 발생시켜 세 기관 모두에게 도움이 될 것이다. 이처럼 재개발 및 재건축 지역에 공공기관 혹은 상엽시설과 함께 복합건물 형태로 작은 도서관을 건립하는 것은 우리나라 공공도서관의 부족 문제를 해결 할 수 있는 좋은 방법이다.

One of the key success factors for the intelligent IT service which is characterized by personalization and automation, is to obtain relevant data from either sensors or data storage for reasoning, analyzing and forecasting. The availability of the open data sources such as public portal sites remarkably increases the efficiency and quality of the intelligent IT service. However, with the condition that not all data in the existing public or private sites are opened or have various types of openness, it prohibits the value of utilization. For these reasons, it is highly required to evaluate the extent of openness of data storage. However, there are only a few studies which explore the factors which affect the degree of data openness with respect to intelligent IT services. Hence, this study aims to propose an evaluation model including the indices to evaluate a process of opening data for the intelligent IT service from a viewpoint of data utilization process. The indices are applied to evaluate the actual multinational websites, which provide public data for verification. We also discuss the implications of the evaluation according to the results.

Purpose: This study explored the improvement and the direction of the smart disaster management system newly attempted in South Korea by analyzing the utilization of the existing system. This study focuses on making it easy to apply to user tasks and improving on site information. Research design, data and methodology: Problems were identified through field surveys with administrators in charge of administration and public institutions based on GIS based status board for NDMS which is widely used in Korea. Also, this study attempted to generalize to specialists in disaster management who are more likely to use the system in the future. Results: We derived improvement plans and verified the results through expert feedback. The results show that the GIS based status board for NDMS is cumbersome to use due to the vast array of unnecessary information compared to the high expected utilization. Conclusions: We found that improving the speed and accuracy of the smart disaster management information delivery system is necessary. Also, it is important to identify reasons for not improve the willingness to use this technology in disaster management and to figure out the process by which field personnel makes decisions that smart disaster information cannot be used for disaster management.

The purpose of this study is to examine the status quo of the networking between health promotion and other programs conducted by public health centers(PHCs), and to develop concrete strategies for improving the efficiency of the health promotion programs at PHCs. Data were collected from a questionnaire survey for 246 PHCs nationwide and 96 questionnaire were returned(response rate of 39%). A focus group study was also conducted to compliment the detail of the networking system between health promotion and other programs at PHCs. The results revealed that the current networking between health promotion and other programs conducted by public health centers is not working well. Especially, the communication networking between health promotion and other programs at planning stage is poorer than the stages of implementation, performance, and evaluation. The main reasons of the poor networking have been caused by an inadequate organizational structure, inefficient information system, low level of motivation for networking among the staff of PHCs, and no concrete guidelines for networking. This study also suggested several strategies to facilitate the cooperation between health promotion and other programs.

Though most of East European coutries seem to hold a pronatalist policy, they approve of family planning and provide contraceptive services. One of the most popular contraceptive method has traditionally been the coitus interruptus in these countries. One of the major reasons for adopting family planning is to decrease the incidence of induced abortion has been closely related to the popular use of coitus interruptus in these countries. Most of the East European countries liberalized induce abortion legally mainly to neutralize the wide practice of illegal abortion. However, the practice of induced abortion is under the strict control of the public health authorities in these countries. Migration and redistribution of population of population are mostly under the control of the state in these socialist countries. Policies on migration and redistribution are usually carried out to achieve the general goal of socio-economic development plan of the states. Both incentive measures and control measures are mobilized to affect the internal migration and redistribution of population. With respect to public health East European countries are characterized by the socialized medicine following the Soviet model. Public health measures and medical practice are controlled by the state and highly centralized in many countries except Yugoslavia. They place much emphasis on preventive medicine, primary health care, occupatinal and industrial medicine, and health education. Private sectors in medical practice do not exist in these countries of Eastern Europe.

많은 공공도서관은 다양한 이유를 근거로 음식물 반입을 제한(또는 금지)하고 있는데, 그것이 정당한지 아니면 부당한지를 논증할 필요가 있다. 이에 본 연구는 공공도서관을 이용하는 대구시민 485명을 대상으로 음식물 정책에 대한 인식을 조사하고 그 결과를 바탕으로 다양한 관점에서 개선방향을 제시하였다. 첫째, 사회 사조 측면에서 음식물 제한정책에 대한 전향적인 재검토가 필요하다. 둘째, 이용자 기본권 보장 차원에서는 이용자의 음식물 반입을 허용하는 것이 공공도서관의 존재가치와 사회적 역할을 정당화하고 생태계를 강화하는데 유리하다. 셋째, 장서 및 시설공간의 이용촉진 측면에서 음식물 허용에 따른 역기능보다 순기능을 강조하는 것이 바람직하다. 넷째, 자치조례나 도서관 규정에 모든 또는 대다수 음식물을 제한하는 전체주의적 사고는 지양되어야 한다. 마지막으로 공공도서관은 음식물 반입을 허용하되, 공간별로 섭취 가능한 종류를 규정하고 이용자에게 적극적으로 홍보할 필요가 있다.

이 글은 제주도 에멘 난민 수용에 대한 여론의 추이와 그에 따른 정치적 상황에 주목하면서 시작되었다. 제주도 난민 수용 반대 여론은 난민법의 수정 또는 폐지까지 요구한다. 에멘 난민 수용을 거부하는 입장은 치안과 안전, 문화 마찰, 경제적 이익이라는 측면에서 어느 정도 설득력을 가지지만 전향적인 사회가 견지해야 할 보편적인 가치, 진리적인 가치에는 반한다. 정치적 결정권자가 여론은 살피는 일은 자연스럽고 또한 중요한 일이다. 그러나 아무리 많은 다수의 의견이라 할지라도 정의롭지 않은 여론은 정치적 결정의 토대가 되어서는 안 된다. 본 논문은 그러한 이유와 근거로 여론의 형성과정과 관련 개념들의 그림자를 살펴볼 것이고, 반대로 공동체적 결정이 참고할 수 있는 가치로서 아우구스티누스의 '사랑' 개념과 원리를 검토하고자 한다. 갈등은 불안전과 균열을 초래한다. 공통감이 없으면 균열은 봉합되지 않는다. 본 논문은 이러한 갈등상태가 해소되어야 함을 과제로 삼고 아우구스티누스에게서 혜안을 얻고자 한다.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate public preferences regarding allocation principles for scarce medical resources in the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, particularly in comparison with the recommendations of ethicists. Methods: An online survey was conducted with a nationally representative sample of 1509 adults residing in Korea, from November 2 to 5, 2020. The degree of agreement with resource allocation principles in the context of the medical resource constraints precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic was examined. The results were then compared with ethicists' recommendations. We also examined whether the perceived severity of COVID-19 explained differences in individual preferences, and by doing so, whether perceived severity helps explain discrepancies between public preferences and ethicists' recommendations. Results: Overall, the public of Korea agreed strongly with the principles of "save the most lives," "Koreans first," and "sickest first," but less with "random selection," in contrast to the recommendations of ethicists. "Save the most lives" was given the highest priority by both the public and ethicists. Higher perceived severity of the pandemic was associated with a greater likelihood of agreeing with allocation principles based on utilitarianism, as well as those promoting and rewarding social usefulness, in line with the opinions of expert ethicists. Conclusions: The general public of Korea preferred rationing scarce medical resources in the COVID-19 pandemic predominantly based on utilitarianism, identity and prioritarianism, rather than egalitarianism. Further research is needed to explore the reasons for discrepancies between public preferences and ethicists' recommendations.
