This paper makes some contributions on optimal environmental taxes in the generalized utilitarian social welfare function. It is not to suggest as to appropriate environmental tax rates but to contribute the direction of environmental tax policy. The tax rates depend on parameters of individual utility function (CES utility function) and social welfare function and income tax rate. The major findings are that, as the elasticity of substitution between labor and leisure and the concavity of social welfare function increase, both the optimal tax rates and the government demogrants rise. And, as the parameter of environmental pollution in the individual utility function increases, the optimal tax rates also increase. For the future study, this model involves the income tax and the capital tax as endogenous variables and the wage changes due to international trade.

This study purposed to examine elderly welfare facilities by type, to analyze their local variations, and ultimately to contribute to the expansion of elderly welfare infrastructure. The results are expected to help inspect elderly welfare infrastructure for providing the aged with social services before the execution of 'the insurance for elderly long term care' and establish welfare facilities by area in the future. For these purposes, we used the national data "The Current State of Elderly Welfare Facilities in 2007" produced by the Ministry of Health and Welfare. We digitized elderly welfare facilities in 163 cities and counties by type and analyzed them by area. We also examined the differences in the local distribution of representative elderly welfare facilities such as elderly welfare centers, home based facilities (home helper centers), asylums for the aged and elderly care facilities in 16 cities and provinces. Furthermore, we analyzed differences and problems in their local distribution urban areas, mixed areas of urban and rural communities, and rural areas. In addition, we studied the current state of institutionalized care and home based care, which are two major directions of current elderly welfare policies, based on the local distribution of facilities and analyzed differences in the trends according to area. According to these results, the urban had more home based care facilities than the rural. However, the rural had more institutionalized care facilities than urban. Also, each local self-governing body showed unique characteristics. Therefore, these results suggest that we need to establish elderly welfare policies based on the distribution of facility types by area.

생산적 복지는 복지 수혜자를 단순한 지원의 대상에서 벗어나, 그들이 사회와 경제에 적극적으로 기여할 수 있는 구성원으로 발전할 수 있도록 돕는 복지 정책의 한 형태이다. 이는 교육, 직업 훈련, 취업 지원 서비스를 포함하여 개인의 자립능력을 향상시키고, 결국 사회 전체의 경제적 부담을 줄이며 경제 성장을 촉진하는 것을 목표로 한다. 본 연구는 대한민국에서 생산적 복지가 가능한지를 고찰함으로써, 사회적, 경제적 문제의 해결책으로서 생산적 복지의 역할과 중요성을 강조한다. 대한민국은 빠른 경제 성장과 함께 다양한 사회적 문제들을 경험해 왔다 고령화 사회로의 진입, 청년 실업률의 증가, 사회적 격차의 확대 등은 복잡하고 다양한 사회복지 요구를 낳았다. 이러한 상황에서 생산적 복지는 단순한 금전적 지원을 넘어서, 수혜자가 자립할 수 있는 기반을 마련해 주는 방안으로 주목받고 있다. 본 연구는 대한민국에서 생산적 복지의 구현 가능성을 고찰하고, 그 방안을 모색함으로써, 사회복지 정책의 새로운 지평을 제시하고자 한다.

본 연구는 사회복지 연구의 주요 경향을 비판적으로 고찰하면서 페미니스트 인식론과 사회복지 연구의 절합을 모색하고자 한다. 구체적으로는 "한국사회복지학"에 게재된 양적 질적 연구의 주요 경향과 여성에 관한 연구를 분석하고, 방법론 및 인식론적 쟁점을 논의하면서 페미니스트 인식론의 내용과 사회복지적 함의를 살펴보았다. 페미니스트 인식론으로부터 출발하는 연구는 실증주의적 전통에서 출발하는 객관성의 개념을 재고하고, 지식구축 과정에 작용하는 권력관계와 주체-타자와의 관계를 성찰하게 하여 연구자와 연구참여자와의 민주적이고 변증법적인 관계를 새롭게 정립시킨다는 점에서 사회복지 연구에 대안적 전망을 제시할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구자들은 페미니스트 인식론과의 조우가 억압받는 사람들의 삶으로부터 사고를 시작하는 사회복지(학)의 비판적 이론과 실천적 전망을 회복시켜 줄 것이라 기대한다.

본 연구는 저출산·고령사회에 따른 인구구조 변화에 능동적으로 대응하고, 노인복지에 대한 정책수립에 기여하도록 하기 위해 「노인복지법」에 대한 검토가 필요하다는 점을 전제로 하여, 「노인복지법」의 문제점을 찾아 이를 개선하는 방안을 제시하였다. 첫째, 「노인복지기본법」의 제정이다. 「노인복지법」 개선을 위한 제안으로서 노인복지법을 전면 개편하여 고령사회 노인복지에 관한 최상위법이자 기본법으로서의 지위를 부여하는 방안이다. 둘째, 노인 보건·복지 조치 및 노인복지시설 등에 관한 법률의 정비가 필요하다. 「노인복지법」을 재정비하여 노인의 보건복지 조치 및 노인복지 시설에 관한 법으로 그 법적 성격을 명확하게 개정하는 방안이다. 셋째, 「노인복지법」의 법률 체계를 재정비해야 한다. 현행 「노인복지법」에서 담고 있는 주요한 복지정책들의 내용을 그래도 유지하되 앞서 언급한 체계상의 문제점에 초점을 맞추어 개정하자는 방안이다. 결론적으로 현행 「노인복지법」은 제정 당시의 시대적 상황과 노인에 대한 기본적인 예우차원에서 이루어진 것으로, 저출산·고령사회에 대처하기에는 미흡한 점이 많다. 따라서, 본 연구는 인구구조의 변화에 따른 시대적 요청을 받아들일 수 있는 「노인복지법」의 개정 및 보완을 제시하는 바이다.

In this study, the nutrient intakes, dietary quality, and muscle strength of elderly women in a social-welfare center of a large city were compared with those of elderly women at home in a large city. Also, the relationships between muscle strength and nutrient intake status were investigated in both elderly group. The results of this study were as follows: The ages of elderly in the social welfare center and of elderly in general home residing elderly were 68.2 and 70.3 years, respectively. The average energy and nutrient intakes of both groups were lower than the Korean RDA. There were no differences between the groups in terms of macro-nutrient composition and quantity. The elderly in center showed significantly lower intakes of vitamin $B_2$, niacin and calcium than the home-residing elderly. The hand grip strength and back muscle strength were lower in the elderly of social welfare center, but a significant difference was found only in the left hand grip strength. The muscle strength, especially the left hand grip strength of those in social welfare center, showed significant correlations with various nutrient intakes. In contrast, generally no relationship between muscle strength and nutrients intakes status could be found in the home residing elderly. The variances in the mean hand grip strength and the left hand grip strength 19.0% and 18.6% respectively, were explained by their ages. This is in contrast to 22.3% and 32.4% of calorie intake and vegetable protein intake in the elderly of the social welfare center. In conclusion, the status of nutrient intake in those in the social welfare center seems to be low, and it is assumed that the low calorie and vegetable protein intake may contribute to the muscle strength decline in the socioeconomically high risk elderly.

Nutrition education is essential for the health of people with disabilities. This paper presents nutrition education topics and operational directions for people with disabilities living in social welfare facilities for people with disabilities. This study was conducted through one-on-one, in-depth interviews with 11 operators and workers at social welfare facilities where people with disabilities reside. They were asked about the current status of nutrition education at the social welfare facility for people with disabilities where the interviewee works, major diseases of residents, topics of nutrition education needed, and preferred education methods to determine the type of nutrition education for people with disabilities needed in the field. As a topic of nutrition education, dietary education for obesity prevention and management was most requested, and education on basic nutritional ingredients was also desired. It was mentioned that the educational level would be appropriate for children aged 6~9, and using materials that would attract interest was recommended. Activity-based face-to-face education was preferred for the operation of the program, and it was mentioned that education would be possible in a short period. In addition, it was mentioned that nutrition education is necessary for people with disabilities and workers at social welfare facilities for people with disabilities. Confirming the topic and operation direction of the nutrition education program required by social welfare facilities for people with disabilities will make it possible to contribute to providing nutrition education tailored to social welfare facilities for people with disabilities in Korea.

Objectives: This study investigated the need for nutrition education aimed at improving the health of residents and users of social welfare facilities for persons with disability and aimed to provide basic information for developing a nutrition education program that meets the needs of the field. Methods: Altogether, 249 employees working in social welfare facilities for people with disabilities were included in the study. Data on the health status of residents/users, meal management, nutritional education, nutritional education needs, and awareness of nutritional education were obtained through online surveys. A descriptive analysis was conducted to analyze the demographic characteristics, needs, and perceptions of the respondents, and independent t-tests and χ² tests were performed to analyze and compare the differences between residential and daycare facilities. Results: The majority of residents/users of social welfare facilities for persons with disabilities have developmental disabilities. When educating residents with residents/users of social welfare facilities, 'personal hygiene' was the most necessary topic, followed by 'obesity management' education. Regarding the methods of providing education, face-to-face lectures demonstrated a high demand. They responded that when nutrition education experts provide nutrition education to people with disabilities, they must understand 'the physical characteristics of persons with disabilities' and have the ability to determine appropriate nutrition for such people. The most appropriate nutrition program training would be twice a year, lasting 30 min to 1 h per training session. Conclusions: It will present a direction for operating a nutrition education program for persons with disabilities that meets their needs of social welfare facilities and ultimately contribute to the establishment and activation of nutrition education tailored to welfare facilities for such individuals in Korea.

Objective: The objective of this study is to explore factors that contribute toward improving the effectiveness of school-based smoking cessation programs for Korean adolescents. Methods: Thematic analysis was done on the feedback gathered from a focus group interview of 5 instructors with ample service experience at smoking cessation programs provided in school settings. Results: This study has identified 9 categories of initiatives that may contribute to improving the quality of existing programs. These nine categories were grouped into the following 4 themes. 1) Improvement in the structure of intervention: the programs should be restructured to allow more instruction time and better instruction environment; 2) Improvement in the content of intervention: the programs should develop differentiated contents considering the characteristics of adolescence; 3) Importance of rapport, adolescents' interests and compensation: the program should be more interesting to adolescents and provide rewards based on the rapport between instructors and adolescents; 4) Cooperation among smoking cessation instructor, school, and community: instructors, teachers at schools, and communities should cooperate actively with one another. Conclusions: The school-based smoking cessation programs will benefit from implementing the findings of this study in improving its effectiveness in smoking cession in adolescents.
