This study attempted to explore how middle aged married men and women prospected a Centenarian society and what implications their prospect cast for family policy. We conducted focus group interviews with five groups in order to identify their subjective prospects on marital relations, parent-child relations, caregiving from family or institutions, and alternative living arrangement. From those interviews, we found that married men and women in their 40s, 50s, and 60s possessed ambivalent attitudes toward their marital relationship, either acknowledging an importance of marital relationship or accepting long-standing disrespectful marital relationship. They also had a dualistic perspective on parent-child relationship, accepting parental responsibility for children and even grand-children but maintaining low expectations for children. What they needed was age appropriate opportunities for work or leisure and better community services and facilities. These results showed that the middle-aged was concerned experiencing unprecedented family situations. They needed family life education and services in order to adapt to the Centenarian society. Since family policy has viewed this age group out of service target, programs and services have been underdeveloped for this group. Expecting a Centenarian society however, we need to expand the boundary of family policy and take a new perspective. We need to develop and implement marital education programs, community-based self-care services, and age-appropriated opportunities for work, leisure, and social relations.

The goal of this study is to try to grasp the general feature, familism, and social support network of the separated family who came south over the border, on them who are residing inland, as a part of the work to clarify the diverse form and specialty that Korean family have. To summarize the result simply is as follows: 1. The difference is showing, between separated family and non-separated family, in the family preference and the consciousness to respect parents, among the range of familism. That is, in case of the separated family, family preference and the consciousness to respect parents showed higher, in comparison with the non-separated family. 2. Between separated family and non-separated family, the difference showed only in the support network of relative. So, the support network of relative of non-separated family showed higher than that of separated family. Through above conclusion, the situation which is the losing native place and the separated which occurred due to war and the dividing into sections is influencing our family life. But, on the other hand, it can be seen that the influence is becoming void gradually.

This study observed and investigated the commute time of dual-earner couples from a family developmental perspective. It tested whether the household responsibility hypothesis was effective in explaining the gender gap in the commute time for these couples. I extracted 2,103 time diaries written by 1,266 matched couples from the 2014 Korean Time Use Survey data for this study. The sample was categorized by the age of the eldest child into four age groups of 0-6, 7-12, 13-18, and 19-29. Analytic results from ANOVA, Scheffé test, and OLS regression are as follows. First, husbands traveled longer hours to work than wives in all age groups, while the commute time of couples tended to increase along with the child' age. However, couples in the child group aged 7 to 12 had the shortest commute time. Second, domestic labor time of wives were negatively associated with the commute time, which appeared to support the household responsibility hypothesis. Third, in the child group aged 7 to 12, wives spent more time for work commute as their income increased; however, wives with traditional gender role attitudes had a shorter commute time in the child group aged 0 to 6. Forth, neither the wives' nor husbands' work characteristics were related to the wives' commute time; however, both wives' and husbands' work characteristics were related to the husbands' commute time. The findings suggest the possibility of spatial entrapment by working wives throughout the family life cycle due to household responsibilities, which provides implications for policy intervention in consideration of the gender gap in commute time for dual-earner couples.

The purpose of this study is both to describe and to explain the shapes and the changes of Kwangju women's productive activities from the middle of 1950's to the end of 1990's. Productive activities in this study include wage labors as well as economic activities in informal labor sector and domestic labor. Three factors - economic structure, the family, and women's consciousness - are drawn to explain women's work in Kwangju. The period from the middle of 1950's to the end of 1990's has been divided into 5 stages and the characteristics of women's work at each stage are as follows : Kwangju women during 1950's worked hard and contributed to the family economy not only inside but also outside the family : during the second stage from 1960's to 1970's, they accomplished not only the traditional women's role but also industrial wage worker : the third period of the first half of 1980's was the time for the development of social consciousness : the fourth period from the end of 1980's to the beginning of 1990's was the time when women tried to solve their problems by themselves: during the last period from the middle of 1990's to the end of 1990's.

본 연구는 한국보건사회연구원의 "2009년도 전국 결혼 및 출산 동향 조사" 패널자료를 활용하여 20~44세에 이르는 2,678명의 미혼 남녀(남 1,425명, 여 1,253명)가 생각하는 이상적인 일 가정 양립 방안, 성역할 태도 및 저출산 원인에 대한 견해 등을 성별 및 교육정도에 따라 알아보고 이들 사이의 관계를 탐색적으로 분석해 보았다. 이를 통해 향후 저출산 문제 해결을 위해 미혼 남녀들의 일 가정 양립을 어떻게 지원할 것이며, 이 과정에서 미혼 남녀의 성역할 태도가 어떻게 변화되어야 할 것인가를 유추해 보고자 했다. 연구결과를 정리하면, 첫째, 이상적인 일 가정 양립 방안은 미혼자의 성별에 따라 차이가 없었으나 교육정도에 따라서는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 드러났다. 둘째, 이상적인 일 가정 양립방안과 부부 성역할 태도 및 성별 간 관계에 있어서는 여성에 비해 남성이 '남성은 직장, 여성은 가사'를 더 찬성했으며, 전일제일 보다 시간제 일을 선호하는 미혼자들이 '남성은 직장, 여성은 가사' 방안에 대한 찬성이 높았다. '남편의 자녀 돌봄 능력'에 대해서는 여성이 남성보다 그리고 2자녀를 두고 전일제로 일하겠다는 미혼자가 1자녀를 두고 전일제로 일하겠다는 미혼자에 비해 높은 평가를 보였다. 셋째, 두 자녀 이상을 두고 전일제로 일하고자 하는 미혼 남녀가 저출산 문제를 가장 심각하게 받아들이고 있었다. 넷째, 저출산 이유로 가장 높은 동의를 보인 것은 '양육비와 교육비용'이었으며 다음으로 '주택마련의 어려움'과 '취업여성의 증가'였다. "취업여성의 증가"를 저출산의 원인으로 여기는 정도는 남성보다 여성이 높게 나타났으며, 무자녀로 전일제 일하는 것을 원하는 미혼자들에게서 이러한 성향이 두드러지게 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과를 통해 일 가정 양립방안과 성역할 태도에 대한 기본적인 이해를 높일 뿐만 아니라 저출산 문제에 대한 정책적 개입방향을 제시하고자 하였다.

이 연구는 노동권 부모권 관점의 일-가족양립정책을 통해서 여성이 노동자로서 어떻게 복지국가에 통합되어 가는지를 살펴보기 위함이었다. 일-가족양립정책의 노동권과 부모권이 국가차원에서 어떻게 구성되는지는, 돌봄을 둘러싼 젠더체계를 중심으로 돌봄의 사회화방식(탈가족화 탈상품화 가족화 상품화전략)을 통해서 살펴보았다. 실제로 영국과 스웨덴은 돌봄의 젠더체계를 기본으로 돌봄의 책임주체가 다르게 상정되면서, 돌봄의 사회화도 다른 성격으로 발전하였고, 이것이 여성과 남성의 노동권과 부모권에 주는 함의도 다른 결과를 가져온다는 것을 보여주었다. 특히 그 사회에서 여성을 노동자로 보는가, 혹은 돌봄자(carer)로 보는가는 돌봄의 사회화가 어떻게 발전되는가에 있어 중요한 출발점이었다. 돌봄이 사적문제로 한정되는 영국은 당연히 일과 가족의 양립문제는 개인과 시장이 풀어야 할 문제로 가치가 축소되었다. 스웨덴 사례는 돌봄의 사회적 가치가 합의된 상태에서 탈상품화를 통한 남성의 가족화와 탈가족화를 동반한 여성의 상품화 전략만이 실질적인 노동권과 부모권을 획득하는 수단이 될 수 있음을 보여주고 있다.

Geun Hyung Park is one of the playwrights who consistently pursues his unique world of play. One of the characteristics that is constantly discovered in Park's plays is the motif of 'family.' Park chooses family as the motif in most of his work. Park particularly emphasizes 'family life' rather than 'individual life' to focus on the internal problems of families. Therefore, the motif of family in Park's plays takes a very important position in the content and theme. The Korean society imposes unique value on families and possesses a strictly obstinate family ideology. Park observes distorted family relations or individuals who cannot be happy within their families to identify the problems related to the family ideology that is deeply rooted in the Korean society. This is one of the important backgrounds for which Park is constantly dealing with 'family life.' This study selected five of Park's most famous plays to specifically examine Park's critical understanding of family ideology. First, his criticizes extreme family egoism by depicting a family that cannibalizes people to keep the family full. Park chooses 'absurd time and space' and the extreme subject of 'human flesh' to warn his audiences about the awful consequences of family egoism. His , which is the only piece that deals with family history among the five pieces selected, criticizes Korea's unique family-centered ideology by humorously depicting the history of the Cho family that is all about maintaining and worshipping the its clan. He reveals the unethical and hypocritical attitudes of the Cho family for the audiences to reconsider the family-centered ideology of the Korean society. In , he talks about the son and the father who lose his ethical authority and fail to perform his paternal responsibilities to criticize the traditional family ideology of patriarchism and suggests the pessimistic future of patriarchism. contrasts a blood-related family with an irresponsible father and a quasi-family to criticize the identity of blood-related families. In , Park depicts a 'smelly house' of a family in agonizing relations to deny the family myth and the maternal myth. He clearly shows how the ideals of family myth and maternal myth are distant from the reality. In result of this study, Park's criticism of family ideology appears in various forms. He comprehensively criticizes both the general family problems and the unique family issues of Korea. The family ideology of Korea is currently undergoing a radical change. It has been long since the traditional family ideologies have exposed problems to show the signs of crisis. Also, there have emerged various forms of families, including single-parent families, one-person families, adoption families, and multi-cultural families. In this respect, Park's critical understanding of family ideologies allows you to see the obvious family forms from a new perspective and greatly contributes to awakening the essential questions about families. Park's work is noticeable among the various artistic and literature pieces that deal with family issues because of his extraordinary skills to capture the key issues inherent in the problems of family ideologies.
