제주도 발전 전략의 교호적 변화

Alternating Development Strategies in Jeiu Island, Korea

  • 발행 : 2008.06.30

초록

섬지역은 작은 규모와 고립된 특성으로 인해 취약한 경제기반으로 특징지워 진다. 여기에 오랜 고립에 따른 독특한 문화와 자연경관은 관광 중심의 개발로 이어지게 된다. 제주도도 세계 다른 섬지역과 마찬가지로 이러한 개발을 경험하는데, 이러한 지역변화는 섬지역의 취약성에 초점을 맞추어 대다수 중앙정부 주도로 이루어진 것으로 지역에서의 대응은 축소되어 이해되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 섬지역 주민들은 자신들의 취약성에 기초해 중앙정부의 정책을 수용하면서 자신들에게 유리하게 변용하는 교호적 전략을 구사해 왔다고 이해한다. 교호적 전략은 3가지 측면에 반영되고 있는데, 첫째 제주도는 국회의원 선거에서 무소속 후보를 선호해 오다 근래에는 여당 후보 그리고 야당 후보를 교대로 선출하는 모습을 보여준다. 둘째 중앙정부의 지역개발정책에 대한 반대운동을 통해 주민생활의 향상과 개선을 반영하는 수정을 요구하여 왔다. 셋째 중앙정부 주도의 개발정책이 효율성을 극대화하는 거점중심의 관광지 개발을 지역의 균형발전 요구로 대응하며 제주전역으로 개발을 확대시켰다. 이러한 개발 과정과 결과는 중앙정부의 관광개발 정책을 견제, 섬으로서의 제주지역의 취약함에서 찾아낸 교호적 전략의 결과로 볼 수 있을 것이다.

Islands are vulnerable to outer influences due to their small size and isolation. Tourism often becomes an important development focus because of their unique culture and nature. Jeju-do, as well as other islands, has experienced such development mostly led by central government, and the regional change was understood as the outcome of global influences without much concern with the local response or strategy. Thus, vulnerability has been the key theme in island development studies. This paper examines the current state of island development as an outcome of locals' alternating strategy in which the islanders accept the central government's plan, but express their demands to modify them. It is reflected in the electoral preference for ruling or oppositional parties, local movements against central government's development plans, and the spatial organization of tourism sites from a few growth centers to more dispersed, balanced development. These suggest that the current state of island development is not derived from unidirectional global forces, even if islands are peripheral. Rather, it is the outcome of an alternating strategy of Jeju locals accepting the central government development plans while managing them for local benefits.
