Abstract

Using the multiple streams model, the agenda setting process of the community formation project as a countermeasure against local extinction was analyzed. Problem, policy, political flow of multiple streams model and policy entrepreneur concept were applied to the cases of Goseong-gun and Gokseong-gun. As a result of the analysis, the causes and problems of local extinction recognized by various stakeholders were identified, and in the process of gathering opinions, discourses on solutions such as job creation, securing convenience facilities, and strengthening community relations were formed to overcome problems. In the political stream, it was confirmed that policies supported by the government and the pledge of the county governor played an important role, and the impact of the policy entrepreneur's activities of the private research institute with successful experiences in a related project was examined. Lastly, as additional factors that caused differences in the process of the agenda setting for Goseong-gun and Gokseong-gun, the distance from site to nearby villages, and the experience of urban-to-rural migrants' activities were derived.
