9.23 특별법 시행 이후 정부와 이해 당사자를 둘러싼 각계층에서 다양한 견해를 피력하면서 첨예한 논쟁이 오가고 있다. 그 가운데 성매매 여성들에 대한 에이즈, 성병 정기검진을 할 수 없게 된다면 성병과 에이즈가 창궐할 것이라는 '논리'가 그것이다. 이러한 주장의 현실성을 따져보기 위해서는 지금까지 시행되어온 '에이즈$\cdot$성병 정기검진'의 현황과, 그 성과에 대해 객관적으로 평가해 봐야 한다. 새로운 법령의 시행이 에이즈 예방 운동의 환경에 변화를 주고 있는 현 시점에서 성매매 여성을 대상으로 한 에이즈 예방사업의 새 모델 창출의 필요성이 대두되고 있다.

This research is to make the identity of the two models clear by reviewing the similarities and differences between Social Model of Disability from U.K. and Independent Living Model from United States. Research results are as follows. As for differences, Social Model of disability intended to change disability paradigm by focusing society itself as the cause of disability rather than individuals, however Independent Living Model stressed on the freedom and control through disabled people's life with self-advocacy group and personal assistants. As for similarities, there are self-representatives, social responsibility for disability, alienation of people with intellectual disabilities at the initial stage, background in legislating Disability Discrimination Acts in both countries. This result has its significances because it shows theoretical framework which make it possible to review further how disability practice and movements understand the two models regardless of their real contents and how the two affected the induction and proceeding of Korean Discrimination Act and Independent Living Paradigm in the Disability Welfare Act.

In this paper, I have attempted to show how the environmental controversy surrounding the Saemangeurn Reclamation Project in Korea has been framed as narrow scientific debates. First of all, science, or specifically the Expert Review Pane, has played dual roles in the controversy. On the one hand, it has contributed to illuminating the future environmental impacts of reclamation, by so doing, to providing a momentum to reconsider the project. This has significant meaning that environmental concerns successfully checked the symbolic national project of developmental era through adopting a joint-investigation scheme that guaranteed participation of environmental groups on an equal footing with the government. On the other hand, by limiting the scope and participants of discussion, it fundamentally blocked the possibilities of public debates and deliberative decision-making with full considerations of the political, social, and cultural aspects of the controversy. I have shown that this is due to the realist belief shared by both the developers and the environmentalists in Korea that 'proper' science would disclose the truth. Environmental groups, in particular, were naive in evaluating the role of scientific expertise in the controversy and neglected the political role of the Expert Review Pane as a ritual. In opposition to the realist argument, I have shown through the analysis of the water quality debates concerning the future fresh water lakes that scientific 'facts' were not discovered but constructed through complex negotiations, conflicts, and compromises among related actors. The framing of the controversy as an experts' debate has resulted in the exclusion of an important actor from the discussion. Little attention has been paid throughout the controversy to the very people who have lived in the Saemangeum area for generations and will lose their livelihood all together soon. About 20,000 fishermen are living on the Saemangeum tidal flats.

5.18 Gwangju Democratization Movement was approved as a legal democratization movement by president Kim Young Sam in May 1993 and was approved as a global recording inheritance by UNESCO in May 2011 for the honor of Gwangju citizens to be restored. However, assessment on this until today after 35 years of occurrence is not nationally unified and the mind of Gwangju maybe only remembered as pride by Gwangju. There are several factors of this continuing situation but this researcher thinks the biggest factor is that professionals reanalyzing the truth ascertainment fitting spirit of the times who are in charge of citizen education are intensively distributed in Jeolla-do and Seoul. Moreover, the journal unlikely assessing 5.18 have enemies in the assailant area during activity that unity is not taking place with divided assessments and trapped in Honam. This study judges that the reason the meaning of 5.18 is trapped in Honam and not nationally unified is because of the limit of "adversary system." Especially researchers who should analyze and explain this incident in a objective views are bias distributed (Gwangju Jeolla-do> Seoul>Gyeongnam) in hometown areas that the possibility of 5.18 meaning not being unified was focused. Academic research studies, journal writers, and publication locations are divided in this study to reveal they are bias distributed and reveal that there is possibility that this biased distribution of researches are becoming obstacles in overcoming regionality.

최근 오픈 사이언스 운동과 함께 정부 부처, 연구비 지원기관 등에서는 공적 기금으로 연구를 수행하는 경우 생성된 각종 연구 데이터를 관리하고 공개하도록 의무화하려는 움직임이 있다. 데이터에 DOI와 같은 식별자를 부여하여 데이터 리파지토리를 통해 출판하면 이해당사자들에게 많은 이익을 가져다 줄 수 있으며, 데이터의 인용을 활성화하기 위해 주제별 또는 기관별 리파지토리나 데이터센터에서 표준적인 인용 방법과 인용 요소들을 발표하고 있다. 앞으로 과학연구의 공개, 개방화가 더욱 추진되면 더욱 많은 연구데이터의 공유 활동이 일어날 것으로 예상되며 분야별 또는 유형별로 국제적인 데이터 리파지토리들이 출현하여 학술 논문의 근거가 되는 데이터 저장소로서의 역할을 수행할 것으로 생각된다.

Motivated by the open access movement, research institutions are building Institutional repositories for a nation-wide knowledge distribution infrastructure. IKIS (Institute Knowledge Inventory System) was proposed to integrate materials produced by government-sponsored 23 institutions of the economic, social and human fields, to contribute for policy-making in national agenda and to proffer services to a people. As IKIS project goes on. the project turns out to be slower than planned especially In terms of building up content and improving system functions. This study aims to investigate the methods for promoting the system in terms of management and system developments using multiple research methods such as surveys and interviews. Five issues including budgets and marketing are proposed for the management strategies, whereas three ones Including content and system performance improvements are suggested for the system development. The study results can be utilized as guidelines for managing university and school repositories as well as IKIS.

In contrary to the expectation of which it has a role to increase the transparency of and the responsibility of self-governing, the participatory budgeting even though aggravates perfunctoriness of participation and local conflicts in Korea. The problems are caused not from the institutional vices of participatory budgeting but from others which each part of people, participating in the budgeting process, have a misunderstanding on the participatory budgeting. Under the consideration that the misunderstandings of citizen and local officials are one of main reasons of a derailing of the participatory budgeting, the study aims to examine empirically the gap between the citizen's understanding on the participatory budgeting and the official's, focused on Daeduck-ku, Daejeon.

The World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) was held in two phases. The first phase took place in Geneva, December 2003, and the second phase took place in Tunis, November 2005. The objective of the WSIS was to establish the foundations for an Information Society for all, reflecting all the different interests at stake. In relation to, this article explore the vision and paradigm of WSIS. For this, this article review the historical context of International information order and International agreements, and examine the issues of WSIS. As a result, I recognize, It is valuable that the process of WSIS for Global governance was held among governments and other stakeholders, i.e. the private sector, civil society and international organization. In addition, developing countries's voice are deeply reflected on the WSIS. It is noticeable that ITU played key role as coordinator. However, we are anxious that WSIS's vision for Information society have a bias toward Technology determinism. Eventually, this article argue that WSIS discourse is the lack of any serious and critical structural analysis of the politico-economic context.
