최근 한국과 미국 법원에서는 조정제도를 자주 이용하고 있다. 조정제도를 이용함으로써 법원은 사건부담을 줄일 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 소송지연을 막고 비용을 절감할 수 있다. 그러나 조정제도의 장점을 극대화하기 위해서는 일반 조정제도의 기본원칙인 당사자 원칙을 최대한 반영하고 법원의 개입은 제한하여야 할 필요가 있다. 이점에 있어 미국과 한국의 법원내 조정제도에 비교해볼 때, 전자가 법원의 개입은 필요한 최소한에 그치고 조정인과 분쟁당사자간의 당사자자치를 최대한 보장하고 있음을 알 수 있다. 이 글은 한국과 미국의 법원내 조정제도를 비교 분석하여 효과적인 법원내 조정제도를 정착시키기 위하여 개선해야 한 점을 제시하고자한다. 한국과 미국의 법원내 조정제도의 근본적인 차이는 조정절차진행에서 법원의 역할과 관련되어 있다. 특히 미국법원은 분쟁 당사자들 스스로 분쟁해결을 할 수 있도록 돕는 역할에 주력하는 반면, 한국법원은 조정절차 전 과정에서 분쟁해결에 적극 개입한다. 보다 공정하고 효율적인 민사조정절차를 위해서는 관련법의 정비뿐만 아니라 조정인의 교육과 전문성을 강화하기 위한 제도적 장치를 마련할 필요가 있다.

우리나라는 1991년에 중앙환경분쟁조정위원회를, 일본은 1972년 공해등조정위원회를 설립하여 환경분쟁조정제도를 운영하고 있다. 두 나라의 제도는 법률적 체계가 유사하지만 운영해 오면서 그 나라의 특성에 맞게 발전하여 왔다. 이 글에서는 두 나라의 환경분쟁조정 제도의 내용 및 운영에 대하여 비교 검토해 보고자 한다. 일본과 관련된 내용은 일본의 공해등조정위원회 `99연차보고서를 주로 참고 하였다.

Criminal Mediation System in Korea, it did pilot operation by Crime Victim Support Centers such as Daejeon and other two District Prosecutors' Office in April 2006. And starting 2007, Crime Victim Support Centers and Criminal Mediation System conducted from 57 District Attorney's Office and Branch Offices and now 2016, Criminal Mediation System is operated in all the District Attorney's Office. On the other hand, the Attorney General's Office established the 'Criminal mediation practical operating instructions' in October 2009 and created its legal basis at "Crime Victims Protection Act" in September 2010. It seems that the criminal mediation have to operate as the direction for supporting crime victims recovery. However, it seems that the overall infrastructure of the criminal mediation system is built. But I have experienced this through G Attorney's Office as a Criminal mediator activity from 2007 to 2016 now, some issues have emerged such as weak on personal safety in criminal mediation room, etc. Thus, in this paper, I will examine the problems about this and propose improvements of criminal mediation system to fit the practical criminal mediation.

This study investigates the association between financial reporting strategy and the directors' and officers' liability insurance. Since D&O insurance protects officers and directors against the risks of shareholder litigation, it is possible that, because of moral hazard, managers will be more willing to participate in opportunistic financial reporting such as earnings manipulation when they are covered by a generous D&O insurance policy. This paper examines the association between D&O insurance and financial reporting, specifically whether the purchase of D&O insurance affects earnings manipulation. On the other side, the firms engage earnings management are willing to purchase D&O insurance, this study tests whether earnings manipulation affects D&O purchases using listed firms in Korean stock market from 2006 to 2008. This paper finds that firms with higher discretionary accruals are less likely to purchase D&O insurance implies that managers who are participating in earnings manipulation are not willing to purchase D&O insurance. The relation between discretionary accruals and D&O is significantly negative which indicate D&O insurance purchase does not trigger earnings manipulation rather it alleviates opportunistic reporting behavior.

Recently, the arbitration system for defect disputes has been introduced to settle the disputes arising from defects in apartment buildings. However, the conciliation system did not reflect the current technical issues of defect disputes and the opinions of each party involved in the disputes. Moreover, it revealed more imperfections in the content and the process of the system itself. Therefore, this study aims to review the technical aspects of defect disputes, and suggest an alternative to the conventional conciliation system. This paper also discusses logical factors that can be addressed for the current subjective judgment. It is recommended that each party involved in the defect dispute build mutual trust in order to meet social needs, which is the underlying support for the revitalization of the institutional level.

"Financial ADR" system in South Korea can be represented by so-called "Financial Dispute Resolution System", in which Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) and Financial Dispute Resolution Committee are the principal actors in operation of the system, and this is discussed as an "Administrative Financial ADR System". The system has over 10-year history since it was introduced in around 1999. Nonetheless, it was not until when financial consumer protection began to be highlighted after the 2008 financial crisis that Financial ADR system actually started to draw attention in Korea. This was because interest has been rising in "Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)" as an institutional measure to protect financial consumers damaged via financial transactions. However, the current discussion on the domestic Financial ADR system shows an aspect that it is confined to who is to be a principal actor for the operation of Financial ADR institution with main regards to reorganization of supervisory system. This article aims to embody these facts in an institutional model by recognizing them as a problem and analyzing the features of the Financial ADR system, thereby clarifying problems of the system and presenting the direction of improvement. The Korean Financial ADR system can be judged as "administrative model integrated model consensual model quasi-judicial model non-prepositive Internal Dispute Resolution (IDR) model". However, at the same time, it is confronted with a task to overcome the two problems; the system is not equipped with institutional basis for securing its validity in spite of the adopted quasi-judicial effect model; and a burden of operating an integrated ADR system is considerable. From this perspective, the article suggests improvement plans for security of validity in the current system and for expansion of industry-control ADR system, in particular, a system of prepositive IDR model. Amongst them, it suggests further plans for securing the validity of the system as follows; promotion to expand the number of internal persons and to differentiate mediation procedures and effect; a plan to keep a financial institution from filing a lawsuit before an agreement recommendation or a mediation proposal is advised; and a plan to grant suspension of extinctive prescription as well as that of procedures of the lawsuit.

This is to review the reform of the governance for science and technology advanced by the Noh Moo Hyun government. The reform mainly included introducing the vice premiership for science and technology, strengthening the coordinative function of the National Science and Technology Committee over the public R&D budget and programs, and establishing the Office of Science and Technology Innovation under the vice premier for science and technology. The reform aims to improve not only the policy coordinative mechanism but policy discourse mechanism over the enhanced science and technology policy. This paper argues that Noh Moo Hyun Government's reform of the governance for science and technology was not successful. The reason is that the reform targeted mainly to improve the policy coordination among government departments concerning science and technology policy. But it was nearly neglected to make effective the policy discourse mechanism linking the state actors and societal actors.

의료민사소송은 그동안 의료행위가 지니고 있는 전문성, 밀실성, 폐쇄성 등의 여러 가지의 특수성으로 인하여 소송이 장기화되고 경제적 비용이 상당하게 소모되었다. 또한 법원의 판결이 이루어지더라도 당사자들이 이를 신뢰하지 못하는 등의 이유로 신속성과 공정성에 문제점이 지적되었다. 이 때문에 소송 대체적 분쟁해결제도로서 의료사고 피해구제 및 의료분쟁 조정 등에 관한 법률상의 의료분쟁조정 및 중재 절차가 탄생하게 되었다. 그러나 의료분쟁조정법 제27조 제8항에서 피신청인이 14일 동안 의사를 표명하지 않는 경우 거부의사로 간주되고, 이 경우 한국의료분쟁조정중재원장이 각하결정을 하여야 한다고 규율함으로써, 조정의 개시 조차 순탄치 않은 것이 현실이다. 본고에서는 우리나라 의료분쟁의 최근 현황을 확인해 본 후, 의료분쟁조정법상 조정의 신청에 관한 조문인 제27조에 대한 입법안을 비교 점검한 후 다른 ADR 관련 법률이나 민사소송법상의 조문과 비교하여 불합리한 점이 있는지를 검토하고, 동조의 개선방안을 제시하고자 한다. 또한 2013. 4. 8.부터 시행이 되고 있는 불가항력적 산과 사고에 대한 무과실보상제도와 관련하여 동조가 미치는 영향 등에 대해서도 논의하고자 한다.
