  • Construction is one of the most hazardous industries due to its unique nature. Recent occurrences of highly publicised and criticized construction site accidents have highlighted the immediate need for the construction industry to address safety hazards. Safety used to be addressed as an isolated issue in the past, but the problem of safety is an emergent property of a system. In general, it seems that both industrial practitioners and government officials have tended to address safety by focusing on technical aspects and looking for immediate causes of accidents after they have taken place. The objective of this paper is to examine issues and critical factors that affect the safety standards from a holistic point of view. The job of making worksites safe should not just fall squarely on the contractors but should be shared by all parties in the value chain of construction activities.

  • The present Korean laws related to anti-corruption are not effective in preventing corruptions[1]. In this context, the purpose of this study is to build the proactive anti-corruption operating system that has the function to prevent corruptions from occurring in the contract and procurement sector of Korean public construction projects. The proactive anticorruption operating system consists of four parts ; developing integrity performance manual(IPM), making integrity performance plan(IPP), practicing IPP, and integrity performance evaluation(IPE). By analyzing various kinds of audits and relevant laws and interviewing with government officials and staff in construction companies, the causes and stereotypes of corruptions and the concept, role, and guide of IPM, IPP, and IPE are provided in this paper.

미-중 무역 분쟁과 2018년 미국 주지사 선거: 주지사 선거는 국제경제 변화에 영향을 받는가? (U.S.-China Trade Dispute and 2018 US Midterm Elections: Does International Economic Environment Affect the Gubernatorial Election?)

  • Do international economic factors affect the result of gubernatorial elections? This research aims to explain the reasons that local elections are not influenced by international economic factors such as US-China trade dispute. Although previous studies show the mixed results about the relationship between economic factors and gubernatorial electoral outcome, this research argues at least three explanations can be identified. First, there is a perceived gap between the candidates and local voters on the effect of trade disputes. Local voters do not consider the trade dispute as immediate threats, and candidates only use the trade dispute for attacking rivals. Where the functional responsibilities are unclear among elected officials between federal and local government, voters tend to cast votes based on their party identification. In the case of trade policy, functional responsibility is murky between the president and governor; voters may not judge the governor incumbent or candidates on state economic condition.

  • In 2010, nearly thirteen hundred Buddhist monks from all over the world converged on to the small Indonesian resort town of Berastagi to celebrate the inauguration of the Taman AlamLumbini, a replica of Myanmar's most iconic Theravada Buddhist temple, the ShwedagonPaya. Nestled on Christian lands within a predominantly Muslim country, the building of the Taman AlamLumbini marked several years of negotiation amongst various religious communities, local government mediators, and patrons. This study makes a preliminary assessment of the ways in which cultural and historical discourses were used by participants to evoke a sense of transnational connectedness outside the realm of formal bilateral diplomacy. Through particular Buddhist ceremonies, rituals, and imagery, Myanmar sponsors and Indonesian patrons promoted a sense of broad pan-Asianism that linked monks, state officials, and local lay practitioners into a single community. A brief examination of the key speeches during the opening ceremony reveals that national interest and identity were still very much in play.

  • This paper aims to emphasize the necessity of beginning and developing judicial politics in Korea. Law is constitutive of politics, and judicial politics is vital in understanding how politics is influenced by law. Disappointingly, social science in Korea has not recognized the importance of judicial politics. Judicial branch in Korea does not have the capacity to constrain the executive or other government agencies governed by elected officials. The rule of law does not work. Judicial politics has not yet been introduced in Korea, despite its enormous importance in shaping political economy. The rule of law and courts are believed to be the institutional foundation for economic growth. Law embodied in "no one is above the law" is recognized to provide fairness and stability with a democracy. Little attention to judicial politics results in leaving behind a missing link in a polity. The fortification of the rule of law is necessary to make democracy consolidated in Korea, as shown in impeachment of former president Park Geunhae. A new scholarship in Korea on judicial politics is in need to discuss what conditions under which the rule of law is possible and how to make it sustainable.

  • 사회복지통합관리망은 정부에서 제공하는 다양한 복지급여 및 서비스를 통합적으로 제공 관리하기 위한 정보시스템으로서 사회복지 행정의 효율화에 기여하고, 나아가 사회복지 전달체계를 개선하기 위하여 구축되었다. 사회복지통합관리망은 복지행정업무를 담당하는 지자체 사회복지공무원의 업무량을 경감시키고 일하는 방식을 개선함으로써 전달체계 효율화 측면을 강조하였으며, 이에 따라 정보화 평가 또한 복지행정업무의 효율성측면과 예산, 인력 감축 규모를 통해 실질적인 효과를 찾아볼 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 사회복지통합관리망 구축 및 운영에 따른 경제적 측면, 공급자 측면 그리고 수요자 측면에서 정보시스템의 효과를 살펴보고, 이에 따른 사회복지통합관리망의 실질적인 성과를 제시하였다.

  • This study focuses on the staffs of the Governmental Organization of Construction who actually led this organization. Two main points of this study are as follows; 1) The composition and appointment of staffs, before and after the Korea-Japan Treaty in 1907, are evaluated, and 2) The working and academic career of each personnel are analyzed in connection with understanding of internal characteristics of this organization. Special attention is given to Korean personel and Japanese engineers who undertook a leading role. Korean engineering staffs were very few in number. It is thought, viewing their records of careers, that almost all of them didn't have any engineering basis, and simply they had some relations to Japan. It is certain that their role in this organization was interpreters using their Japanese language ability, and their roles were only limited to non-technical areas, if any. The early engineers from Japan were selected among the officials with comparatively rich careers of the Temporary Architectural Dept. or the Temporary Engineering Dept. of Custom House in Japan. But, in later days, the quality of Japanese engineers changed to the level of premature without practical experiences who unwillingly came to Korea to have a job under the depression of construction economy of Japan. The academic careers of Japanese engineers were various, from self-taught to regural college education, but the leading engineers were from Tokyo University. The civil engineers became high-level technical officials in the Government-General after the Japanese Annexation of Korea. But, sometimes later, many of the architectural engineers became practicing architect managing design offices on private basis.

  • 이 연구는 사회적으로 영향을 미치는 공무원의 음주운전에 대한 심각성을 인식하고 공무원의 음주운전을 예방하기 위한 목적을 가진 연구로서, 이 연구의 완성을 위하여 음주운전과 공무원범죄에 대한 관련 내용으로 이론적 배경을 구성하였고, 각 기관별로 산재되어 있는 공무원의 음주운전 실태를 취합하여 문제점을 살펴본 뒤 해결방안을 제시하였다. 음주운전은 술을 마신 상태에서 자동차 등을 운전하는 행위로서 이는 대형사고를 유발할 수 있어 적극적으로 대응하고자 노력하고 있고, 그 결과 경찰의 강력한 단속에 의하여 최근 감소하는 모습을 보이고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 따라 공무원의 음주운전도 감소하는 모습을 보이고 있으나, 잘못된 회식문화 대리운전에 대한 불신 음주운전에 대한 잘못된 인식 등으로 인하여 여전히 발생하고 있다. 공무원의 음주운전은 일반인의 음주운전보다 사회적 해악이 더 크고 조직의 기강 및 위신에도 부정적인 영향을 미친다. 따라서, 이 연구에서는 공무원의 음주운전의 대응방안으로 강력한 처벌 및 해당 기관의 음주운전 예방을 위한 각종 제도 등을 제안하였다.

  • Recently, China has brought many political, economical, and ideological changes in order to complete the "socialistic market economy." In terms of legal system, they make much effort to seek compatibility and stability of law and order. China recognizes that the breakdown of corruption, which is rampant in society, is an essential short-cut for national development. To realize anti-corruption reformation, it strengthens the supervision of relatives and close officials of high-ranking government officials. Recently, China has suffered from expanded trade disputes internationally and has also experienced severe management-labor conflicts domestically due to economic recession. From 2012 onward, civil lawsuit and other litigations have increased sharply. Also, they face severe conflicts in the land system. It is expected that many disputes arise due to speculation on rural housing. Meanwhile, Mongolia expands the size of trade with Korea in mutual cooperation since their diplomatic relation in 1990 by entering more than 20 treaties and agreements. As Mongolia has rich natural resources and Korea is equipped with advanced science and technology, the two countries have opportunities to develop mutually beneficial cooperative relations. Recently, the arbitration system has attracted attention instead of litigation as a means of dispute settlement in line with the expansion of trade between Korea and Mongolia. This study would be helpful to figure out desirable methods for dispute settlements in case of trade disputes among Korean companies that would advance into China and Mongolia.
