It is the so-called Shinchon Severance Hospital Case brought to an end by the decision of the Supreme Court that opened the real discourse of withholding or withdrawing of LST (Life-Sustaining Treatment) in the legal profession as well as medical profession in Korea. Everyone has sympathy with the validity and necessity of legal regulation on withdrawing-including withholding-of LST save the requirements & procedure of withdrawing of LST. In this situation, the legislative bill of amendment to the Korean Civil Law introducing of adult guardianship was pre-announced by the Ministry of Justice on September 18th 2009. The adult guardianship is a guardianship system that supports an mentally handicapped adult to deal with his affairs by support of a guardian. The object of adult guardianship includes affairs of body or well-being as well as property of adult wards. In particular, affairs of medical matters are of importance in the duty and authority of adult guardians. So, the introduction of adult guardianship is of much importance de lege lata as well as de lege ferena in the discussion of withdrawing of LST as a medical treatment. Since the legislation on withdrawing of LST intents to protect the right of death with dignity on the basis of patients' autonomy, the ratio legis of withdrawing of LST is variant from that of adult guardianship. In this context, it seems reasonable to legislate the withdrawing of LST separately from the adultguardianship. In the meantime, the adult guardianship of the legislative bill of amendment to the Korean Civil Law is related to the withdrawing of LST, since the main purpose of adult guardianship is to protect patients' quality of lives and to regulate guardianship contracts based on patients' autonomy. In that context, it seems reasonable to incorporate the legislation of withdrawing of LST into the adult guardianship system. In the latter case, it is not easy to adopt the withdrawing of LST into the legislative bill of the Korean Civil Law for the bill is pre-announced already as previously stated. However, the legislation of withdrawing of LST is not inferior to the legislation of adult guardianship as a matter of urgency. Moreover, it is likely that the legislative bill of Amendment to the Korean Civil Law generates discrepancies in interpretation of the requirements & procedure of withdrawing of LST as the amended German Civil Law did. In short, it is desirable for the legislator to revise the legislative bill despite delay.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to reflect upon the process of the legislation of the National Medical Services Law for traditional Korean medicine practitioners (TKM practitioners), especially at the Assembly plenary session of 1951. Methods: Various primary sources related to the legislation were examined, especially those in National Assembly Records and newspapers. Results: In 1950, the National Assembly wanted to establish the National Medical Services Law (國民醫療法) replacing the colonial medical services law (朝鮮醫療令), but it ended in failure. So in 1951, the National Assembly tried again. First, legislator Han Gukwon (韓國源), with 83 other legislators, introduced a bill for the new national health care system. The Society and Health (社會保健委員會) and the Legislation and Judiciary subcommittees (法制司法委員會) deliberated on this bill, and each proposed an amendment to the National Assembly. In the process of careful deliberation of these three proposals, the Ministry of Health and legislator Kim Ikgi (金翼基) each came up with a further amendment. Ultimately, Kim Ikgi's amendment was accepted by the National Assembly. According to his proposal, TKM practitioners were titled 'Hanuisa (漢醫師)', and the medical office name of TKM practitioners became 'Hanuiwon (漢醫院)'. Conclusions: The National Medical Services Law passed in 1951 was the beginning of the unique dual national medical license system of Korea. It recognized Western medicine and TKM practitioners equally under the national license system.

본 연구는 지방교육자치에 관한 법률 전부개정법률안(대안)에 대한 국회의 표결에 있어 국회의원에 영향을 미친 요인은 무엇인지 알아보는 것을 목적으로 한다. 지방교육자치에 관한 법률 전부개정법률안(대안)이 관심을 끄는 것은 교육감과 교육위원에 대한 직접 선거 및 교육위원회 시·도의회 상임위원회 전환 등을 주요 내용으로 하고 있기 때문이다. 또한 이 법안은 위원회 이름으로 발의된 법안이며 특정 정당 및 지역의 반대가 있었던 법안이 아님에도 이에 대한 수정안이 제출되었고, 국회에서 통과된 다른 법안과 달리 반대표가 상대적으로 많았기 때문이다. 이러한 이유로 의원들의 투표는 무엇에 영향을 받았는지 분석을 시도하였다. 투표행태 분석을 통해 법안의 통과에 있어 중요한 것은 교섭단체 간 합의며, 특히 국회 다수당의 선택이 매우 중요하다는 점을 알 수 있었다. 또한 분석을 통해 의정경험이 많은 의원과 비례대표 의원들은 교섭단체 간 합의된 법안에 좀 더 순응하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구는 전자투표제 실시 이후 학자들의 관심을 끌고 있는 의원들의 투표행태를 좀 더 구체적으로 이해할 수 있는 기회를 제공했다는 점에 의미가 있다고 하겠다.

제4차 산업혁명 시대가 진전되어 정보통신기술이 획기적으로 발전하면서 사이버위협은 점점 더 지능적이고 고도화될 것이다. 그렇기 때문에 그 위협에 대한 대비책을 마련하면서 사고가 발생할 경우에도 체계적이고 신속한 조치를 취하기 위해서는 정보기관의 역할이 중요하다고 할 것이다. 그러나 우리나라는 이와 관련된 '국가사이버안보법안' 제정이나 "국가정보원법" 개정에 대한 논의가 지지부진하여 사이버위협을 대응하는데 어려움이 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 현행 법 체계상 정보기관의 사이버안보 기능, 최근의 법 제 개정 논의 동향과 우리 실정에 맞는 정보기관의 역할에 대한 시사점을 살펴본 후 향후 사이버안보 수행체계 보강을 위한 정보기관의 역할 정립 방안으로 사이버안보에 관한 첩보수집 분석 집중, 사이버위협 예측 대응역량 제고, 법과 원칙 준수를 위한 법적 토대 구축 등을 제시하고자 한다.

In construction management the estimation procedure of construction expanses follows a series of submission phases: production of drawings, the assessment report, and the expanse report. In South Korea, it is a widely known issue that the expanse report only includes the net expanses at each construction phase and part, which makes it difficult to trace detailed basis from the records. This issue with inefficient record management should pose a number of problems, which result from discontinuation of construction record, unproductiveness for reproduction of records at each construction and submission phases for construction management, and failure to perform fair management among the contracting parties. Thus, the amendment in which the assessment report and the quantity estimation report reflect common codes to share throughout types of construction, space, and parts should be applied into practices so as to model production of acceptable reports and record.

Third-party funding in international and domestic disputes is a fast-growing trend and it is increasingly used by large, solvent companies that simply wish to share risk in their finance. On January 10, 2017, the Civil Law Amendment Bill was passed in Singapore and on June 2017 an "Arbitration and Mediation Legislation (Third Party Funding) Bill" in Hong-Kong had a third-party funding to finance the international arbitration and other dispute resolutions expressly approved. This arbitral tribunal's expanding discretion over critical interim measure of security cost was in issue. In Essar v. Norscot (2016), the arbitrator found that the additional third-party funding costs were recoverable as "other costs of the parties." In here, the decision showed the issue of a tribunal's power over cost measures could spread out to be reviewed and broadened through the legislative process. A recent investor-state arbitration case of ICSID, RSM Production Corporation v. Saint Lucia, covered the express awarding of security for costs where a claimant was funded by a third-party funder. It seems inevitable that the volume of third-party funding industry will grow more as time goes on. The next step would be to formulate guidelines on how to determine criteria against which an application for security for costs is measured.
