  • Developed countries have been taking their private security industry to the next advanced level to maintain safety of society, promote cooperative security in conjunction with public security such as the police, cultivate domestic security industry, and spur economic growth. In Korea, Service Security Business Act(currently, Security Business Act) enacted in 1976 laid groundwork for rapid institutional development. Nonetheless, the need to rename current title of Security Business Act has been discussed continuously among scholars and industry. Particularly, a bill(bill no.: 2389) was proposed in 2012 to rename 'Security Business Act' completely to 'Private Security Industry Act'. Under those circumstances, this study was intended to discuss proposals that had been made to rename the Act for underpinning development of security industry, along with its amendment, by gathering opinions from scholars in the field of security. It is undeniable that there is need for renaming the Act. As the renaming of the Act can have positive impact in many aspects for promotion of security industry, the urgency to rename the Act is indisputable. The results suggested that scholars specializing in security hoped the Security Business Act to be renamed primarily to Guard and Security Industry, and if not, to be renamed to Security Industry Act. The renaming of the Act will give rise to the need to amend many parts of provisions contained therein as follow-up action.

  • In 2005, there was a partial revision of the Act on the Promotion of Education for the Handicapped people, so that students with health impairments would be able to receive special education support. Since the amendment of the bill, to support them classified into weak people in education, education support systems have been proposed and settled so that they may receive the support for free. According to the pre-study, after the amendment of this bill, there has been many studies on the form of educational service to support them, and recently, there have been a lot of researches to investigate their satisfaction with the current services and draw its problems. And yet these studies have been carried out by the preceeding researchers at the drawing of problems, but have a limitation to present fundamental countermeasures to the problems. Therefore, this study attempted to understand the meaning of health impairment through the pre-study and investigate the forms of the services currently supporting them and analyze the problem of each service. In addition, to solve the identified problems, a new support system was proposed. In order to confirm the performance of the system, we design the user satisfaction survey composed of a Likert 5-point scale per each question, and to make the task, comparing stories and clapping for increasing quality of their subjective evaluation about the image and voice transmission when the user uses it. As a result, in the overall evaluation of the robot system, the average score of each question was recorded to 4.31 points, and through the two tasks, it was found that there were effective data transmission of image and voice.

  • It is different from other countries, they limit the possibility of long-distance travel of infectious waste by principles around treatment and recommend to use various techniques. Medical waste generated from the health medical institutions requires more thorough management because it causes potential danger to anybody exposed and also greatly harmful to natural ecosystems. The amendment bill of Wastes Control Act points out growing risk while consigning to remote waste treatment facilities because of the low processing cost and propose area-division as a solution. This study based on literature reviews, comparison of foreign countries and Korean acts. It requires area-division strategies as a suitable alternative considering the domestic situation.

  • Space Treaty Article 2 stipuates non-appropriation by sovereignty, and in any other means. Interpretative controversies has continued as regards the meaning of any other means. It is not clear whether appropriation by private entity is also prohibited or not. Furthermore, the controverse around the binding force of Article 1 has made worse the controversy regarding such appropriation. U.S. Congress has enacted the law regarding the space resouce mining in 2015. Its main purpose is to alleviate legal unstability which U.S, private companies have faced, and it provides some provisions regarding private rights about space resources. Original bill, H.R. 1508 included the property right. Amendment to the bill is to ensure that an "asteroid resource utilization activity" is inter-preted as on a single asteroid and not on any asteroid. The use of the word "in situ" in defining space resources simply means resources in place in outer space; but any such resource within or on an asteroid would need to be "obtained" in order to confer a property right. The use of the word "in situ" in merely defining a space resource in the bill is not equivalent to claiming sovereignty or control over celestial bodies or portions of space. Further, there is clear Congressional direction in the bill that the President is only to encourage space resources exploration and utilization, including lowering barriers to such activity, "consistent with" and "in accordance with" US international obligations. Federal courts are granted original jurisdiction over entities defined in ${\S}$ 51301(4) and in-situ asteroid resources that have been removed from an asteroid by such entities. Federal courts are not granted jurisdiction over outer space, the Moon, other celestial bodies, or the asteroid from which the in-situ natural resource was removed. It is said that the Space Resource Utilization Exploration Act of 2015, talked about the rights of private players to own-kind of a "finders keepers" law.

  • This study analyzes the present public construction ordering system focussing on the legal framework for the fire facilities construction business and investigates the problem of subcontracting, and further reviews why Separate Prime Contracting should be recommended in policy, social, legislative and regulative terms. This study suggests the amendment of Fire Facilities Construction Business Act, with new bill drafting. The result of this study shows the present public construction ordering system has huge disparities between main building construction business and fire facilities construction business, and recommend Separate Prime Contracting should be adopted in the fields of fire facilities construction business. The system of Separate Prime Contracting may secure business entities' responsibility and higher quality of fire facilities, and also result in reasonable construction practices in reasonable costs. This system may also contribute to improve public safety level in fire facilities construction.

  • With the proposal of amendments to the Pedestrian Safety Act in 2021, when the amendment bill is passed in the near future, a general dimensional investigation of the sidewalks' physical condition, which is the basis of pedestrian safety, is expected to be legislated and made mandatory. Therefore, this study presented a affordable methodology for street environment survey using entry-level drones and examined the feasibility of conducting a complete survey of pedestrian paths by local governments nationwide. To this end, various street facilities in the experimental site were measured to compare and analyze the accuracy of the point cloud data. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the measurement error range satisfies the public surveying guidelines. If the methodology presented in this study is applied, it is expected that individual local governments will be able to make a significant contribution to monitoring the physical conditions of streets to improve the pedestrian environment in the near future.

  • The meaning of the amendment to the Media Arbitration Act in our society is not limited to media companies. And it's not just a problem for a specific group. It expresses public value because it is an issue that can affect members of society as a whole and furthermore, it becomes a bill that can infringe or strengthen individual freedom guaranteed by the Constitution, but makes different arguments. Freedom of speech is not achieved in a day and should not be easily lost by someone. Although it is not a frequent problem, fatal threats arising from wrong media reports take away an individual's present and future. It is because of this problem that the responsibility is important. Freedom of speech and control are heading in different directions, but they are the same as the front and back of the coin. The freedom pursued is different, but it consists of one body. If freedom and responsibility of speech made up of one body criticize or ignore each other, the results are scattered into a distorted On the other hand, the flexion of responsibility without freedom serves as a speaker that conveys the ideology of some classes or represents the interests of a particular group. The fact that the media should act as the air of society means that it should represent the interests of the majority, make them aware of the rights of unfair or marginalized members, and be their strength.

  • The Assembly plenary session on December 3, 2017 passed a Product Liability Amendment bill that introduced clauses concerning consumer burden of proof and punitive damage reimbursement. More specifically, these newly approved provisions will reduce the burden of proof placed on consumers and levy triple punitive damage on suppliers. Significant increases in the number of product-liability lawsuit and the number of related insurance contracts are expected. Since military aircraft are designed for operational purpose(seeking greater combat effectiveness over greater safety) and used in high-risk environment, it is practically impossible to obtain an affordable product-liability insurance, Without having any backup plan, military aircraft manufacturers directly face all sort of liability risks under Product Liability Act, Warrant Liability Act and Non-Performance of Contract Act. The U.S. experienced similar problems when they first implemented their product-liability law in 1970s. There had been a big dispute among legal practitioner, insurance professionals and scholars concerning military aircraft manufacturer's liability. In order to settle the issue, the U.S. Supreme Court has established a new precedent of Government Contractor Defense(GCD). The U.S. government also included an indemnity clause for military aircraft manufacturers in their FMS Contract with the Korean government. Likewise, Korean military aircraft manufacturers should 1) clearly understand their current position that they cannot afford expensive product-liability insurance and the cost is not accounted in the military procurement calculation, 2) estimate potential liability risks with the ongoing overseas export expansion in mind, 3) set up appropriate risk management measures through regulatory reform and policy development.

  • The purpose of this study is to grasp the overall policy decision system of sex crime prevention policy and analyze the interaction and pattern of actors in policy formation process. This is a useful way to identify the causes and ways to improve the policy if the sex crime prevention policy fails. As a research method, we used a model of advocacy through case analysis and language network analysis. In the external environment, low reporting of sex offenses, technical improvement and supplement for preventive management, consciousness of victims of sexual crimes, amendment of legislation, and support of the president. The conflicts between the advocacy coalition opposed the strong regulation, the prevention of recidivism, the expansion of the range of objects to be worn, the temporary effect of the system and the retrospective of the bill. As a problem-solving strategy, it was confirmed that the opposing positions of pros and cons of lack of manpower and negligence of management through the extension of the system were acutely opposed. In the context of media reports, this tendency is more likely to be understood as the concern of prevention and management at the central government level to prevent sex crimes. Therefore, although the methods of prevention of sex crimes have been insufficient in the past, it is hoped that this study will be helpful in breaking the link of negative policy vicious cycle.

  • A significant rise in product-liability cost is expected due to the newly passed product liability amendment Bill approved during the assembly plenary session on March 30, 2017. Korean government legal service(KGLS) filed a damage suit against Korea aerospace industries, Ltd.(KAI) and Hanwha Techwin Co., Ltd., the manufactures of the KUH-1 Surion helicopter crashed. KGLS alleged claims under the product liability Act, the warrant liability Act and the non-performance of contract act. The accountability limits of military aircraft manufacturers was a highly divisive issue among related scholars and legal practitioners. The bottom line was that military aircraft manufacturers had no product-liability insurance available. The United States courts have, therefore, developed the government contractor defense(GCD) and it was recognized by the U.S. Supreme Court in Boyle v. United Technologies corporation(1988). product liability insurances for military aircraft manufacturers are excessively expensive and it cannot be added onto the military procurement cost accounting. However, having an aircraft accident without one can be ruinously expensive. Therefore, the manufacturers should promptly set up appropriate risk management measures. This thesis will first review the advance GCD theory, and then find a way to either reform government contract related regulations.
