The Conditions of Good life and Sustainable Society:
A Study on Korean Integrative Socio-economic System
This study aims to find an alternative Korean economic model that can break the vicious cycle and implement good life and sustainable social environment by diagnosing the national misery and unsustainable crisis facing Korean society macro-microscopically, and in various areas, and trying the Great Transformation from the dilemma that causes the unsustainable crisis.
The primary research plan for the first year was the theoretical review and problem analysis of the conditions of happiness and sustainable society, and the major detailed plan was carried out with a total of five research questions. According to this plan, research achievements such as publication of books, research papers, and academic presentations were published.
Taking advantage of the characteristics of interdisciplinary research composed of various majors, the research team held a brief study meeting, and related experts were invited to hold seminars. We looked at each of the five detailed topics.
1) One research paper is under examination for the study of the impact of the national public policy on good life and sustainable society, and one academic presentation and one book were studied. 2) Two academic presentations and one research paper were published on the subject of inequality in Korean society. 3) The panel analysis study, which determines the satisfaction level of life between generations, has published its first academic presentation and is currently under review for research papers. 4) Research on family types and happiness determinants of each generation analyzed in the context of the socio-economic model is being reviewed once in an academic presentation. 5) The analysis of the integrated generation harmonization plan of environmental regulations and sustainable society was published twice.
A Study on the second year of plan subject. First, two type of bonding for site study of the economic growth and social solidarity (Comparison of integrated national control, and capital models and social economic model), with each model. A Comparative Study on the (Japan, Spain, Sweden, Spain, etc.) typical example plans.
Second, income inequality (labor market and of international comparisons of welfare reform) diagnosis and prescription of quantitative data analysis and national case studies to carry out.
Third, the International Comparison Study on the conditions of sustainable society, risk to respond to social capital in accordance with the role of public trust as a society with different development path. To test hypotheses about the social performance.
Fourth, we want to analyze the life satisfaction of two different national groups, which can be compared with the international comparative analysis, which is the determinant of life satisfaction, from a micro-view, and to compare and analyze in-depth the differences in the process of forming the people's life satisfaction in systems or environments with different national differences.
Finally, family type and generation happiness determination in the context of social economy model Analyze phosphorus. As in the first year, the theoretical framework that individual happiness is related to social quality is applied, and the focus is on family as a social resource, and it is intended to be divided into family types.
During the second year's research period, we systematically analyzed the current status of Korea for international comparison and then conducted comparative studies between countries using the relevant research results, and published a total of 10 research results (eight academic papers published and two academic conferences published) in five detailed fields.
In addition, a joint seminar was held with researchers from the International Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), which continues to present the results of its research on the level of happiness between countries and related issues, and an in-depth discussion on related topics. Continued collaboration with local experts was planned in the course of developing the papers discussed through the seminar and socioeconomic models applicable to our society.
Recognizing the need for a second "great transition" in Korean society, the first research topic of the third year's research plan is to explore ways of "path-shifting" or "path-breaking" to change the existing path to a new one.
It critically reviews the experiences of Korean society and Japanese society.
Among the experiences of Nordic countries, we want to find alternatives for sustainable development of Korean society by paying attention to the consensus politics between forces and the flexible safety model formed through this.
To this end, we want to understand the conceptual map on the definition of "happiness," what "happiness" means in Korean society and Koreans talk about, and where it is located on the conceptual map.
In addition, by identifying the location of the people's "happiness" pursued by the state in this conceptual happiness map, the government intends to present a desirable direction along with the analysis of the status of the "happiness" policy.
In addition, a combination of an investigation into the sustainability of the Korean society awareness and understanding social unrest, factors that make a (economic, social, population, crime, society's values, such as low birth rates, etc.).A Study on, to make a sustainable society, to use this as a material basis for policy making. Based on the individual happiness does not fall into misfortune that leads to the quality of life A Study on the following will raise the quality of policy, social policies, and happy lives. Index to develop a sustainable society.
The third research topic compares and analyzes the background and model characteristics of foreign basic income introduction, such as Netherlands, Finland, and Canada, which are considering the introduction of the basic income system or have decided to experiment.
It checks the tasks for introducing basic income into Korean society through the acceptance of the basic income system by the Korean people and the survey on the perception of working behavior when introducing the system. Basic income was considered as an alternative by conducting a simulation analysis of the ripple effect (economic effects such as labor supply, finance, consumption and production) on the introduction of basic income.
Finally, we looked at the cases of environmental-related economic incentives in major OECD countries and looked at the environment-friendly energy tax system and pro-exchange economic products tax support (low-rate application of electric vehicles, reduction of value-added tax rates for pro-exchange economic products, tax refunds for energy-efficient products, and individual or corporate tax benefits for certain eco-friendly expenditures).
Through this, the government intends to establish a sustainable society for the improvement of the quality of life in the future by establishing policies for consumer and producer's economic activities on air pollution, climate change, and energy efficiency, such as expanding the market for real investment and clean products, saving energy, and proposing policy alternatives for sustainable consumption and production in response to the new climate system.
