북한사회복지정책의 역사적 배경 고찰 : 일제강점기에서 정권수립까지

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the background and factors behind the beginning of the North Korean social welfare system by tracing the historical dynamics during the early stages of the institutionalization of social welfare in North Korea. The scope of this analysis is mainly from the Japanese occupation before liberation to the working period of the Provisional People's Committee of North Korea after liberation. This study adopted a literature research method with a historical description approach. The results of the analysis are as follows: First, it was found that there somewhat existed the reciprocity and causality as well as the connection among each independence movement organization and each side. During the Japanese occupation, independence movement organizations showed their interests both in independence movement and social welfare. Secon, in the case of North Korea, there are clear traces of their efforts to succeed and apply the welfare policies of the socialist side. From the establishment of the regime, North Korea tried to introduce and apply social welfare policies based on their ideological backgrounds, and above all, their policies were established upon the welfare policies of the socialist side.
