제주 4·3사건 이후 공동체 안전과 회복력에 관한 연구 -불신과 갈등에서 상생과 발전으로-

Abstract

The safety of the community was examined mainly by the fear, conflict, mistrust, and frustration that spread in the community after the 4·3 incident. The 4·3 incident that residents remember was the first painful memory of the "Massacre" before the political or social movement character. In particular, the residents who suffered from the 4·3 incident themselves remembered that 100% of it was the "Massacre." As such, even after the end of the 4·3 incident, the memories of 4·3 were filled with "pain" and "fear." Moreover, 80% of the direct victims of the 4·3 incident in particular said "violence and suffering." After the 4·3 incident, complex relationships such as grudges were formed between village community members, and conflicts also emerged between the villagers. After the 4·3 incident, faith in the police, administrative authorities, or public institutions, plummeted, and the distrust of the affected residents who experienced the 4·3 incident was very high. These conditions weakened the sense of community belonging and hindered its development. However, the community had the task of rebuilding and developing again after the collapse after the closure of the incident. Before securing the material resources of the community, the will of the villagers to work together to achieve the development of the village and the belief that such efforts would bring good results. The will and faith of the villages surveyed were high. Regardless of gender, age, or type of damage, the villagers had a strong will to resolve and overcome the inherent conflicts after the 4·3 incident and the will to solve problems. As a result of the joint efforts of the villagers and the bereaved families who experienced the 4·3 incident to achieve the development of the village beyond 4·3, the community has recovered from its wounds and made remarkable progress in the local area more than 20 years later. The 4·3 incident was an unfortunate historical event that had a great impact on the disappearance and disintegration of the community. The peaceful community was reduced to a region of antagonism and conflict for seven years and seven months. The second half of the 20th century, a time of destruction and restoration of village communities, was dominated by the principle of individual and community security. Perhaps the experiences and memories of the 4·3 incident also acted as a fundamental factor in community development, strengthening the cohesion within the community, influencing the prevention of recurrence and the formation of volitional attitudes for village development.
