지속가능한 도시재생을 위한 마을생태계에 관한 연구

Abstract

(Background and Purpose) The direction of urban regeneration, which began in the 1990s in the West, has changed to emphasize identity and locality in line with urban sustainability. However, criticism is constantly being raised about whether the results of urban regeneration in Korea contain regional identities and whether they are sustainable. The purpose of this study is to reconsider the concepts of village, place, and placeness from the perspective of sustainable urban identity, examine past urban regeneration projects with critical thinking, and propose steps for creating a village ecosystem for sustainable urban regeneration. (Method) First, the direction and limitations of domestic urban regeneration are mentioned through literature research, and the concept of the village as a unit of urban regeneration is reconsidered. Second, it criticizes the village development project implemented in Korea by comparing it with the village development project in Japan. Thirdly, the concepts of place and placeness are organized through theoretical consideration, and the local and village ecosystems are compared from the perspective of sustainable regional revitalization. Lastly, the steps for creating a village ecosystem for sustainable urban regeneration are proposed. (Results) Domestic urban regeneration is being criticized for not properly reflecting regional identity, and the importance of urban regeneration centered on 'place' is emerged. A village is a local ecosystem with a common identity and is a space with an identity that can be recognized by its constituents. However, domestic village development projects did not reflect the unique characteristics of the region and were concentrated on specific projects. When a place has meaning and value, a sense of place is formed and identity is expressed through this. A village has both an identity created by people who feel they belong to the place and an identity of the place. Today, regional identity is being further emphasized through the concept of local, and through this, regional revitalization is sought. A village identity formed from a well-established village ecosystem can be developed into a village business utilizing local specialization, which can lead to regional revitalization. And a village ecosystem that is solidly created from within in this way can be maintained more sustainably than a government-led village project or a village business run by external experts. (Conclusions) A village based on identity and sense of place, rather than an administrative district unit, should be the basic unit of urban regeneration. Regeneration must take an integrated approach to evenly develop all the elements that make up the village ecosystem. The government and external experts should serve as a guide to help residents find their village's unique identity on their own and should aim to create a village ecosystem that allows them to become independent from government support.
