초록
‘Politics’ can never be excluded from human society because politics plays the most essential role in development and the transition process regardless of whether that role is positive or negative. The Korean public distrusts politics and the political system, but this low trust is not a recent phenomenon. Confrontations and conflicts based on particular groups and political factions must be urgently addressed and solved. Low credibility and high distrust cannot be fixed with proper policies and improving the efficiency of government administration. National policy and government administration need to be continuously adjusted to fit the environment and changing trends. To increase the level of trust in Korean politics, a fundamental approach is required. There are several ways to restore public trust in Korean politics, such as improving the efficiency of the political system or addressing welfare issues, the primary concerns of the people, along with creating a clear and transparent decision-making process, and reforming or restructuring the current two-party system. Fundamentally, however, the restoration of trust in the Korean political system requires ethical behavior. Restoring trust by improving ethics will be difficult to achieve in a short period of time; it is the most realistic alternative over time, however.
Abstract
‘Politics’ can never be excluded from human society because politics plays the most essential role in development and the transition process regardless of whether that role is positive or negative. The Korean public distrusts politics and the political system, but this low trust is not a recent phenomenon. Confrontations and conflicts based on particular groups and political factions must be urgently addressed and solved. Low credibility and high distrust cannot be fixed with proper policies and improving the efficiency of government administration. National policy and government administration need to be continuously adjusted to fit the environment and changing trends. To increase the level of trust in Korean politics, a fundamental approach is required. There are several ways to restore public trust in Korean politics, such as improving the efficiency of the political system or addressing welfare issues, the primary concerns of the people, along with creating a clear and transparent decision-making process, and reforming or restructuring the current two-party system. Fundamentally, however, the restoration of trust in the Korean political system requires ethical behavior. Restoring trust by improving ethics will be difficult to achieve in a short period of time; it is the most realistic alternative over time, however.
