지방자치단체의 학습도시 정책 수용 분석

Abstract

This study was attempted to analyze learning city policies performed by the local government in Korea. Its analysis is focused on theoretical models about how to evaluate the process of policy formation for learning cities or villages, on how much the project to build a learning society is effectively planned and practiced by the local government as a wide range of regional development strategies at the time of globalization and information, and on the changes that municipalities and local administrators must make in order to improve their projects whereby individual learning becomes competitive advantage for regional and national development. As a study result, it reveals that local government authorities and organizations lacked autonomy, since they tended to construct learning towns or villages according to a guideline made by the central government. For this reason, there is few lifelong learning management systems which were constructed by human, educational, and material resources with community people living in the region. And the local government failed to form partnership and networks among administrative authorities, universities, research institutions, business enterprises, social activist groups, and so on. Thereupon, it might be said that developing a sustainable learning city depends on establishing policy feedback and dweller participation as well as on forming partnership and networks.
