21세기에는 본격적인 노인시대가 열릴 전망으로, 인구학적 변화에 따른 보건복지 국가정책방향에 대한 노인 작업치료의 효율적인 준비가 절대적으로 필요하다. 먼저 고령화 사회로 진입한 일본에서의 작업치료가 국가의 복지서비스방향에 따라서 변화하고 발전해온 것을 참고하기 위하여 우리나라와 일본의 보건의료복지서비스 정책, 작업치료사의 연도별 추이, 취업 현황, 교육 상황을 비교 하여서 노인작업치료의 발전방향과 준비를 위한 기초 자료를 제시하고자 하였다.앞으로 우리나라의 노인보건의료정책이 급속한 고령화에 따른 제반문제에 효율적, 합리적으로 대처해 나가길 바라며, 노인작업치료가 이러한 사회적 변화를 주도해 나가기 위한 더 많은 연구가 진행되기를 바란다.

The term corrections is almost idendified with punishing. Especially the term is relatively new. Prior to the 1950s, the term penal system and penology were largely commented. These term usually pointed out the punishment focus placed on those convicted of crimes. It was not until 1954 that the American Prison Association changed its name to the American Correctional Association, what reflected a basic shift in the philosophy of correcting deviant and lawbreaker. In the historical overview of corrections and the criminal justice system, society has dealt with lawbreakers in a multitude of ways and has emphasized different goals and diverse methods to accomplish those goals. On those ways, we cannot overestimate the virtue of consciousness of sin and criminal`s will of reintegrating itself into the lawabiding society. The punishment and the intermediate sanctions should be proactive and focused on the needs of criminals and society itself. Crimianl should and can be changed to go back into the stream of society through awakening the consciousness of criminal culpability of convicted and inspiring wilfulness of being lawabiding citizens. The most appropriate way of corrections is based upon theoretical consideration, how society view criminals, how society treat criminals.

Occupational illness analyses are used to identify common factors contributing to occupational illness and to give recommendations for illness prevention. We discuss safety and health management policies based on the present status of MSDS(Musculoskeletal Disorders) characteristics and the actual safety and health problems. These results can be used to develop more effective occupational safety and health management policies for the prevention of MSDS.

The aim of this thesis is to evaluate visual art policy during Kookmin government period(1998-2002). In the beginning, many artists had expected president Kim Dae Jung to enlarge arts support But the evaluation of them was very negative vecause the government was only interested in the development of cultural industry. First, I analysed the government expenditure in the visual arts. Department of Culture and Tourism took the responsiblity of visual arts policy. The budget of art and culture increased to 1% of total government expenditure in this period. But the main factor was the increasement of cultural industry and tourism expenditure. The budget of visual arts in 2002 was only 6,600million won. Second, I analysed visual arts support programs. (1) The government introduced studio programs for the first time. For 5 years, 2 mational studios and 23 public studios were established. (2) The number of art museum was increased to 62. (3) It introduced alternative space supported 200million won annually. (4) percent for art scheme reduced from 1% to 0.7% of total construction cost, but still 27 public sculpture gardens were built. (5) Business support for visual arts reduced because of IMF. (6) Also arts marker froze and many commercial galleries were closed. (7) In order to revitalize region through arts and to promote international exchange of culture, Gwangju Biennale was created. Third, I analysed Arts Plan 2002. It had a radical Limitaion because it was established in the last year of Kookmin government period. Also it showed special favors to some arts organizations. In general, I think that positive outcomes are the introductions of the studio program and the alternative space support program. Especially alternative space support program enforced the diversity of visual arts, and encouraged creative young artists. But policy of art market failed because of IMF and visual artists had to go through rough times.

As part of a hierarchical production control system, a policy is proposed for the admittance for new parts to a flexible manufacturing system (FMS) together with two different heuristics for dynamic routing of parts. The heuristics that consider the process plan's flexibility with respect to machines and operations are based upon operating time and machine reliability. To quantify flexibility, it is developed a priority type of the measurement considering machine's reliability that incorporates all the job and machine characteristics that contribute to routing flexibility. HUR which considers machine reliability is applied to drive some simulated systems and compared with the HUS using SPT rule. It is found that HUR outperforms HUS using SPT in terms of makespan and machine utilization.

A probation system of death penalty can lie halfway between death penalty and life sentence. Since grotesque and crude murder cases continually happen in Korea, it is difficult to abolish death penalty right now. We need to introduce the probation system of death penalty, which may be regarded as an interim stage for abolishment of death penalty. I have investigated the current death penalty system in China and found the following problems: There are many kinds of crimes punishable by death penalty, the appropriate condition is not shown to apply the probation system of death penalty, and the number of execution is the largest in the world. However, the probation system of death penalty has the following advantages: It is a humanistic system to head for the return to society, a positive effect of correction can be anticipated during the probation, and danger of misjudgement can be minimized. Moreover, in regard to the probation system of death penalty, I have explored a range of probation judgement, the probation period, the screening procedures of application, and the cases of remission.
