This study aims to find a solution for the vitalization of the community development and resident's participation based on the voluntary participation and cooperation and their needs through the survey on the reality of resident's participation in community development project in the era of local autonomy. To vitalize resident‘s participation in community development in the future, I suggested some solutions as follows.Above all, resident's participation should be motivated positively, and their participation should be guaranteed practically from the stage of selection of development project and the establishment of plans. As far as local development project, government-initiative system should be changed into residents-initiative system. In addition, as the method of resident's participation, ‘positive participation’ through resident's organizations or civil organs is desirable as well as through internet.

Urban areas are composed of various urban functions, the structure of which shapes spatial influences of the area. The structure of urban functions can be viewed in three different ways; Quantitative, dimensional, qualitative aspects. Lots of researches have been made into spatial influence of the central areas in the cities, but most of them were focused mainly on the quantitative and dimensional features of central areas, not on the qualitative features being increasingly significant in the present cities. To present a basis to quality-oriented approaches, this paper focuses on establishing an index to measure how much qualified an urban function is. We investigated on the basic concept of qualitative difference shown in Berry's theories, and as a result of this, 'Functional Quality Index' was proposed to measure spatial influence of each urban function. Based on the responsiveness of increasing trend of functions as the market size became large, this index was considered to be appropriate in measuring qualitative difference between urban functions and was applied to major 90 major urban functions in Korean cities. The result was also used in some investigations on the functional characteristics and structure of major centers of Seoul, thus we could find some usefulness of this index in related studies and researches.

Today, the non-governmental organizations and other private actors are showing greater concerns and in fact hold high stakes in the new town planning process. Therefore, the planning processes have become more complex in that administration and planners can no longer treat the planning of new town development in a one-sided way, and so new planning models are required. This research intends to find out a theoretical base for a planning process from collaborative planning theory and evaluates the planning process of Si hwa new town development where 'the sustainable development conference' was introduced. The distinct difference between Si hwa new town planning model and the existing new town planning model is that there are new stakeholders such as environmental group that participate in the planning process. At the above-mentioned conference, participants had equal authorities in making decisions and the conference could secure a clearness of planning through opening the process of planning and result of meeting. Comparing the planning process before and after the conference was held, the perception of participants were changed after introducing the conference, and participants showed agreement with the development principle, the number of the inhabits, a golf course, ecology network and so on. It provided invaluable information on ways to improve the quality of urban environment through collaborative planning.

This research is a study of the structural analysis of the Seongju melon cluster. In order to undertake this study, 6 components of Seongju melon cluster were selected: agglomeration economy, labor market, networking, embeddedness, collective learning, and governance. Also, this study utilized multiple regression analysis for analyzing the impact of the 6 components on innovation performance. A questionnaire (based on a scale of 1-5) was completed by melon farmers and people working in related enterprises and support agencies. The questionnaire was administered between March 22, 2006 and April 1, 2006.The results of the analysis of the survey data are as follows: embeddedness(3.60), agglomeration economy(3.45), governance(3.42), and labor market(3.27). Of the 6 components, the analysis reveals that embeddedness, agglomeration economy, governance, and labor market are relatively well established. Also, a second observation pertains to the impact on innovation performance. The influence coefficient is 0.59677. In this study, the Seongju melon cluster is characterized as a simple agglomeration locale.

The regional space of Korea tends to be dilapidated, paradoxically due to the Korean government's new territorial policy. This may be because of the transformation of regional space from an 'extensive space' to 'intensive space', in link to the change of Korean capitalism. The way-out from this spatial dilemma is to bring about a new ecologist paradigm of regional development, focusing on the ecological revitalization of regional space.

The purpose of this paper is to examine conflicts between public parties in public rented housing programs. The Korean government has implemented one million rental housing program to solve low-income housing problems since 2003. A clash of interests, values, actions or directions often sparks a conflict. One should not confuse the distinction between the presence and absence of conflict with the difference between competition and co-operation. In competitive situations, the two or more parties each have mutually inconsistent goals, so that when either party tries to reach their goal it will undermine the attempts of the other to reach theirs. The main causes of conflicts between public agencies are due to the unreality of schedule, shortage of fiancing, unclear shared responsibility. We try to examine conflict management in the case of public rental housing program through the concept of governance. We do believe that the concept of 'governance' should be applied to solve the problems of conflicts. A fair governance implies that mechanisms function in a way that allows the agents to respect the rights and interests of the stakeholders, in a spirit of democracy. It has also been used to describe the "proper functioning of institutions and their acceptance by the public". And it has been used to invoke the efficacy of government and the achievement of consensus by democratic means (participation).

Regional Assemblies throughout England are now in the final stage of preparing Integrated Regional Strategy Framework. The IRS Framework ensures that regional strategies and policies are not prepared in isolation but in a consistent and integrated way. This article examines the role and structure of the IRS Framework in the system of regional strategies, and investigates the way in which it integrates the regional strategies including Regional Economic Strategy and Regional Spatial Strategy. Based on the analysis of the government guidelines and planning practices of East Midlands and South East England, this article suggests some policy issues to be solved in IRS. In particular issues such as compromising visions and objectives, ex post integration, regional governance system, centralization, minority control, and delivery are discussed. Also, some policy implications of the IRS Framework are suggested for the regional comprehensive planning system in Korea.

The objective of this study is to analyze the factors which determine the quotation prices of the stores located within apartment complexes. The samples are 634 stores located within the 158 apartment complexes. Six regression functional forms based on the hedonic model were used to analyze the factors. The estimation result showed that the double logarithm model was the most desirable model from various statistical criteria. The factors which affected the store price positively include floor location, nearby apartment price level, whether the store is adjacent to a large street, main entry, size of the apartment complex, and number of schools. The factors such as store size, existence of traditional market, and distance to a nearby subway station affected the store price negatively.The factors which command a higher store price are interpreted as follows: When a store is located at the first floor and near the main entry of the apartment complex, it has a high degree of accessibility; A store which is adjacent to a large street can attract neighbors and casual customers as well as apartment residents. A high level of an apartment price resulted in a high store price, whereas the existence of a traditional market affected the store price in the negative. These estimation results are consistent with conventional wisdoms in the real estate businesses.This study shows that, in investing in an apartment complex store, internal factors should be considered first instead of external factors. It also stresses the importance of conventional factors in purchasing a store within an apartment complex.

This study uses DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) to calculate the comparative efficiency of SOC (Social Overhead Capital) improvement program in regional development policy. Generally, regional development policy is charged of a large proportion of supply on public investment capitals. Data envelopment analysis is widely used to evaluate how efficiently regional development policy supply the social overhead capital for the regional economics. In this study, the efficiency of social overhead capital is calculated by the linear function of input and output factors. Especially, this study used time series data for input factors from annual reports of social overhead capital.In this study, the existing mathematical analysis methods which are DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis), PFP (Partial Factor Productivity), TFP (Total Factor Productivity), are reviewed and DEA is selected to calculate the efficiency for SOC. Among the regional social overhead capital, trade ports are selected and reviewed for regional development policy, because trade ports are major factor on the SOC of regional development policy. Also, an analysis of slack variables is accomplished as a one of linear program method. The results of this study suggested the input and output factors of slack variable needs to be adjusted to the efficiency between regional development policy and suggested to the investment program for social overhead capital.

The purpose of the study is to analyze the characteristics of the tenant mix in the retail and entertainment mixed-use facility, focusing on the distinction of 3 consumption mode retailing, dining and entertainment. Using 'converted relative ratio of leasible area', the coexisting ratio of retailing(R) vs dining(D) vs entertainment(D) in the retail and entertainment mixed-use facilities is found 3 : 1 : 1. Through the 28 case study, the typical anchor tenant composition of each 3 consumption mode as major character of the tenant mix in the retail and entertainment mixed-use facilities are at least one of department store, GMS and discount store ; R, both of franchised restaurant and foodcourt ; D, multiplex with or without either amusement center or game center E. And a1so, the coexisting ratio of the typical composition is about 55 : 21 24

1997년 아시아 금융위기와 후속된 규제완화 이후, 국내 금융기관들은 주택담보대출 부문에 대한 여신을 확대하기 시작하였다. 이에 따라 주택담보대출의 규모는 급속하게 증가하였으나, 이와 관련된 채무불이행 위험에 대한 연구와 관심은 관련 자료의 부족과 연구 기반의 미흡으로 아직 초기 단계에 있는 것이 사실이다. 이 연구는 이러한 상황 하에서 금융기관이 주택담보대출의 주요 기준으로 사용하고 있는 담보인정비율(Loan to Value ratio: LTV)이 채무불이행에 미치는 영향과 그 한계를 보완할 수 있는 차입자의 속성은 무엇인지를 파악하기 위하여 이루어졌다. 국내 최대 주택담보대출기관인 국민은행의 2001년부터 2003년 사이의 기간 동안의 주택구입자금대출 자료와 고객관계관리(CRM) 자료를 결합하여 기술적 분석과 로짓회귀모형을 이용한 분석을 시도하였다. 이와 같은 분석을 통하여 다음과 같은 세가지를 발견하게 되었다. 첫째, LTV는 주택담보대출 채무불이행에 주요한 정보를 제공하여 준다. 높은 LTV의 주택담보대출은 채무불이행과 정의 상관관계를 보인다. 둘째, 대출시의 이자율은 채무불이행과 높은 관련성을 보인다. 높은 LTV로 대출을 받은 경우에 더 높은 대출금리가 적용되었을 가능성이 크다. 셋째, LTV가 특정임계치를 초과하는 경우는 LTV보다 주택신용보증서를 활용했는지가 채무불이행을 더 잘 설명해준다. 이 연구에 사용된 자료에서는 LTV가 90%를 초과하는 차입자의 경우 LTV가 채무불이행 위험과 통계적으로 유의하지 않은 것으로 추정되었다.

A residential area, which can account for the highest area ratio of a city, can have a great effect on the formation process of land use patterns. For instance, single-family complexes among residential areas are formed over a certain period of time. The special feature of the land use pattern in a single-family area is the excessive mixture of commercial use, which may cause negative external effects including deterioration of the residential environment and a decline in hosing prices. This study presents positive data as a remedy measure for the single-family complexes by examining the status quo of the mixture of commercial use and the formation process of the land use pattern in Bun-dang New Town. The indices and the figures of land use pattern are analysed by the types of single-family area classified by the distance from the subway stations. The study results indicate the following facts. First, the formation of single-family complexes can be divided into the initial, the rapid growth and completion phases. Secondly, the curve of the growth ratio of single-family complexes assumes an "S" form. The CR ratios based on the types of single-family complexes are 3.4, 2.4, 0.3 respectively. Thirdly, the commercial uses mixed in single-family complexes include restaurants, offices, retailers in ratio order. Fourth, the change in land use ratio is characterized by the decline in the numbers of retailers and the increase in the restaurants. Finally, the formation process of land use patterns can be classified into the commercial use-dominant type and the residential use-dominant type.
