철도 역명 제정 및 개정에 관한 사회적 갈등 양상과 합리적 해결 방안 연구

Abstract

In modern society, railways are Korea's core means of transportation that provide equitable convenience to all citizens, making a profound contribution to the welfare of the people. The railway station is not just a point where trains stop, but also a place of history and culture that informs an area, a place where various cultural events and social exchanges take place, and a space for various commercial and economic activities. Therefore, the station name, the name of the railway station, is very symbolic and has a complex influence in history, culture, society, and economy. The enactment or revision of the station name is a key means of transportation that contributes to the welfare of the people, and the task is to be reasonably and objectively improved in consideration of the symbolic and complex influence and ripple effect of the railway station name involved in regional identity. This paper aims to improve the standard of route name, station name, and station name bookkeeping that meets public satisfaction and expectations by improving the standard of reasonable railway line name, station name, and station name bookkeeping. The public's interest in railway station names is growing more than ever, and measures to improve objective standards were proposed not only by preventing unnecessary conflicts between different local governments and social organizations, but also by reviewing reasonable station names and standards for station bookkeeping to meet public interest and expectations. In this analysis, a plan was also suggested to consider the historical meaning of the railway station name together.
