Abstract

It is true that the basic rights of the elderly have been dealt with as part of the state's granting area under the alienated and discriminatory concept of 'elderly', and have been passively discussed in the basic rights guarantee system of the socially underprivileged. In the current situation with a super-aged society at hand, it should be avoided to dismiss the basic rights of the elderly as a non-mainstream area. The state sets the guarantee of the basic rights of the elderly and the establishment of a legal system for this as the top priority agenda, actively discusses them from the perspective of age integration and social integration, and is currently a mainstream solution to solve various social issues such as the intelligent information society and the aging society. As a means, we will have to discuss the basic rights of the elderly. Even in establishing a legal system that guarantees the basic rights of the elderly, it is necessary to introduce a method of solving other problems centering on issues related to the elderly, rather than approaching the problems of the elderly incidentally or incidentally in the process of solving other problems. It is necessary to improve the overall legal system in order to manage and adjust the issues related to the basic rights of the elderly, which are mixed through the dispersed basic rights system and the legal system, in an integrated system. Currently, the dispersion of the right to claim for benefits to guarantee the right to live as a human being, the mixed guarantee system for the right to housing, health, work, and education, and the resulting policy confusion and conflict are causing other problems in the legal system and social problems. Ultimately, it is necessary to form a framework for integration by absorbing various dispersed laws and policies for the elderly into one system. In this process, it is also necessary to guarantee the right to access legal information, which is the basis for realizing other basic rights. Until now, the senior citizen policy was only a minor part of the general policy for the general public, so-called minority policy, but now it has to become a majority policy as a major policy. Organizational structure is also necessary. I would like to propose the enactment of the 'Basic Act on the Elderly' with all these contents. The 'Framework Act on the Elderly' includes the concept of the elderly, the promotion system for the elderly policies, a dedicated promotion body, the contents of the special basic rights recognized by the elderly (right to access statutory information, right to claim benefits such as pensions, housing rights, health rights, work rights, education rights, etc.) Securing security, establishing a delivery system, and means of remedy in case of violation of the basic rights of the elderly should be specified.
